CLD #392



For the Lyilui Nishmat of Avraham ben Ester & the Refua Shlema of Mordechai Tzvi ben Sara. Also for SHALOM in Eretz Yisrael!
Baruch Hashem we had the zchut to attend a live shiur given by Rav Eli Mansour shlit’a. With all the enthusiasm at such a late hour, it shows what a real Heart devoted to the Torah Hakdosha and Hashem needs to be like.
The Rav explained that Yom Kippur is like Hashem wrapping us with a clean white towel after cleaning us thoroughly from our stench of Bad Ma’asim (actions/sins). But even more so, he explained how our generation is part of a world order that is being overthrown, its actually the Yetzer Hara’s power. Baruch Hashem that we all have such strong Emunah (faith), because we can clearly see that Hashem is controlling the entire world with the constant changes that are taking place throughout the globe. Whether it be financial, power oriented, or simply the structure of society; everything is chaning before our eyes like never before.
The whole world is waiting for something. For Mashiach.
Rav Mansour explained it in a beautiful way, he simply said the time of the Mashiach is actually like musical chairs. We are in the time before the Music stops and everyone needs to find a chair quickly.
What is the ticket to our chair? The reservation in the times of the Mashiach to be ‘set’ and ‘hooked up’ so we are not left behind? Its actually the idea of Tshuva.
Repentance is key today! RIGHT NOW!
We can all deeply look into ourselves and reach a level so deep and personal and speak to G-d from that point. We just need to say: Hashem HELP ME want to get CLOSER to you! Help me understand that I am already so close to you and I am no different than any Tzadik. All I need to do is simply want to change and do real Tshuva, because in the end of the day, I am all alone and only I can decide what to do.
When someone does Tshuva, musical chairs does NOT exist, because there is room for everyone.

Its time to be REAL with ourselves and ask ourselves: Why am I in this world?
What is my purpose?

Bruchim HaBa’im (welcome) to Aseret Yemei Tshuva (10 days of Repentance). Welcome to the NEW YOU!
Yom Kippur is in 5 days. Are you ready?
