CLD #434

For the Refua Shlema of Mordechai Tzvi ben Sara & Binyamin ben Blanka.

Hashem loves us so much that even after we G-d forbid go out of our away to chase after our desires (that are against the Torah), He still accepts our Teshuva (repentance)! Which boss or teacher would accept an employee after revelaing secrets of the company to the competition? Which friend would forgive to a person who caused his girlfriend to leave him? Where is there a person who will take Mussar (rebuke) as a positive thing in life?

Hashem is the only one that has 100% FULL Rachamim (mercy) on us, His nation, His children: Am Yisrael. Where do we see an example of this? With the story of Yael and Sisra.

In Shoftim (Judges) Perek Dalet (4^th chapter) the Prophetess Devorah tells Barak to attack the Kingdom that was overruling the Jews for 20 years. They had 20 years of pain, suffering and cursing (kind of like what ahmadinejad does now in Iran with all the speeches cursing Israel). The Navi explains that Sisra went from being a general in a vast army of strong soldiers with powerful metal weapons of war to desperately in need for a place to hide from Israel’s army. Even before this Devorah told Barak (when the army was on top of the mountain/hill) to descend the mountain and they will still win the war with Sisra and his vast army! 
So what ended up happening with Sisra? Yael saw Sisra running away from the battlefield where Devorah and Balak were killing all the soldiers that were left from Sisra’s army. Yael invited Sisra into her tent, and let him sip milk before tucking him into bed. Yael took the spear/pole that held up her and her husband’s tent and stabbed Sisra in the face all the way into the ground (when he was fast asleep). This symbolizes the Jew’s ability to kill the Yetzer Hara is really in his/her OWN HANDS.

What else does this show us? Because of the Tefillah (prayer) of Am Yisrael begging Hashem for a Yeshuah, redemption; Hashem sent them Devorah (the prophetess) to instruct them how to kill the enemy of Israel and live in peace. Look how much a single Tefillah can do.

Our own personal remeption (from whatever suffering and pain we are currently going through) is so close to us. Unfortunately, we do not believe in ourselves enough to reach the level of confidence to know that Hashem listens to us ALL THE TIME. Once we will believe our Prayer is heard, then we will see the Yeshuah (redemption) in front of our eyes.

B’H we should all receive an intense boost of Emunah in Hashem ASAP!
