For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L.
The value of Torah and Mitzvot is what makes the difference
between a glorious Talmid Chacham and a regular Jew on the street. Its not
about the length of the beard or the whiteness of the person’s Tallit or even
the value of the person’s suit. Its all in the heart. If you have two Jews filled with Torah the difference
between them is their intention, their kavanah,
their heart and soul into what they do.
On Lel Shabbat we will be enjoying the greatest Chag of the
year, Pesach 5772. This holiday is all about getting our heart into our
actions. Someone can look at Matzah and think: this is just a dry
piece of messed up bread. There is no need to eat more than 100 grams of this!
And what’s the big deal? So what?! A couple million people ran away from
Pharoah and there was some wind that cause the sea to split and then the waters
fell on the Egyptians. Woah!
But then you have a Talmid Chacham, with their eyes
sparkling with Kedusha and Emunah, oozing love for Hashem and Fear of the
Heavens all around them! They constantly crave the love of Hashem to come into
their soul and spread throughout the entire room. They look at Matzah and see
the freedom of having their humane desires under control, where they feel like
the Sons of our forefathers: Avarahm Yitzchak and Yaakov! They look at the
Marror and think of all the suffering Am Yisrael have went through and think
when will we have the zechut (privelige) to sacrifice a healthy animal to
Hashem to say thank you for everything!
It doesn’t stop here, it actually only begins in public. But
how much holiness and purity is in a Jew’s heart in private, how much does a
Jew thank Hashem in private?! Be’ezrat Hashem we need to reach a level where our Hearts are
devoted to Hashem, or at least that
we want to want our hearts to be devoted to Hashem and no other outside spiritual
force!
