CLD #331

For the Lyilui Nishmat of Shahin Shmuel ben Hadassa & the Refua Shlema of Mordechai Tzvi ben Sara.
Unfortunately, I cannot find what I was looking for Baruch Hashem (and I think I know why but that’s a separate reason) or today’s CLD. It was something to do with the wording of a Pasuk either in Yehoshua or in our Perasha. Anyway, it first said something to do with Hashem and then something to do with us. I was going to explain that maybe the Pasuk speaks about Hashem before us is because in order for us to get to a place of success, we first need to realize that EVERYTHING is from Hashem and is in Hashem’s control.
However, I do have another little drasha for today’s CLD. I was speaking to someone recently and Baruch Hashem the person told me how bored they were from Tefillah (coming to shul and praying). I tried to explain to the person that Tefillah is one of the things that people do without knowing its importance and the vast amount of Ruchaniyut (spirituality) there is behind it (as it says in Masechet Brachot). Also, because we do not sit down and learn about the Tefillah (mainly the Amida), we end up just reading the words and moving on with our lives; but we do not understand the FACT that because of Tefillah we all are healthy, happy, have great families, and Baruch Hashem receive constant energy from Shamayim to continue living in the crazy world that we live in.

And besides the fact that in a couple of hours we will be enjoying and celebrating the testimony that Hashem created the world by sitting down at our Shabat table enjoying food, the Tefillah on Shabat is completely different. We say on Shabat that Shabat is the Mekor HaBracha (it is the foundation, center, of all blessings from Shamayim)!
So let’s continue receiving even more Shefa (spiritual energy) by going to Shul, and maybe asking your Rabbi a single question to define one phrase in Shabat’s Tefillah, so maybe you might begin to realize how deep and beautiful each syllable is!

SHABAT SHALOM!
