Knowing of your feelings of pain towards HKBH, I am so so impressed that you turned to Him in your moment of weakness. Realize that this is growth and hold on to that!
I see that you are really giving the yh a hard time today! Not only did the fall lead you to Hashem, but his real goal is not so much the fall itself, but your reaction afterwards. You got it all wrong from mr yh perspective! You were mean to wallow in self pity over the fall, to get depressed and pull away from Hashem! WOW! You ended up giving the yh a few seconds, but gave Hashem infinite nachas. Keep Up the Good Work and wishes for a great shabbos

Sometimes its not enough to ask Hashem. Just give me a second to explain. Theres a concept of Hishtadlus and 'Ein Somchin Al Haneis'. We NEED to ask Hashem to help us but we need to show our real Ratzon through our actions. Its like if I sat here and asked Hashem to help me get a 100 on a test without studying. Trying123, youd think I'm crazy (am I right?). First ask then do then ask again. Next time you ask Hashem, do something to prove that you really want this. You know you can just use the Ratzon you have to get rid of this towards that. If you can use it to ask Hashem, you can surely do it to do some Hishtadlus. Have a great Shabbos. -Yiddle R' Yiddle, Thanks for taking the time, interest.... I've come to realize that not everything everyone says will resonate with me.... But we are all very different... I believe I gave it a fair shot, I honestly wanted to stop and pulled away.... but didn't win.... Lets agree to disagree.... Please keep on posting (even to me...  ) Waiting to hear more form you (although we'll most likely disagree on many issues.....) So what.... to Gehenim with our differnces...... Peace and Love Holy Bro.... |

(If I remember correctly.) Nothing great is achieved overnight, and with something as difficult as Shimras Einayim (dodgy spelling I think), it takes a whole lifetime. Therefore, don't be downcast. Instead, use every fall as an opportunity to evaluate what you could do better next time in order to AVOID repeating the same mistake. We all fall Trying, at some point or another. What pleases God is seeing us pick ourselves up and start climbing back up to greater heights. KUTGW and keep on trucking. TC, DL Thumbs up Brother ....
