TehillimZugger quoting from sefer Divrei tzadikim

Just In:
וכעי"ז ממש ראיתי בספר דביר המוצנע, אח"כ ראיתי בגליון הספר דברי צדיקים של אדם גדול אחד שכתב שם: בכמה ספרי אחרונים כוונו לפירוש זה
?דער באשעפער לאווט מיך אייביג. וויפיל לאוו איך עהם
My Creator loves me at all times. How great is my love for him?

Parshas Balak

איתן מושבך

The Midrash gives a mashal to a hunter who was pursuing a bird and the bird flew off and landed on a statue of the king. if he shoots an arrow it may damage the statue. if he throws a stone he would be guilty of stoning an image of the king and forfeit his life.

So to, Bilaam cursed Amalek and was trying to curse Yisro. Yisro went and joined Klal Yisrael, and thereby escaped Bilaam's clutches.

Question is how did the fact that Yisro joined klal yisrael similar to the bird sitting on the king's statue? Yisro did not merely sit in a different spot, he changed his entire lifestyle. The bird merely sat on a statue.

Must be that as soon as Yisro decided that he is joining klal yisrael he was considered to be 'on the King's statue' and could not be harmed, even though the process of giyur was far from complete.

Similarly, someone who sincerely accepts upon himself to do teshuva, is considered as being bound to the King and is under his protection.

We find that the yidden complained about the monn twice, once at the beggining of the 40 years in the desert (bilti el hamonn eineinu) and once at the very end (venafshenu katza balechem haklokeil).

Why did they complain only at these two instances?

the generation that left mitzrayim were accustomed to eating regular food and when they were put on a monn-diet they complained that it did not satisfy them because it did not look like food, even though it tasted like food it was missing the visual satisfaction (bilti el hamonn eineinu).

The generation who grew up in the desert never ate regular food and had no reason to complain. The generation at the end of the 40 years had to travel past the land of Edom and saw people eating regular food and therefore they complained as well.

The Brisker Maggid writes in Machazeh Einayim that there can be people who are immune from the wiles of the Yetzer Hara even without Hashem’s help. This, says the Eitz Yosef, can only be accomplished after years of dominating over the Yetzer Hara.

Beshalach-Shabbos SHIRA tuf shin ayin alef


KEEP ON TRUCKING

By:bardichev

This dvar Torah is dedicated to my good chver Zemiros Shabbos

May he see bracha vihatazlacha in all his endeavors

The place:Somewhere near Egypt

The time:chol hamoed
Pesach

The yidden are trapped in the deset

The Egyptian Cavalry all of it and all their legions. The entire Egyptian army are bearing down on the Jews
The jews are between a rock and a hard place

The only place they can go is forward

Slight issue homo-sapians are not amphibians.

What is there to do

No retreat
No where to turn

So the Jews do what Jews always do they pray!

Gevaldiggggg??

Nisht!

Hashem says why are you screaming

??

Speak to the people and tell them to get moving

YAYISOO-ee (vayisa-uu)

KEEP ON TRUCKING!!

Fregt bards

What was wrong with prayer?

There is  a huge lesson here

Huge

When facing a personal challenge

We can't say

I tried

I cried

I prayed

No no no

Do something posotive

Drive forward

Even if it means jumping into the sea

Vayisa-uu!!

Too often I see here on the forum. People are haunted by their own demons

Leave them behind you!! Ayyy they are chasing you?! Just keep on trucking!

Of course tefilla!but like Hashem says tefilla plus action

Like the Rupshotzers kugel

The rupshizer roov reb naftali horovitz talmid of the (chozeh)Lubliner

His rebbetzin was a bit stingy but a big tzaddekes

So she made a small kugel one potato. A small onion.  She put it in the oven. Took out her tehillim and began to daven that the kugel should "gelung"

While she was davening. The rebbe. Grabbed a sack of potatoes some huge onoins a dozen eggs. A jug of oil. Salt feffer ahhh

He added his rebbetzin bite size kugel to a huge kugel for all the chassidim

The rebbetzin finishes davening

Looks into the oven and beams as she says ,
Naftali lOok my tefilla worked!

The rebbe says "yes your tefilla along with my massim tovim"




Keep on trucking


With

All

The

Love

In

The

World

H&H

bardichev

Good Shabbos

Now, if we can only get Zemmy to post more often....especially his divrei torah, but even his food recipes would do.
