Hello everybody,I want to share a hasgacha that happened to me recently!
We all have learned seforim mussar chasidus but we find ourselves not doing anything with it!
Why is that?? Because we are just learning and saying wow that's so nice but we are not realizing that hashem has sent us these tzadikim to emulate them! And to daven that we should trust in them!
Now on to my story,. I was getting ready to open a emrie pinchos (Reb pinchos mekoritz) and before I opened it I said hashem please help me find the way to you!!! I then when ahead and opens the sender and low and behold I opened it to shar h'anavah!! So I'm like what does that have to do with my matzef in kadusha???
I start reading and I am fascinated by what says he is basically saying there that someone that's a bal gava is a n'euf, his Talmud Reb rafuel says there that without hashem helping him in his yiddishkiet then he is a meshumed!!!!
Then he goes on to say that hashem sends us nisyoenos to show us that we can't serve him without his help first he sends small nisyoenos and if you don't get the message that "hey sir, realize that you are not in charge"then he sends you bigger ones till he sends you a nisoyion with a woman chas vasalom!!!!!
I was amazed by this, we have tzadikim to show us the way we don't have to look elsewhere.
What it says here is that don't think when you have a nesoyen that you are not connected to hashem, hashem is sending it to you, why???To realize that you can't live without him!!
I would venture to state that all of us here are massive bal gavahs!!!!
Car gets stuck.
Kitchen ceiling springs a leak.
Basement caves in.
Building where you work gets blown up
(but you were at a bris BH!)
earthquake lays waste to your community
(but you were at a bris out of town BH!)
And if you
still don't get the message, then your female coworker
(who was also at a bris) arrives with a lower cut top and shorter pant-dress
(to the newly-renovated headquarters a town over. Your town was demolished, remember? Shucks)
Gevalt!!
