00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:01.760
Hey Chever, day 215.

00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:02.560
Today is Sunday.

00:00:02.640 --> 00:00:03.520
I hope you're doing well.

00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:05.440
We are continuing our Pelioids journey.

00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:09.359
We begin a brand new topic called Haftacha, trust in God.

00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:13.839
What does it mean to trust in God?

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:23.039
You know, on coins, dollar bills, it can say in God we trust, but the way that most of society lives shows that they don't really trust in God.

00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:26.160
So we're gonna learn the Pelioids' eitzah to us.

00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:26.879
What does it mean?

00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:29.199
He's gonna tell us what does it mean to trust in Hashem?

00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:30.719
It might not be what you think.

00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:31.199
Here we go.

00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:32.880
Havtacha he me the brucha.

00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:34.240
Trust is a blessed trait.

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:36.640
La gufsimcha, it brings joy to the body.

00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:39.920
Vila Nefesh Benucha, and it brings serenity to the soul.

00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.520
The inyan ha avtacha, the aspect of trust in God.

00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:53.280
It's not shah that a person believes and trusts that, oh, Hashem is going to do everything that I want, everything that I need or that I think I need.

00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:00.479
That's the person's trust.

00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:05.599
Sometimes his expectations will not be met.

00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:16.159
How many righteous people do we find that are actually suffering?

00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:20.319
They're going through a difficulty, a tragedy, a tragedy, a on Isaion.

00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:27.680
So it's not shot that, oh, just because somebody has trust in a shem, that means nothing bad, nothing um difficult will happen follow up.

00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:28.400
Right?

00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:30.159
Allah iqar havtacha.

00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:35.120
The primary that a person has is what?

00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:52.879
Shayyftah Bishem Hashem that a person trusts, the call the avday min shemai, litov vikame shemai gay tav leva of trust in Hashem means that a person understands that everything that God does is for not just the best, but my best.

00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:59.439
And that even though my eyes might not perceive it as such, it's revealed to him that goodness.

00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:04.719
We see with eyes that aren't so clear.

00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.400
We see something that's bad, which is good, or good, that which is which is bad.

00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:11.360
It's fascinating.

00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.599
People see with eyes that aren't clear.

00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:19.360
It's fascinating.

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:34.800
I don't know the exact studies, but it's definitely true that per uh, you know, like uh meaning per per the just regarding the society of of Yidin, especially Orthodox Yiddin wear glasses.

00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:48.240
There's um, you know, proportionately, I don't know, again, there's been studies on this, I don't I'm not quoting them exactly, you could look them up, but there's been these these studies showing that there's a very strong correlation between orthodox Jewry and and glasses.

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:53.919
So some people associate it with because they learn for for a long amount of time and they learn um text.

00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:59.919
So you know, you're looking closely at text, so that could, you know, make the eyes not as as good.

00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:03.840
Maybe, maybe that's part of it, but there's definitely a hashkacha behind it.

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:10.400
And you know, it's the yidden are given this innate you by by wearing glasses.

00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:18.400
Again, if you don't wear glasses, that's that's fine, you know, but you know, say thank thank you, thank Hashem, that you don't need glasses.

00:03:18.639 --> 00:03:20.879
Whether you had glasses, you got LASIK surgery.

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:25.919
Okay, bar Hashem, they have that they have these uh you know ways that we could fix.

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:33.840
But just the fact that like we have this physiologically speaking, we don't see so clearly, and it and it shed lights.

00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:40.560
It actually can help us in our batachum because we don't have to see clearly, but we could trust in the one who does.

00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.759
Anyways, just the thought, food for thought, something to think about.

00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:54.319
We we might see it, might not see it, that we don't see so clearly, but Hashem knows what's best for us.

00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:56.719
He knows what's good for us.

00:03:56.800 --> 00:04:02.719
So all of a person should willingly accept that which happens to him.

00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:16.720
A person should understand and realize that there's no bad that comes down from Shemaiim Rak Taive, only good.

00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.680
A person should throw and thrust on a cutter spargo his own burdens.

00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:29.920
He shouldn't spend feudal time to try to make God's will like his own.

00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:36.560
You don't shouldn't press the moment and be too exacting and extreme and live with stress.

00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:48.399
There's no such thing as a mikre hasman, accidents of time.

00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:53.439
Everything that happens is not a mikra, it's not a it's not a it's not a happenstance.

00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:54.800
We just read last week.

00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:58.800
It's not vayakar, it's not happenstance, it's vayikra to calling.

00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.879
It's it's a direct connection, it's a it's a shem who's orchestrating and doing ta.

00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:05.199
Veloyetar daksh rabbas.

00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:05.920
I just read that.

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:11.120
Is from God Vikhalasha.

00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.160
Yahweh Talakim Yasa Taivas, everything he does is for our best.

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.160
Nothing can hold with all the Kurdish brothers, nothing.

00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:22.160
He is a he's a shem.

00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:26.959
He's the all-knowing, the all-being, the all-powerful, and the all good bestowing.

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:31.920
The huh naisin kayaklas is hard on your shirt.

00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:36.959
Hashem gives us the ability to be successful.

00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:43.199
He performs the will of those who fear him without them having to think or overly exert ourselves.

00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:54.560
We're gonna conclude um with well not with the section, we're gonna you know continue tomorrow, but at least for today, that concludes our daily regimen of Pelioids and Hashem.

00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:57.439
Let's try and strive to trust in Hashem.

00:05:57.759 --> 00:05:58.319
All the best.
