Or are you learning the lesson's that it's teachin ...

The Rambam writes the purpose of the fast is to get us to remember the bad deeds that caused the destruction and then accept upon ourselves to fix them. The main cause of the churban was people hating each other. If our bitachon in Hashem would be stronger, there would be no room for hatred because we would believe b'emunah shelemah that everything…

If a person is trying to do something good but roadblocks get in his way, it's very easy to turn the other way and take the simple road. But if the person does that, he'll never know what he could have accomplished had he faced the challenge head on. Good things come with difficulty. All beginnings are hard. Statements like these should give us chi…

The pasuk says the reason that Hashem gave the Jewish People mann in the desert was למען הודיעך כי לא על הלחם לבדו יחיה האדם כי על כל מוצא פי ה' יחיה האדם . Meaning, to teach us that man does not live on bread alone, but rather on everything that comes from the mouth of Hashem does man live. It seems to us that the body is able to function when a p…

When someone is in need of money and he doesn't have a natural means to obtain it, it can become a very painful experience. The person will most likely worry about his expenses every waking moment. He'll have trouble sleeping at night and concentrating on anything else during the day. However, if he works hard to strengthen his emunah, he can turn …

If a person does a good deed and gets positive feedback for what he did, that gives him the strength to make the effort to do that deed again. The greatest type of deed that a person could do is one that nobody knows about. But if no one knows about it, how is he going to get that positive feedback? The answer is with emunah. We know Hashem is watc…

How does emunah come into play when it comes to the idea of loving our fellow Jew? First and foremost, someone who has emunah wants to do the will of Hashem to the best of his ability. There are numerous mitzvot in the Torah regarding not hating others, but rather loving them. If someone fully believes in Hashem, he'll overcome his inclinations tow…

Living Emunah 2620 How to Deal with Difficulties If a person is given a very difficult situation to deal with, having emunah does not mean that the person just says, "There's nothing to worry about. I know Hashem is with me. Everything will be fine." It is true that Hashem could take the person out of the difficulty in the blink of an eye, but it d…

At the end of parashat Devarim, when the Jewish people were getting ready to conquer Eretz Yisrael, Moshe Rabbenu told them, לא תיראום כי כי ה' אלוקיכם הוא הנילחם לכם - Don't be afraid of the opposing nations, because Hashem your God will be the One fighting for you. Immediately after that, the pasuk says, ואתחנן אל ה' בעת ההיא לאמר - Moshe prayed …

I read a story about an avrech who was going through a very difficult time in his life. He called his rabbi to pour out his heart in the hope of getting chizuk .

We are now in the shavuah shechal bo Tisha B'Av and it is incumbent upon us to try to feel some of the pain of the Shechina that is still in exile after so many years.

Chazal tell us, from the moment the Jewish People went into exile, the Shechina Hakedosha also went into exile. When we mourn over the destruction of the Beit HaMikdash , we are mourning over the pain of the Shechina . I heard a mashal to explain of a prince who was caught committing a terrible crime. He was brought to court and found guilty on all…

The Beit HaMikdash was destroyed because of sinat chinam , which is usually translated to mean baseless hatred. Rav Elya Lopian writes, any hatred which is not sanctioned by halacha is called baseless. Many times people justify why they are permitted to hate another individual. They may even convince themselves that it is a mitzvah to hate. But in …

Every Erev Tisha B'Av, Rabbi Shalom Tavi would tell his family, "B'ezrat Hashem, this is going to be the last Tisha B'Av." He would say those words with a true longing for the Geula.

The Talmud Yerushalmi in Masechet Yoma says the reason the Bet HaMikdash was destroyed was because the people at the time were chasing money and had baseless hatred. The question was asked, what is the connection between these two? Rabbi Matisiyahu Solomon explained, the people were chasing after their friend's money. It was their jealousy which le…

It says in the Reshit Chochma that the true determinant whether a person is considered a tzaddik is from the way he deals with others when it comes to money.

In parashat Matot , we read about the war that the Jewish People waged against Midyan. A thousand people were chosen from each tribe to be the soldiers to fight the battle.

There's a mitzvah from the Torah to love Hashem. The Pele Yoetz writes, someone who loves Hashem would choose to do His will even if he would lose as a result. If he would be told that for doing mitzvot he would be punished and for doing averot he would be rewarded, but Hashem's will is for him to do mitzvot, it would be a no-brainer – he would do …

Getting frustrated or angry portrays a lack of emunah. If we really believe everything that happens is from Hashem for our best, there's never a reason to get angry. One of the ways that we can improve is by at least outwardly reacting with emunah. Whenever we feel that we're about to get upset, we should turn it around by saying thank you to Hashe…

In this week’s parasha , we read about the reward of Pinchas for his heroic act which stopped a plague and brought peace between the Jewish People and Hashem. Normally, an act of killing would make a person lose his privileges as a Kohen, but in this case it was just the opposite. It elevated Pinchas to become a Kohen, because his intentions were s…

Improving in any area of Torah and mitzvot is always beneficial. Sometimes people accept upon themselves to do something they weren't doing yet as a hakarat hatov , to thank Hashem for a blessing that He gave them. Sometimes it's because they have a great need and are hoping that in the zechut of what they accept, they will get what they need. Rega…

Our ability to remember or forget is b'yad Hashem. Like always, we're supposed to do our utmost to try and remember things. But we will only remember if Hashem says we should remember.
