"Its All There!"
Parashas Behaaloscha
Summer is here! Hopefully more sun means more fun!
“This is the way to make the menorah. It was hammered out of gold .. like the way G-d showed it to Moshe so it was made.”
This tells us that Moshe was instructed to make the menorah by taking one pure piece of gold and hammering away, and somehow it came out the way G-d wanted it to.
This inspired me to have the following empowering thought.
We are all placed in this world with our own "deck of cards”; we each have different temperaments and tendencies. We have to keep “hammering” with what we have. Or, to put it more succinctly, we have all that we need to be exactly what G-d wants us to be. We don’t need anything else.
If we work hard at it and get in touch with ourselves, we can do it. We don’t need to wait for anyone or anything!
Have a beautiful Shabbos!
