Wait for the Real Party

While in Israel, I heard a beautiful thought from Rav Shraga Shteinman, son of the famous Rav Shteinman, who passed away not long ago. In Parashat Behukotay, (Vayikra 26,9) Hashem says, ‎ וּפָנִ֣יתִי אֲלֵיכֶ֔ם w hich literally means, I will turn towards them. But Rashi says that it can also mean fr…

Standing on Principle

In the Artscroll book on Rav Shteinman (page 361) there is a beautiful story about what’s important and what isn’t.

Everything We Have

The Gemara says in Masechet Berachot daf 55b, if a person had a dream and he is worried it is a bad dream, but he doesn’t remember what he dreamed, he should go to shul and, during Birkat Kohanim , he should say, “ריבונו של עולם, אני שלך וחלומותי שלך – Master of the Universe, I am Yours and my drea…

You Decide Your Destiny

We continue with the Bet Halevi who now introduces one of the most important principles of Bitachon, which is that the amount of effort that you put in matches the amount of Bitachon you have. There's no set amount of effort that you have to put in. If you believe, really believe, that this is enou…

Reduce Financial Stress

A large part of the stress caused by finances is due to worry about the future, with thoughts such as, "We got by until now, but how are we going to be able to afford that?" The fear of the future can demoralize a person. Our Chazal taught us that basic emunah means if we have enough for today, we'…

When it Comes to Money…

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.
