5786- Sharing Your Gifts and Talents with Others

Shalom and welcome back to our shar paras. We find the Tory in our para that the Torah puts together two paras which seemingly are unrelated and yet they're placed one right next to the other in our para and that is the para told that and all the future generations are going to go ahead and give and the para of where a person goes ahead and separate him separates himself and becomes a naze gets himself to a higher level and level of a person becomes a naz for a short amount of time a long amount of time for a lifetime But those two paras is put right next to the par of ask the hey what's the connection what's the connection between which anybody's capable of becoming a nazer was something which is inborn what's the connection what's the relation between these two paras and the para says to let it be known that even those people that are capable of going ahead and becoming elevated from the people in their generation like a Nazer which obviously doesn't only mean but anybody who's able to go ahead and become in an elevated status that a Nazar is called anybody who's capable of going ahead and finding himself in the position of being in a place which is above others in a place which a person finds himself in a position of leadership in a position of power says this is the only reason why they were given those capabilities the only reason why they were able to be elevated is not for themselves but it's only in order to be able to help those that are connected to them. It's only in order to be able to go ahead and to give to the goes ahead and puts a para of which a person's a person's elevated right next to the par to let us know that the same way the are elevated but the point of their elevation the point of them being on an elevated status is not just so they can go ahead and stay apart from the rest of or not that they can go ahead and hold it above the heads of other people but rather the reason why the are the reason why the which elevated is the that the reason why the the reason why the reason why they're taken out of the and they're elevated is only is only to go ahead and to teach others is only to go ahead and to be to others only to go ahead and to give to others and therefore the same way we find that were on an elevated status is not for themselves but rather to go ahead and to be mash to others to give to others says this is the same thing takes place with the Nazer theem But don't think that that makes you better than other people. Don't think that puts you in a different category and don't think that makes you more separate from other people. On the contrary, you were you were given the capability to be able to elevate yourself in any way. Whether it's or whether it's gashmas, they were able to go ahead and be in some sort of position of leadership. Person finds himself as a as a who's giving out money. It doesn't make a difference what the position is, but says this the position always needs to be how can I go ahead and how can I help more? How can I be more? How can I go ahead and give to more the same way the iser and elevated status? So the only ones that are capable of entering into the mikd, the only ones are capable of entering that far into the mikd are the it's not for them. It's not that they can go ahead and have inside access for themselves. Rather, it's for them to be able to get inside access for all of to give over the to all of these two paras come one right next to another to let every one of us know that anytime you find yourself and any in any milo whether it's as a parent whether it's whether it's in some sort of position of leadership whether you have more knowledge than other people more money than other people you have you have some more access to some other people doesn't make a difference what it is any that gave you that goes ahead and elevates to a little bit above other people is only in order to be able to go ahead and to give to other people to be to other people to be to other people. Why get only because about looked at himself as nothing because he recognized that any that he has is only to be able to help other people. That's why to be able to have the and to be able to have this mitzvah of says this if you look back at the brings out in parmini when the Torah goes out of the Torah discusses the Indian of the eth day of went ahead and was inaugurating the Mishkan the says that after went ahead and brought the on the eth day says raised up his hands and he raised up his hands to the people and he went ahead head and he gave them and the continues and then he comes down from doing the different various that he that he brought. He comes down and he goes ahead and comes back to the nation says this. The reason why was to go ahead and have this of being able to go ahead and have this mitzvah is because when Aron went ahead and he that was the moment that he became the moment that he's entering into the Mishkan when the Mishk is being inaugurated it's the eighth day what does turn around and do says it's not for me it's not for me to be more elevated it's not that I can go into the and nobody else did and therefore I'm more special rather picks up his hands is he picks up his hands and what does he do to the nation and it goes ahead and the people says all the mile that he got he said it's all for you I recognize that what I got as being able to be the is not for myself rather it's to be able to be more of an he went ahead and he gave over his hands he gave over his to the nation the haven that he only because of them is what what allowed him to be able to have the he says this is perhaps that's the end of over there. What does it say? It says that raised up his hands and gave them and the end of the is as we said he comes down. comes and it comes down says this committee comes down also mean like the says to go to be on top of things to be in charge of things is says perhaps this is the end of the it was over it had it was greater than the doing of the that had brought in the eth day The day of the inauguration of the Mishkan. What was even greater than all the did is picked up his hands and went ahead and gave that was greater that had a read that was above so specifically. Why more than all the that brought what really made him great? What really made him capable of being as that he turned around with all the that he had said how can I go ahead and how can I share this with with somebody else? How can I give this over to somebody else? How can I go ahead and make somebody else's life better because of the gifts that gave me? And that's why he became that's why he was because he was because saw in him the desire to give to others and not to take the godless for himself. That's why the went ahead and gave the the ability to be the but as other places means from his brothers that he recognized that he's a that the only reason why he became great is because of his brothers from his brothers because of the fact that he was there in order to be able to go ahead and to give them and to be able to be mashia on them. And that action of going ahead and giving them was much greater than the act of going ahead. of the carbonas that he brought of the was the ability to give to other people and this is obviously telling us to let us know it's not a story about it's a story about me and you a story about every that every yet has something unique every was given a gift whether it's finances whether it's whether it's knowledge whether it's the ability to see where somebody else needs something and to be able to be the sensitive one in the room whether it's the ability to be able to go ahead and be in some sort of position of leadership every person has an aspect of going ahead and having something that they can share with others says this is your gifts your talents the gave you the positions that gave you are never for yourself it's only to be able to go ahead and to be to other people to give to other people to give to other this is our whenever is able to do this because as we said every has an aspect of this every yet has an aspect of going ahead and being above others in some way some talent that he has some gift that he has some kayak that he has some position of leadership that they have if we're able to all go ahead and utilize it to be able to share with others others to give to others to go out and to others then ultimately to the base of to be able to have back to be able to see that the hierarchy the fact that is greater and he's able to enter is not for himself but he does it on behalf of all of as as tell us when goes into the kadesh he's domining for the farmers he'sing for every in he'sing that woman shouldn't misarry is dinging for everybody because recognizes it's not about him it's about how can he use the gifts Hashem gave him to share them with others to all of us recognize our gifts and our talents and our positions that we have and to be able to utilize them as a platform to share to give and to go ahead and to make's life a little bit better. Have a great choice.
