Do you see the kedusha in someone who’s struggling? Whether it’s addiction, trauma, or other mental health challenges, everyone deserves our compassion. Love isn’t just what we say - it’s how we show up, especially when it’s uncomfortable. Who could you reach out to today? Or share this with someone who might need it. This kind of love changes lives - including yours. @zgluck

We say we have to learn Kamoha every
single day so much love your neighbor
like you love yourself that we stopped
hearing it. This week I would like us to
hear it together.
>> [music]
>> And after motion Kadoshim we see three
soaking that belong together in Kadoshim
T U
shall be holy the after Kamoha love your
neighbor as love yourself and
do not stand idly by the blood of your
neighbor. Three soaking one message your
holy the person next to you is holy and
you're forbidden from looking away when
they're bleeding. Rabbi Akiva calls
Kamoha the cloud Godel by Torah the
single greatest principle of the entire
Torah not one of the great principles
the greatest everything else flows from
there which means how we treat the
person who's suffering how we show up
for the person who is drowning is not
just a nice thing to do it is the very
foundation of everything.
The person drowning in addiction who
hasn't been sober in years the survivor
of abuse carrying the shame that didn't
belong to them for decades the person in
the middle of the mental health crisis
feels so broken
that being called holy feels impossible
for them to receive.
Yet we point them to the same person
Kadoshim T U
the Torah is not speaking to the people
who have it together there's no asterisk
there's no fine print that says all
except for you.
This message is for everyone.
And if you're watching this and you're
in pain
you are not your addiction you are not
what happened to you you are not your
worst moment of your darkest year you
are Kadosh you are holy.
And to everyone who knows someone else
who is struggling in their own darkness
and needs help low summer do not stand
idly by you do not have to have the
answers you need to make the call.
Reach out reach out to someone to anyone
to a mood into another organization you
don't have to carry this alone.
You are all holy.
This is turning the wheel because the
road to healing isn't straight but no
one should have to travel it alone
wishing you a wonderful Shabbos.
