hey so last week i received some
feedback that i didn't make it so clear
in the video
what exactly was the connection between
not allowing perfect
to be the enemy of good and our
forefather of rum
being told to go and leaving his
homeland his birthplace his father's
home so
in a word the idea is that avrom didn't
know all the details of what this
journey
would be god didn't even tell him what
the destination
was and yet all that mattered to abraham
was hey
god told me to go so i'm gonna go he
didn't need the big picture
that's what i was saying about not
allowing perfect to
stand in the way of good is that
sometimes and i know
in my own life i feel like i need to do
all the different things
i need to make sure that it's all
properly
executed and everybody would agree
that ninety percent is better than zero
[Music]
percent
[Music]
god appears to avraham our forefather
after his circumcision at the age of 99.
and abraham then sees three pastors by
three men who are really angels but he
didn't know that just yet
and he literally puts god on hold and he
runs and deals with these three men to
host them
really i mean i don't know about you but
when i'm
talking to god or studying tara you know
doing something spiritual with god
i don't really feel you know
the presence and revelation of god
um in a tangible sense
it's more you know a a mental
i really should have scripted this so i
could relate this better
i can think about it and i could be
aware of it
but i don't see it here our
holy and righteous forefather abraham is
literally having
this revelation of god
before him and yet he puts god on hold
to go and host some three
men that were passing by what's up with
this
well what is a revelation of god
what's god like anyways i mean is he
chill is he cool is he super scary
intense what exactly is the revelation
of god like
well of course i'm asking this question
because i'm going to answer this
question because of course i know
exactly what a revelation of god is like
no i don't but we're going to speak
about god
in our terms because i mean god himself
does so
god is the essence of good
and a revelation of god means seeing
true giving true selflessness
true love so
a deeper understanding
[Music]
of god's essential nature
which inevitably is a deeper
understanding of
why god creates
the world what god wants
and abraham now on a much deeper level
saw how god is all about giving
totally selfless
[Music]
and he sees that the whole purpose of
life is to give is to emulate god is to
partner with god
in doing acts of goodness in order to
reveal
in every aspect of creation
the godliness the godliness that lies at
its core
and is its very life force
so avraham could have been in middle of
a
tremendous spiritual
mind blow let's we'll just make that a
word for it
but the benefit of that is in order to
apply it
to do exactly what god wants this
revelation
only enhanced and highlighted
our forefather abraham's trait of loving
kindness
i can be on a spiritual trip i can
be studying so much today i can be
praying
from today to tomorrow
[Music]
but the purpose is for me to channel
that in my life
in my relationship with others in my
relationship with everything
how i do everything
[Music]
get in increase in acts of goodness and
kindness and tyra study and mitzvah
observance
and in our joy in our life very soon
[Music]
and we've been saying very soon for too
long maybe immediately
the default
[Music]
you
