you're listening to the 131st edition of
the me talking podcast
and we are back
in Arizona we are back
in the safer with the soaking
and I'd like to share with you the next
section the next project which is in
chapter 28 verse 7. up till
King David says
God is my strength he is my shield
my heart trusted in him
I was helped
by a Leslie B
my heart rejoiced
um
and from my song
I will thank him it's a beautiful
password
so many different aspects in this
position
my power he's my protector I trusted him
with my art he helped me
my heart rejoiced been sing to him
says
whatever it says whenever King David
says Hashem is my strength woozy my
strength
it means the Thai Cafe
we find
in German 16 verse 19.
it means Hashem is the one who gives me
my power
is
an interesting thing King David is
saying perhaps we can understand it's
based on what we've been discussing our
last few weeks
give strength to everyone give strength
to everything Hashem
is the sustaining force of all of
creation but
Hashem gives more strength to me
King David says Hashem gives me strength
so I assume it's going to
um
Hashem is my power Hashem is my
strengths
when I why is
what what
right so to speak does King David have
to say that Hashem gives me more
strength than others
I think it's very simple I think the
understanding is very perhaps we could
say obvious based on what we've been
studying and discussing
himself he knew he was righteous he knew
through all his tests in life through
all his challenges he turned Hashem he
knew that he did what was right he did
he fulfilled the terror he was
involuntary as he speaks about at length
100 and until 119.
he loved the Torah he was involved in
time he was studying the Toyota he was a
judge for the for the Jewish people in
matters of halacha and matters of Jewish
law
he knew that he had a right so to speak
to to claim that Hashem gives him
strengths
in an individual way more
than others
to the degree that we
keep the title keep the midst of the
mitzes are our strength we spoke about
how the rule of represents it's like a
it's like a sword we have won the battle
with the Sara we won on Yom Kippur
Hashem gave the Jewish people a good
judgment
a positive judgment he forgiveness of
our sins
are the satang did not win we won but
the besides for the fact that we won the
the Mitzvahs are our sword they are our
strengths uh Jacob says
when he says that I was able to conquer
the city of Chicago he gives it to
Joseph
he conquered it with his with his sword
and with his bow and arrow one of these
things are sages means with his prayers
with his Fearless with his with his
Tyrone with this study of the law
when we are fulfilling the Commandments
we are we are striving to do God's will
we are guaranteed
we are guaranteed that we will have what
we need
some promises
makes mention of this and and takes
claim
he claims the strength the unique power
that Hashem gives
the person who is trying to do God's
will
he gets special power
says
this is a very important point
I put my trust in Hashem alone
I know who pays my my masquerade and
okay is my wages I know it's my boss but
I don't trust my boss I know that my
boss can fire me in a second
I know where the money comes so I know
it comes from this job that job whatever
it is
I know that intellectually but where do
I place like my face
on whom do I rely
are Hashem alone
I only trust in Hashem there will be
many others who will help me as well
Hashem will send many Messengers to help
me
but it's Hashem himself
who is helping me through the Messengers
he brings you a story from the altar of
the vardik let's see it inside kanira
evidence
it seems that even Ezra is learning from
the language of public says I was helped
nifa is
a language of nifa which means that it
happened to me
I was helped it happened to me that I
was helped
because
saying of his his trust his faith his
confidence in Hashem
he was helped by others as him sent
others to help him
so we learned from this
that we need to recognize Kia is
that when let's say you're walking along
and yeah you have a constitutional you
have a flat tire of the highway and
someone stops to help you
that's Hashem
that's God sending that person
is
saying Hashem is my strength he is my
protector
didn't have uh soldiers in his army he
didn't have uh guards to protect him of
course he did
but he acknowledged that those are just
the superficial aspects of hashem's help
it's really Hashem
gave him the soldiers it's really Hashem
who gave him the guards
he brings the story from the altar of
levaric a cozy pair this is the story
and it's going to say at the end that
that was the author of The varic there
was a particular Jew
sitting
in the train station
the train came he didn't get up to go
onto the train
ing
one of the other Jews who was standing
there waiting for the train came over to
him
he said why aren't you going on to the
Train the other alternative answered
if he said I need a ticket to go on the
train I don't have any money
if you don't have any money what are you
doing here like why are you sitting here
the altar replied yeah
I'm sitting here and it's interesting
because this is a classic move that the
students of the verdict used to used to
actually practice their their be talking
like doing this
he said look uh
someone's gonna send me a ticket
foreign
first time second time third time it's
about to leave
if you're already here the sound of the
of the steam engine it was making heavy
loud sounds
and I would add maybe the smoke was
coming out of the smokestack well the
feta over there The udemy Roots
a Jew passes by running by and he says
to the to the altar of the varic who's
sitting there and having be talking
what are you sitting here for I learned
a cabinet
so this guy is running in says what are
you doing why are you sitting here get
on the train you know take it ears to
take him
that's what he did
and they started to travel
foreign
the person who had made fun of the
alternative Arc and said what are you
doing why are you sitting around what
are you having me talking for
he came over to me and he says to him
this morning doesn't mean that I said
what a fool you are
this is what the Real Fool said to the
altar of the verdict yeah
how can you depend on your be talking
if this Jew would have been one second
later you wouldn't have been able to get
on the train
foreign
was about he finished
the story and he says
he said
loving comes to Yakov as yaakov and his
wives are returning to the light of
Israel and Lovin has a dream and now
Hashem Don't touch yaakov don't even
don't even think about it
elawin says
I can hurt you if I want the next day
he says to yaakov
your God appeared to me last night but
I can hurt you if I want
that's ridiculous of course you can't
excuse me
the fool looks at the story and it says
if the guy every talking was foolish
because they might not have showed up he
could have
if we would have come a second later you
would have missed the train
but the fool doesn't notice
the guy came one time and the alternator
already got on the train Hashem sent him
his needs just in time
and it's interesting this is a theme we
spoke about previously that often it
seems like the help comes in the last
second and the way that I understand it
is that it doesn't have to be that way
the money can come long before
it has to do with how much we talking we
have
it's easiest in a certain sense to have
me talking
when we feel hard-pressed when we feel
like oh my gosh
I'll show you have to help me
to get to that level of be talking of
confidence that Hashem is going to help
me
or that level of desperation I would say
hashem's help doesn't always happen
until the last second but no matter what
if we could have looked at the
alternative Arctic space
was he was he nervous I don't think that
he was nervous
was he pressured
I don't think he felt pressure was he
pressured he was pressured he had to get
on the train
but he didn't feel pressure he knew the
money was gonna he knew the in this case
the ticket was going to come
because very interesting
but the point of this whole story that
he brought it here in the notes was to
teach us that it might look like it's a
human being bringing it bringing the
ticket bringing the money giving us our
our paycheck but it's not
and
we we naturally look at the person who's
giving us the money as the person like
the person
but it's really Hashem then we need to
remind ourselves of that
is King David says I trusted only in
Hashem
okay that's the immunizer now let's hear
that I'll shift it is
since the fact is Hashem is my strength
of a protector from the time that I
trusted in him if I will tell Tyler my
heart
felt confident in him
I was helped for the heavens immediately
shall not only turn that crop she
answered me before I even called out to
him
the the Australia says something very
interesting
sometimes if you spoke about this as
well in the past
it's all important to review and to
reinforce within ourselves sometimes I
ask Hashem for something
sometimes I'll be talking it's gonna
happen
that doesn't happen right away right
like the alternative he's sitting there
waiting for the tickets didn't happen
right away then that was the last second
still hasn't come Hashem has already
decided it's gonna happen and I believe
that Hashem has already decided it's
going to happen
foreign
or I see later that he helps me but how
did I know to become in the meantime how
did I know to feel a sense of calm
before that
foreign
the reason is because I started singing
I started rejoicing in my art
from the moment that I trusted they hear
this amazing
level of guitar and this is what we
talking is supposed to look like after
mention that that uh I was in New York
visiting the Far Rockaway area and it
was
for about two and a half hours
during a series
and I was asking a question related to
be talking
up to an Utica in my life
that will require a greater
a greater amount of income
what's the correct approach to it and
can I continue with the same method of
me talking as I've worked with before do
I have to change anything
from the question that he asked me
was based on a story
it's still a story that had happened in
the women's be talking group
one of the members of the women's be
talking group wrote the story
and sent it to Tamara shashiva exercise
was also printed I believe in hamodea
and the story is that she decided that
she was going to be talking she wasn't
getting married
she decided she was going to have me
talking
absolute confidence and assuming she was
not going to do any ish studless she
wouldn't do any efforts in order to
bring about
that her husband that she would meet the
guy she's supposed to marry
she just had absolute completely taught
him
said to me that she felt
complete confidence she felt completely
relaxed
this is really important because this is
what we talking looks like
there's a relaxation and it's not
it looks to somebody who's never had you
talking it looks
like you're not being responsible
this is also the discussion and I asked
for Russia how do you know if you're
being irresponsible or you're just
trusting in Hashem
and we the the conclusion that we had
was that it's something that no one can
answer that question for you it's
something that you know inside of
yourself
but there was a sense of calm
Hashem sent her husband her groom Hashem
today they're married this is a story
for the last few months
absolutely complete been talking
absolute confidence
sense of relaxation a sense everything
is going to be not just going to be
whatever it is not just whatever it is
everything is going to be good
the one who's meant to come is Gonna
Come
amazing but some relationship asked me
how do you feel like what's your feeling
inside when you have to be talking do
you feel like a load was taken off of
your shoulder
to feel like a load was taken off of
your shoulder
that's what the al-shita saying
when I trusted in Hashem a load was
taken off of me I hadn't yet seen the
salvation
but I felt like
it's it's not in my hands
it's in the best hands possible it's an
hashem's hands
it's because I already sensed that
Hashem is answering me Hashem is helping
me
foreign
this is similar to what we spoke about
previously
three weeks ago we spoke about the fact
that yeah
Hashem strengthens um I've been actually
saying this
I asked during Allah I say Hashem
and strengthen my
Hashem sends down from the source from
the root of my soul
into me immediately
a joy in my heart from him
Hashem gives me this call list
so I'm not only going to thank Hashem
for fulfilling my request
and not just for the fact that he's
listening to my supplications afterwards
also he transformed the sadness that I
had inside of me when I when I asked for
the thing I needed
when I was when I was supplicating
before him he transformed that into a
song but make sure Allah
my heart was rejoicing even before I got
the words out of my mouth I already felt
hashems taking care of me
so you see Charlotte I sang Dash him
immediately
I will also
from the song itself I will praise him
the song itself the fact that I'm
singing is something that I Want To
Praise Hashem about beautiful
thank you God that you answered
my supplications
thanking Hashem that Hashem answered his
prayers name
was my strength in front of the Jewish
people
interesting King David is saying I
didn't even need to go out to battle
right now
this is the the you're talking to the
author in the varic I didn't even need
to do any status I didn't even to do
anything I didn't need to go out to
battle and I won anyway
because it might be talking because of
my confidence because of my trust in
Hashem you got me at least
I didn't do anything usually a person
feels like look I'm involved in it I I
was participating in the success I
should have gave me the strength to win
but here's another milk like I didn't
even go out to battle but I won anyway
the enemy just fell in front of me
because lied them flat land flat on
their faces
so I shouldn't have a I shouldn't have a
feeling like I want
but I won't
I feel like I won maybe it's because I
had to be talking or maybe
allowed me to feel like it was my
success
as well
last last idea here from the base of
Levy
which we studied together but it's in
this context as well it's worth
repeating again
this is so important when I have been
talking
it doesn't just mean that I don't take
action
right the Mesa Levy holds like the
alternative Arctic they'll be talking
means without ishtadas but what am I
doing how am I feeling when I don't take
action without taking the action I can't
be that in my heart that's the only
wanting wanting wanting wanting wanting
that's not called that you trust in your
heart the acre I'll be talking tally
believe me
be talking means how you feel
when you have been talking it means I
feel confident
I feel
calm
okay Levi returning you skating with
slaving
presents hard and his desires need to be
relaxed
quiet
shouldn't want anything
you feel like I have everything already
I already have everything
thinking I should have everything I need
that's what beautiful looks like that's
the feeling of it's awesome
it should be so confident in his that is
going to get everything that he needs
for his benefits
until it's it nullifies its own desire
because the desire doesn't even come up
inside of him that's a very powerful
high level but something to to
yearn for
eign
desire is whatever Hashem desires for
them thank you so much for listening see
you again next time
