you're listening to the 139th edition of
the podcast and we have one more podcast
where we're going to speak about this
P the wicked person has a lot of
pain but the one who trusts in hasem is
surrounded by kindness surrounded by
kindness you can see the hills behind me
that surround me the hills of
Judah the mountains of
Yehuda K who surrounds us with kindness
when we trust in
him he brings
the it says like
this generally speaking King Solomon
tells us in Proverbs that when a person
wants something hopes for something is
always waiting for something to happen
so it causes the person to have a
sickness of heart a person can get
a person can start to feel bad when he
doesn't get what he
desires slave
says that a righteous person who desires
something it doesn't cause the person to
end up with a broken heart to end up
with to end up heart
sick first there's two reasons for first
of all the right person who trusts in
hem he knows the Salvation is so close
it's about to happen it doesn't feel
like it's far away a person is wanting
something it seems like he's not going
to get
so it's heavy it's difficult it's
challenging but that's not how the sadic
feels the sadic the rightous individual
who has feels like it's it's really it's
really close the Salvation is really
close
say an amazing thing he says that when a
righteous individual who desires
something has trust in Hashem but for
whatever reason Hashem says no God says
I'm not giving this thing that you
desired but the very fact that the
person had a desire
and placed his trust in
hasem that trust itself that
relationship that was
developed the result of it says R is
that the person has many
kindnesses many good things are on the
way as far as the thing that they
desire because they wanted it they might
not get what they wanted because might
say no but some something greater is
going to come because of the connection
that they developed
with says that's the in our the one who
trust in hm is surrounded by kindness
means if I'm trusting in Hashem good
things are coming might not be the exact
good thing that I thought but good
things are on the
way now he brings from m
a person who trusts in his creator his
heart is never
worried this is an important point when
I sat with my rashash RAB duringa I was
in New York and I sat with him and I
asked him a question that had to do with
B and his first question that he asked
me was when you have they feel
calm they feel calm and he shared with
me the story of a young lady who decided
with
her that she's going to just trust in
hasem that her sh her match the man
she's supposed to marry is going to come
without any is she felt absolute
calm that's what it looks like when a
person has real
deep a sense of
calm someone who trusts and his creator
says has no worry in his heart at
all he just trusts in hem that nothing
bad will happen to
him because these are two
opposit a person whose heart is
absolutely trusting in
hem that person who is hoping and
trusting in Hashem that good is
happening good is on its way not afraid
of whatever is going on in the world at
that moment or whatever things can
happen in
time this is what King David means when
he says the one who trusts in hm is
surrounded by
kindness we can deduce
the one who trusts in
hem merits kindness the one who trusts
in Hashem is surrounded by kindness but
if a person does not trust in Hashem so
then the kindness doesn't
come that's the risk that a person
takes and so a person is constantly
worried constantly
afraid and this is what the wise man
said
the fear of a
person gives a it causes a person to
stumble it's a
trap p mishle in Proverbs
29:2 the person who trusts in
hem so he's going to have everything
that he needs he's going to prosper he's
going to he's going to get what he needs
but the person who's afraid the person
who gives into his fear that's how I
would say because all human beings are
afraid P tells us yakob was
afraid but he turned around with his
fear and he turned to prayer he turned
to Hashem and in the same way we need to
turn around and place our trust in hasm
and not give into the Trap of
fear what does it mean the fear of a
man the fear that a person has when
something dangerous or fearsome happens
to
him it causes him to have another trap
another stumbling block because his
heart is not with him right a person's
emotions affect what he does affects how
he continues on in the
world and it's common it's it's likely
that this person will end
up tripping in a light
man meaning even even the person there's
an a stumbling block that's easy to
bypass but the person is fearful and
because of the fear
he'll trip over something which without
that fear he would have he would have
been
fine but a person who trusts in says and
doesn't have too much fear doesn't allow
himself to fall into the
fear that person even despite or because
of the challenge that faces him the the
difficult situation he finds himself
doesn't end up being a trap for him and
that's up being a a an opportunity for
growth it end up being a chance for him
to be to become greater in his fear of
Heaven greater in his trust in
Hashem greater his ability I would say
on a on a superficial level as well to
face off with challenges just generally
positively coming to the challenge
without that fear it's a different it's
a different ball
game this is also an important
point this is the izra he says that when
a
person has
proper
so there's a danger without the danger
is let's say let's say I need to go to a
doctor most people do I've been to the
doctor recently I was not well and I
need to go to a doctor I need to take a
blood test and I need to find out what
is this virus that I have
right but how much do I depend on the
doctor how much do I think that his word
is what saves me how much do I depend
on the medicine that I'm taking I need
to take the medicine I need to go go to
the doctor but I also need to be M I
also need to pray also need to depend on
hem he's going to heal
me
interesting izra says and we're going to
see in the note over here perhaps a
little bit of a different perspective
but the Ian Ezra says that generally
speaking if a person gets struck by
another person get hurt by another
person so that's something that you can
go to a doctor for but a natural illness
that comes upon a person really the
correct
approach is to pray it's to
pray could be today you know it could be
in the times of Eben Ezra the the the
doctors didn't have so much uh
scientific knowledge today you know in
those times they could they could
bandage up a wound physical wound what
do they know really about dealing with
viruses bacteria even today we don't
deal so well with
viruses
but the the proper approach no matter
what is to strengthen my years Hashem to
recognize that why is this happening to
me there's a spiritual reason why this
is happening to me and need to
strengthen my relationship with God
recognize the mistakes that I may have
made that could have brought
about this sickness upon
myself he brings in the note here from
the writings of
rund that this this list is
from he writes as
follows
when the brother of the became
sick the
went went to his brother to visit
himam and
petburg there he found two very famous
doctors one from Amsterdam one from
petur the said to his brother
why do you have these doctors here hasem
is the one who cures
us amdam the doctor from Amsterdam
said what do you think that hasem
created uh doctors and and their and the
and the healings that they know how to
do it's for
nothing
the said do you think that God created
pigs for
nothing it's for people who are impure
it's for people who are
uncircumcised
go said the
girl doctors that's for go that's for
people who are not the people of
Israel the Jewish people when on that
level we have the proper when we're on
that
level and there are people even today
who are on that level I'm not on that
level but it's possible to be on that
level the grow was on that level his
brother heeld was on that
level we don't go to doctors we pray
weav
we here in the note he
says need to know what the styler wrote
this is K's father so the previous
generation of
gum guttle of the 60s and 70s and
80s this is what the styler
says St right a person who has
real and has proven and has seen over
and over again that when I have be
talking it
works when I be talking that I should be
healed I'm Healed when I be that the
money should come it
comes if it's tried and true in your
life you have seen over and over again
that your is on a different
plane then you should not go to a doctor
like
raan says he brings this here in
Brackets that it's not the way to to go
to a doctor it's just a minute so people
do it's a custom but it's it's not
correct
dark the real way that the nature of
things should be is that a person gets
sick because they've done something
wrong they are purified from their ER
from their sin and they get
better because hasem decides hasm wills
it but thean says that people did go and
we we do have the custom to go to
doctors and so hasem leaves it to the
way of
Nature and this is what mean when they
say the it says you shall go to doctor
you you you have to you have to go and
try to heal
yourself there's permission there's
permission to go to a
doctor it doesn't say that you can go to
a doctor it says that the doctor is
allowed to heal
people so that's the
ran says the S back to the
stier
disci says there are very few people who
are on such a high level where
they're that they can just have and they
are
healed Styler says that generally
speaking for Our
Generation people have to have yes
alongside alongside efforts
alongside going to a
doctor and styler writes to whoever he
was writing to that I assume that when
it comes to your
parasa you put in his you put in efforts
you do normal
things which is what most people do so
the right thing to do when it comes to
Healing is also to do what most people
do
unless a person is on a very high
level says the styler in order to be
saved and to and to be cured without any
at all without any efforts at all that
requires a very high level and
tremendous amount of
merits can see additionally in
366 at
length Okay we have two final things
here one from the malim and one from the
gur from I'm sorry
from the
says only the wicked person has a lot of
pain
because there are many reasons why the
Russia has to endure these
pains he'll have a lot of pain when he's
sick and he'll have all kinds of
different youur he'll have all kinds of
different difficulties that he goes
through but the person who trusts in hem
doesn't experience the pain the same
way say the Mal
a person who a when he experiences pain
when he experiences sickness he
recognizes that this is hashem's
kindness to
me this is a
protection sometimes hasem theic
recognizes that if I wouldn't be sick
now there's two different ways we can
understand what the M says I'm going to
give the pup shot if if I wouldn't be
sick now so then my eight are my my
lower self would overcome me and I would
give into s Vera I would having forbid
fall prey to a to a tiate to a desire
which is an inappropriate desire or
perhaps maybe there's a different
understanding I would be in a place of
danger and an animal might an animal
might damage me
last
Point i' like to tell you what
said PK says a person who's Wicked has a
lot of pain but the one who trusts in
hem is surrounded by
kindness person who has a stomach ache
give him
THS so in those times they didn't have
THS that had a good taste it was very
bitter the the Rua the medicine for a
stomach ailment was very bitter but it
was
effective they got smart and they put
the disgusting tasting medicine inside
of a pill
this way you can swallow it without you
can swallow the pill without tasting the
bitterness of the
medicine so this is what it means when
it says that the pain is that which is
experienced by the
Wicked the pain that the wicked
experiences is something that cures him
it's it's something good for him it
takes Away The Sins perhaps that he's
done but it's very bitter for him it's a
hard it's a hard pill to swallow it
tastes very
disgusting they cover the the pill the
pill is covered with with a case for the
one who trusts in Hashem a case of
kindness a
and that's how you can swallow it you
know this is hashem's kindness what a
beautiful mus
from trusting inm helps a person that
you don't taste the
bitterness of the pill that you have to
swallow thank you so much for listening
see you again next
time
