Bitachon 54 - Bitachon and Yiras Hashem

we continue on in all of your ways we are to know hashem we're supposed to be talking in all aspects let's see what this means now we say we ended off last week speaking about the desire of our soul because we're speaking about something which is emotional shiva speaks about this it's a feeling it's an emotional feeling by habituating oneself to so a person is able to receive inside of his nephesh inside of his heart sort of his soul his his animal soul this desire this pitakin there are some people who they turn to hashem when it comes to something that's very big come on you have actually freshmen is going off on business he's going on a business trip let's see especially he's going on a he's going through the desert masa cotton so in those cases so the person will be talking they will focus themselves and have be talking and faith hashem will help them why because they feel the need they feel the need of a mice cotton when it comes to a small action a small deal so to speak loyal hashem they will not mention hashem they will not talk to hashem if they should proclaim their name it seems like the thing that they're doing the action that they're taking is something that you know i've got this that's what they feel um it's very clear to them that they will be able to succeed they will be able to do it themselves have said marooba either because there's not a great loss involved involved might say oh if they don't succeed will y'all be at them and they don't and it doesn't doesn't work out for them so either either they think it's easy to accomplish or they think it's not such a big deal if they don't accomplish it they don't succeed in it that's why tells us king solomon says no hashem in all of your ways whether it's something very great whether it's a small thing once we know that all actions are dependent upon hashem whether it's a great thing or a small thing anytime a person succeeds it's because of hashem that he succeeds he needs to mention hashem a person needs to remember hashem he needs to be engaged in a conversation with hashem in all of his actions he meets hamas because if he indeed succeeds hashem hashem the person did not remember hashem he didn't mention hashem he didn't turn to shem constantly and he kissed so he hasn't fulfilled his obligation a person is obligated in this like we've said many times isn't just you know like oh hashem has to give me something and if it works great if not then i'm not interested it doesn't go that way person has to be talking hashem whether or not it works whether or not they're line is he didn't do his obligation person also needs to think about the fact that what is the reward for somebody who has been who has faith in hashem who puts his hope in hashem the reward is greater than whatever action he's even taking right a person is trying to make money right besides the fact that if he succeeds he's going to make money there's another thing right so we find that it's an obligation to have hashem in mind in all of a person's actions we're going to get to the point in a moment just hold on in all of a person's actions whether we're talking about something which is you know a physical uh obligation or physical need whether we're talking about a spiritual need when a person's a person's learning a person's trying to succeed in rookiness and spirituality so we also need to ask hashem for success like our sages tell us a thought helps meaning focusing on thoughts on god that also helps even for the retire when it comes to matters of the torah when it comes to learning studying the torah is and here's the point hashem will straighten your ways zula sees her be talking besides for the reward of the betahrane the fact that a person has been taken on hashem he's fulfilled his obligation there's going to be a reward for that in heaven right besides that you are going to succeed in that matter and you're going to succeed partly part of the success is that you realize that it's not you that's doing it whether you whether you mention hashem or not it's hashem doing it it's not you it's not me it's not me for succeeding anyway so it's a question of do i recognize where the success is coming from being made now this explanation comes out whether we're speaking about the idea of what our sages say i'm about or we'll see what the ore is but what is a small parsha a small concept that so many different details of the torah are dependent upon have you hang on it's a small idea no hashem in all of your actions that means all your actions there's so many opportunities to bring hashem into my actions curry an incredible thing a person who's doing a sin he wants to succeed of course we're not supposed to do sins but a ghana wants to steal a thief he wants to have success in his stealing he needs to also ask hashem for success he also needs to ask hashem for help so he name is what do we see from here um the gemara is very clear that the pasta it's not just talking about knowing god like having an awareness of god but it's talking about having trust in god may be talking all of the torah all of a person's actions depend on me talking this is the idea which we see very clear above and below both in what we discussed previously what we're discussing now a person has to be talking in all of his actions not just in the greater things and the more blatant places where a person needs help but even in the small things you see they are partial now the order of this this this right speaking of it which we spoke about two times ago trust in hashem with all of your heart right and then now we're speaking about khodor even in the small things there's two aspects here one is kindness and one is truth if you read the sukkim you'll see talking about kindness and truth and then it's talking about because that's the order of things a person needs to be involved in kindness and that person has to inject into it and constantly hoping to hashem in all of one's ways that it's important to be involved in kindness and in truth honesty and then even though he just said of course again of canada but ideally the proper bitcoin is where we have faith in hashem with faith in hashem following the fact that we are fulfilling hashem's ways we are making ourselves to the extent that we we emulate hashem hashem is the ultimate balches the ultimate one who does kindness of the ultimate valemis truth justice these are god's attributes so to the degree that we align ourselves with hashem's attributes then we can have bitaken we can have faith so this is a very important idea now he's going to go on give us a few small ideas we'll have an extended idea which probably we'll talk about next time but hashem with the passage says the following don't be too wise in your own eyes fear hashem and turn away from evil says we also need to understand what is the connection this language of is fear hashem how does bitakan have to do with fear of hashem we said that a person has to emulate hashem a person has to have an ms you have to have kindness you have to do truth you have to be care about truth in order to reach the level of but the opposite is also true and in order to have the proper years hashem to have the proper fear of heaven respect for god so it's only possible when a person has been developed they'll be taken right think about it if i want to have proper fear of god it's only possible if i'm not afraid of other people right i'm not afraid of what other people will think of me i'm not afraid of what other people will do to me because i fulfill the will of god i can only properly fear god if i have be talking and i have complete faith in god that everything that happens to me is from him i'm not afraid of any human being once a person feels inside of himself feels inside of his heart that everything is from heaven they ain't like biatsma and he has no portion in himself he has not he's not involved in the in whatever happens even like we said it's all hashem even when i do something i accomplish something it's not me it's only hashem kavitami and a person is constantly desiring hashem's health constantly asking for hashem's help and he turns at all times to god so that's how person can come to a very high level of years hashem of fear of god or fear of heaven why because i in involved my mind deeper and deeper in my belief in hashem that he's the one who's doing everything it's nobody else it's nothing else so then we have two tubes later says honor hashem from your home from your wealth and from the first of your tuvua from the first of your produce and then your storehouses will be filled with satisfaction right is an important idea also that has to do with that has to do with siddhaka giving to others which is a mitzvah of the torah commandment although so came later it's coming back to the concept of saying like this hashem honor hashem from your wealth person shouldn't have a negative look when it comes to giving money to tsudaka when it comes to giving charity when it comes to giving to others sharing of his wealth with others shouldn't be worried pennies how can i give away my money i don't have enough for myself right rather what a person should do they should trust in hashem that as a result of the fact that the person is is willing to give it's it's a very interesting thing when i give to dhaka so it requires a certain leap of faith hey i'm tight on money right now prices are going up in the grocery stores it's it's very hard how am i gonna how can i get sadaka i don't i don't even have money for myself let me give to talk to myself i'm poor right it's easy to think that way but says there are no a person should trust in hashem that when you trust in hashem you reiterate to yourself reinforce within yourself the fact that it's hashem who gives me my parnosa it's hashem who gives me my prana gives me what i need so then a person merits the blessings according to how much i give that's how much i get because because it really has to do with how much i'm putting my faith in hashem that's how much i end up with i connect to the source of all blessing which is hashem says this is the way i'll be the person should trust with his heart his heart should be absolutely positive i'm so sure of it and when i give away my money for a mitzvah i'm not losing anything by giving away my money i'm going to get more because of it the blessings come even greater um the way to keep my money is to give up my money the way to greater abundance is to do something that seems like taking away my abundance so it's an amazing idea it's a spiritual principle it seems like a dichotomy seems like it seems counterintuitive but rabbinic tells us that it's true and this is the the way that it functions is through talking in order for me to give sadaka i have to have vitacon i have to strengthen myself with my belief to the degree that i strengthen my belief i indeed merit to have greater blessings that's the concept here today thanks so much for listening we'll see you again next time
