chapter speaks of the revelation of hashem's glory in this world and as we continue to endure the long and bitter Exile the very very difficult Gus that we find ourselves in we definitely can relate to the fact that Hashem has conducted himself in a manner of Hester upon his face is hidden Hashem conceals the open Miracles he conceals very often his kindness and his goodness and he camouflag is it in sometimes very very painful suffering and destruction but there will be a time one day soon when hasem will reveal his kindness he will display his goodness openly Hashem and all of his glory is going to be seen there's aost gim that says let them greatfully praise your great and awesome name it is Holy again sometimes there's good sometimes there's bad there's an expression from everything that does is for the good in fact the word t which means nature is a combination say the of two words of it nature is really Hashem camouflaging an expression of always doing good does it look good sometimes it doesn't but we know everything that Hashem does that's Aramaic by the way that everything hasem does is for the good even when it doesn't appear to be so R David bler was a person who understood that you don't necessarily have to see hashem's goodness to appreciate it he was a student of the naric way of thought naric was very big into his bedus meditation to contemplate Hashem in a very very intense and a very very meaningful way and sometimes he would travel away from from his home in order to achieve this meditative state in order to be able to spend time learning muser but really learning muser and one time prior to leaving his home he went over to one of his tal and he said listen pesak is just over the horizon pesak is going to be here very soon and I'd like you to take upon yourself the to be the Emissary of the yiva to make sure that we have enough pesak food and pesak supplies that everybody can be taken care of but the yiva was broke imagine being told take care of it all and you're a young man and the Riva goes away and now you're entrusted with this impossible task Rd told him don't worry take out a loan and when I come back I will pay back everything by the way rib had no idea how he was going to pay back the money but that's what he told him the talid went and he carried out his re's wishes he borrowed the money he purchased the wine he got hold of the matus and the entire Yesa had what to eat rdid came back ER of PES he comes back a of pesak and the young man walks over to his rebi and he says rebi I took care of everything he says do you have the money to pay it back cuz I borrowed the money and he said no I don't have any money unfortunately I'm so sorry the boy was distraught he was the one that took out the money a few days later rdid was blessed with a child a baby boy now not only did Rd have no money he had a newborn baby and and rd's wife now was very nervous what's going to be she was filled with anxiety how are you going to feed the B for the bris how are you going to be able to continue to feed the for PES andd said don't worry the r sh will provide the debt collectors came pounding on the door and they were banging and they said give us our money and he said I'm so sorry I don't have it but with each additional knock rd's wife became more and more anxiety ridden more and more worrisome and soon a man came banging on the door but as he was screaming to get his money back they witnessed that all the bottles in the house were toppled over now whatever wine had been prepared for Yanti whatever wine was for the rest of Yanti drenching the rest of the food of the Matas there was nothing left now they had no there was a bris coming up they had no more food for pesak it was a disaster and the man's banging to get his money imagine the scene and the new mother is worried about her baby boy and they're worried about the bris and and through all the confusion there's a mailman who comes in and hand a letter to R and he opens it and it says we hereby inform you in the name of the landlord that you must pay all the outstanding rent from the last year if not you'll be evicted from the [Music] premises a sense of Despair began to settle in the talum in the home were wondering how much can any human being take and David began to sing I don't know if who was this nigan but I thank you that you have answered me and become my salvation and people didn't understand what's from David saying where's the answer it's just s on top of Sor worry on top of worry anxiety on top of anxiety the next day rib David received another message another messenger he had won the lottery in a moment in a split second all of his worries were gone R David had never flinched sometimes we see the Sor sometimes we're to rise above and to realize there is no T it's just Hashem giving us a little bit of a so that we can appreciate the goodness we have and realize that everything will work out in the end we now move on to the next capital capital K and this one is very very familiar M song of thanks called and this very very special hundred peric is a song of expression of gratitude that we should sing all the time well savior de hillan every once in a while we have to remember is not only a safer where we sing out to hasem with crying in despair but rather We Sing Out TM as an expression of thanks and gratitude and sometimes we have to stop because we're dwarfed with challenges and if we would open our eyes and look at the picture a little bit differently we would see there's so much to be grateful for so much goodness in our lives you know it's difficult to encapsulate all of tah hilum into just a few words but it's the hund there's something special about a 100 and we're 2third of the way through till because there's 150 chapters of tan so let's take a stab of it is good his kindness endures forever and from generation to generation is his faithfulness Hashem always takes care of us sometimes we don't see it and this is a recurring theme listen to this my somebody had recently purchased a new nursing home and the nursing home was a really nice nursing home and it was in Middle of the community and it was something that he could charge top dollar for for every room and sometimes when you move into such a facility and you take over a facility you have to be very very careful to be cost efficient you have to make sure that you're taking care of the business and sometimes that means making hard choices now he wasn't planning on throwing anybody in the street but if I can move somebody from one home to another I'll move them from a high-end facility to a middle of the road facility so this way I'll be able to not have to take a a cheaper amount of money less amount of money I'll be able to take top dollar and I'll move that person out to a place where and there was one woman who wasn't really paying much and he felt bad for her but he also wanted to make sure that he was getting good money so he told the administrator I need you to move around some rooms we'll have to move people around then we'll get things in order and sure enough that's what the fellow did and he's about to make all the calls and this fellow was telling his father not the administrator but the owner was telling his father about what he had to do and he said and you know know Mrs so and so I have to move you're moving Mrs so and so out of the facility he said yeah she's com out not paying anything and he goes absolutely not you cannot do that says why not he says this woman we'll call her Mrs schwarzman Mrs schwarzman was somebody who lived in the town where I grew up this fellow grew up in a town very very small Town Mrs schwarzman was the one who had encouraged his parents to send them to yiva Mrs schwarzman was the woman he owed his life to to move her out of the facility to a lower-end facility absolutely not they quickly ran they found out the administrator had not yet made that move and he said make sure that she's is treated five star now obviously everybody needs to be treated five star but sometimes we have to realize sometimes we have to realize hashem's not taking care of us second class we are his chosen people Hashem loves us he has such appreciation for who we are he's so so careful to give us everything sometimes we don't recognize it but Hashem moves us up to the highest class if we remember that and we know that hm is always then we'll realize it we'll appreciate it and even when things are not going so good we know things are going to work out until next time
