to re was incredible BAL of the last generation who the of in he spent his early years as the head of a yiva in K the cost was overwhelming in the yiva and as is often the case the yiva found itself in Dire Straits they needed to Yeshua rebellia traveled to different countries in order to raise the necessary funds it was a tedious job and reia was eager to teach TM he didn't want to be a fundraiser that's not what he had dedicated his life to and as he continued to go from town to town he was met with much more frustration and he was being very unsuccessful and after all of his fruitless efforts he went to the and he told what he felt and he expressed his frustration gave him some open encouragement and he told him the following it wasn't exactly what he thought he'd hear said to him the says in this Capital that we're learning now he provided food for those who fear Him He eternally remembers his Covenant and the M says that Hashem does not only bring terf terf is food but t t is madness we may Wonder said the why AEM brings such terrible Madness to the world we feel unsettled we lack we struggle with our we feel very very anxious and worried you should know that every yiva shares your plight it almost seems to be a condition in having a yiva that the yiva will struggle financially you know mosta are forced to leave their homes much like you did they have to travel abroad and they have to raise money and all other creatures animals ants little uh rabbits they don't have to travel overseas to raise money whatever they need to eat is right there in front of them said there are people who are nearby who could certainly shoulder the burden and cover your expenses and yet for whatever reason it is they don't he says but if they did then the sikim who travel around the world to raise money would not be able to inspire the rest of the world think about it if sikim would be able to get everything they need within their like the in your backyard who would spread the light of toyra the inspiration the r that the rest of us need think about it for a momental and the other sikim who traveled from used to have to travel from he was very unwell all the G who come travels from B land they have to leave was just lifter wouldn't they be better off for cl staying at home and the answer is says the that made it in a way where they have to struggle to support the Yas in order to slept them away from their yias because otherwise they would never leave the Yas and in order to slept them away from the Yas because there's ye all over the world who need there you all over the world who need to be inspired who be need to be able to find a spark to ignite inside of them so they can learn and theom orchestrated all of this in order that these y that all of us would be able to find the necessary inspiration and that we get from all of those great G and turned to and he said that is why who has sent you that is why has caused you the frustration the T the madness that threatens all of your why because the wants to give you an opportunity to inspire and an opportunity to those y all over the world who desperately yearn for that inspiration so that they can feel more connected to that is why put us on this world not so we could stay in our own I mean there are a few a few who do that but even when people have to do like says to allow people to remember to tell the world there's a with and we cannot leave it without paying attention without connecting to it and without making it our Lifeline to we move on to the next cap describes how those who live with an awareness of AEM they bask in his light and they never experience Despair and they never experience the darkness Z even in darkness a light shines for the upright you know there's Darkness abounds but for those who live withes we experience the light right here and right now right after we received the word of the simp ter tragedy the massacre it was par B and I saw the following amazing idea it's an idea that should carry us that not only applies to this capital of tum but it really should apply to every moment of Our Lives the first time ever punished anything in this world ever gave consequences to anything was to the moon what happened the moon came to after was created and said two kings can't wear one Crown so one of us has to be made smaller Hashem says you're complaining you'll be made smaller and the sun retained its incredible Brilliance and light and the moon became a tiny dark shadow of what it once was when Hashem gave that consquence to the Moon Hashem really gave a special gift to the world because even though the moon was diminished and its light was made much smaller butes who gave the moon compensation for its consequence millions and billions of stars that shine brilliantly throughout the night that even though there is no light of the Sun but the darkness of the night is illuminated through all of these brilliant stars and RD Rapaport says a brilliant idea that Hashem established at that moment a you a lesson a rule of this world that whenever punishment is given it comes with a promise that even though that thing which is punished that being that is punished is made smaller is made darker Hashem will compensate that Darkness with light in unimaginable ways when a punished the moon the stars would radiate with Brilliance till the end of time and the same is true with any punishment that is given any consequence that is given who always repays that consequence even though it's deserv it even though the punishment was deserved the moon spoke and with with make one of us smaller could have said ah you want a punishment you'll be punished and that was it that was the discussion but no is on all of his Bri and all of his creatures and so to it's a promise until the end of time to anybody who's going through any difficulty you suffer you're punished even if that punishment is deserved Hashem loves us too much to allow that Darkness to always be there will be light there will be a Radiance that we can never fathom a goodness that we can never imagine and that is what is telling us even in darkness it shines or and we have to know that somebody told me very powerful idea imagine you're hailing a taxi you're in Manhattan and you're hailing a taxi and you wave down the taxi and the taxi says yeah where too sir say I'd like to go to Manhattan you're in Manhattan I know but I'd like to go to Manhattan fellow what are you talking about you're in Manhattan this is exactly where you need to be we don't realize that in the is the are in the darkness is the light imagine if there was a world that just had Brilliance of light there would be no light the light would be too blinding it's the darkness only because there's Darkness do we see the light and therefore in every situation a person has to realize there's always goodness that will come there's always light that will come where do you find that light look deeper into the darkness and you will see the light that shines until next time
