chabas is there to provide please do your utmost to help in any way you can today we continue with chapter 141 and 142 K and in this wonderful Journey that we've made to safer to Hill to hilum Treasures the 141st chapter begins with the words mmar David it's a song to David Hashem Hashem I have called you and then we say hasten to me listen to my voice when I call out to you Hashem there's a story in Theus that helps us understand this was actually the giant of his generation says the small one but he wasn't small at all I mean I don't know what his physical stature was but he was was a giant of an individual and when there was a drought affecting the entire region he decided that everybody needs to fast we'll storm the gates of shamayim and they'll be fasting and that will bring a Yeshua the next day ran began rain began to fall and it fell prior to the onset of the fast the people thought that they must have done something positive to Halt the drought but SCH wasn't so convinced and he corrected them and he told them a he said it's similar to a servant sometimes you have a servant and the servant goes over to his master and he asked him if he'd be able to have a reward I've been working hard I've done all the chores that you've given me I've done it diligently I've done it honestly I've been true to you please give me a reward but the master not such a nice guy and the master decided that he doesn't want to reward his slave you my slave you're my servant you have to do things for free I don't have to pay you for that I paid for you I don't have to pay you as well and he decided that you know what okay how about this I'll give you a reward but I don't want to have to deal with you you'll go to the servants other servants and other servants will take care of your request and they will give you what you need so when schm decreed that the people should fast what he really wanted was that they should be able to connect to hasem no drought means Hashem is displeased with his Nation the Mish talks all about the different tan people would have the different fasts when things were not going well and he wanted that the people should realize you're not connecting to Hashem and because of that he's withheld the rain and in order to be able to make it the rainfall you have to be able to connect to Hashem but when Hashem before we ever cried out to him and before we instituted the fast when Hashem lets the rain fall that's not a good sign that means that Hashem saying okay okay okay you need it you need the rain I'm going to give it to you but you know what I don't want to have anything to do with you and that is a devastating devastating thing to hear because more so than the desired result we want the connection with Hashem because if we're connected to him then whenever he gives us or doesn't give us we know that's well so when schw decreed that the people should fast not only did it rain before the fast it didn't rain until after Sunset so the people had fasted again in order to be able to make sure that this time they connect and this time again they didn't get the rain before the fast it didn't rain until after Sunset so the people were pleased they said you know what we fasted and Hashem heard us pray and that's why he uh responded and SCH says no no no there's another Marshall he said there was once a servant who approached his master and asked him for a reward the master told his other servants that they should wait not give it to him for as long as possible push it off as long as possible and then I won't have to deal with him anymore he'll disintegrate he'll be over and the gor says that according to shm the most positive response would be if thein would say he makes the wind blow and the wind would blow he makes the rain fall the rain would fall so when we say in theem when I call to you please answer my request on that same day not after Sunset and not before the day starts but law as I call out to you Hashem answer me not before not after now it's a tall ask because rarely do we ask for things and receive them immediately but if we would we would know instantaneously that Hashem has taking care of us we move on to km km is similar to Capal nun during one of D's escapes from sh M found himself at the far end of the cave and when sha entered the cave he did not see doid at that point he also wrote this capital K and this Capital unfortunately over the last many months has become one of the most commonly recited in all of [Music] cry out to David David cries out he's in the cave with my voice I cry out to hasem and with my voice I plead to hasem once again for a better understanding we turn to pink Pinkus writes in his magnificent safer he says the mag says there are 10 expressions of T if you have not read this safer this is an absolute must I would tell you raise your hand if you read the safer but I can't see you but what I will tell you is that you definitely should get the the safer the safer is written in English now and you should definitely get the sa it will enhance youra immeasurably and he says there are 13 expressions of 10 expressions of and the Y says there's 13 expressions of and says the says the Jewish people groaned because of the work and they cried out and rink says that the term crying with aadi and the term with a Zion is really the same expression and when a person cries out he's he cries out and he doesn't say anything that's that is and says it's because of this that it's the greatest of all expressions of prayer why because he when you cry out from the depths of your heart comes from the heart the heart is the most sincere form OFA and once again rinkis gives a marshall to understand this and rinkis says that a person is walking down the road and suddenly he finds a gang of Bandits coming the other way I don't know if this ever happened to you it's happened to me on a number of occasions used to be a group of hoodlums who used to hang out in Cleveland Heights and every time we would go to SCH for M there was always some sort of action not the type of action we love but there's always type of action so he's walking down and he sees the bandits that have their swords drawn let me be clear there were no swords in Cleveland heits but in herink is's Marshall there are swords and walking nearby is a fellow with the ability to save him and the person B is so relieved and he's relieved because he knows that the other person's going to be able to save him than and he calls out hurry come and help me but he sees that the person's not reacting to his call and at that point when he sees that the person's not reacting to his call now he lets out a shriek help me why because I called out in my normal call my normal cry and they didn't hear me the cry that comes forth without words you just yell at a certain point you're [Music] just why because you're you're calling from your kishkas if I had to make a title for this one I would say calling from my kishkas and a person needs to know that when you do that that's s there's no words it's an unarticulated cry from the depths of of his Nish and that is what David does and when we think about the war over the last 6 months seven months go back to the first night first night or day when we heard the news couldn't even articulate our words cried so hard passage of time we tend to forget but every once in a while stop and I would even tell you go into your backyard and maybe just cry out to Hashem doesn't need words just needs to be a cry from the depths of ourish until next time Zant
