[Music] thank you to be here even saving one Jewish child the entire organization is worth it called Mohammed the hundreds and thousands that you're saving Hashem should give you the strength to continue all of your data cornish I'm in tonight's topic was called how to achieve Emunah it's a very large topic to cover in a short amount of time how to achieve m1 up there's different types of omona there's Emunah called yeshua tischenko headed by in this day mo na that i could be saved any second and I know her chef can come through for me and I know I can get her to for I shall Emma and I know I can get a shedule that's one type of Emunah that type of Emunah is very important key boy hope hope to Shannon Cavanaugh Shannon this is what's going to produce the Messiah it said if the Jewish people only had the only merit they had was key boy that would be enough just the yearning the hope for Hashem salvation there's a question everyone's going to be asked after 120 called City Tarly issue I did you anticipate the salvation simply it means did you anticipate mushiya the Benton levy says it means something else as well did you anticipate Hashem saving you in your current situation were you hopeful or you you down were you saying I'm finished it's not fair I'm never gonna get half it's never gonna what will you uh Pete what were you hopeful see be tardy Yeshua did you anticipate a Shem salvation in your own life for that type of omona how do you acquire that type of omona for that type of m'hona do you need to learn about Hashem you need to hear stories of how Hashem saved others I have other people in the predicament you are in were also in someone called me last week their husband's in the hospital he needs a pair of lungs very quickly and I told this woman I told her first of all you should have cavanaugh in the words in the your said on board any thought that a sham could create it if why but I told her I had someone a few years ago with the exact same situation as you and three days before the doctors were gonna said it's over a pair of lungs came I said she said you don't know what that just did for me I got so much hope because you heard someone else what happened to to hear stories about how I said we could save when there seems to be no way out I will just tell you one well-known story that surfaced many years ago because this is not going to be my topic for tonight there was once a boy from Yiddish a lion and this boy was diagnosed with liver failure he needed a liver transplant to survive and the doctors in Israel told his parents to take him to Brussels Belgium the world center of liver transplants the parents contacted the center the center said no problem but your son is going to be at the end of very long list and the boy didn't have that much time yet for each person to get a liver by the time they got to that boy the odds were practically zero so the boy went to see his rabbi and he said rabbi it looks like it's impossible could I just stay here with my family and you do shall I him and at least enjoy the last days of my life with my family rather than sitting in a in Belgium when I don't know anybody and the rabbi told him what are you talking about never give up Hashem could do anything you do yours he does his you have to go and he gave the boy his ook okay okay and the boy went and he went with what seemed to be impossible odds and he waited by he got the doctors that told him that if a liver ever comes about and has to be transferred immediately you're better off staying somewhere near the hospital and who knows hopefully it'll happen on April 14th 2010 a volcano erupted in Iceland propelling massive billows of hot ash and smoke across most of Europe the most of the continent became a no-fly zone because you couldn't see the planes couldn't see the very next day a patient and Brussels passes away and his liver is available for transplant they start calling the patients on the list and every single patient needed to fly to get to Brussels to make that transplant they finally got to the last person on the list this boy who was down the block and his life was saved nothing is beyond dashing and therefore we are obligated it's not just a nice thing Cavanaugh Shem the way you learn about this like I told you is to hear stories other people who went through what you're going through I'm not going to discuss this tonight but I will suggest we send out on a daily basis stories directly zoo Connie muna if you would like to sign up you could go to living Emunah with an H comm and register where you can send a request to living a muna one two three at gmail.com and you could hear deadly kazoo on these types of stories what I want to focus on tonight it's a different type of m'hona how to acquire the mo na that everything that happens in our lives on a second to second basis is orchestrated by Hashem and how every single thing that happens to us could it be better than it is the Chimera tells us Anna down no keV it's bajo la mota Li in Ken magazine allow me la mala a person doesn't even stub his toe unless it was first to create by Hashem in heaven you know what that means that means if you were ever walking and you bumped your toe into something you know what had to take place excuse me for that to happen in shamayim there was a bed teen sitting some angels were saying she should stop her toe others were saying no she should it and Hashem is deciding yes no has ships it's beneficial she needs it excuse me and then she stops her toe that's what happens mafia zina live in the mouth you don't just shrimp on something does it just happen to be a rock there that I fell on and I scratched my elbow it's bucket e-zine Allah believe Allah every thing that happens is magazine Allah Allah Allah to understand that our physical lives are totally beyond - M will remove so much stress so much worry so much heartache but people worry

the 613 mitzvot and get close to Hashem in the place where he put you and there is no better way to elevate yourself in this world than to acquire this meda of emunah a person can become oh you know

could go to the greatest of all time with understanding Divina Mellon tobira Bella used to wake up at midnight he slept in the gamourai says 60 horse prayer worst breaths he was up praising Hashem the whole night but what caused a vita bella' to become the fourth leg of her Shems chariot when he was being ridiculed by another mansion even get up and he said leave him alone it's not him it's Hashem he recognized when a person's yelling at him it's Hashem and then he got lifted up much higher this is what a Mona can do for us omona can make you great if your purpose in this world is aboard artisan if your purpose in this world is gaining all Alaba and that offends hyeme is telling us this is the way then the first way that you are going to achieve omona is recognizing how important it is because when someone knows how important something I gotta do it look how important this is I didn't realize I don't know how boy this is the first step recognize this is of chief importance omona in hashem especially in our days like the Prophet Habakkuk said about the end of the days I think Ben when I told you yet to be a Sadiq in today's times you need to have a Mona so number one to know it and we're not gonna do for you and when I was gonna relieve my stress and when I was gonna connect me to Hashem and then when I was gonna make me great [Music] now if I were to ask you what do you think is better having Hashem perform open miracles for us like Kiryat yam soup imagine living in the time we Asiya shem openly is it very fashion to perform open miracles boss whereas it been if i said to lead us from behind the tenor what is better than so if you ask me I would say open miracles what's your question see Hashem open miracles you know how many people are questioning where's I shown where's our Shem I don't see him anymore I do this this doesn't happen I go to bed I go to pray I don't make money I do this where's our share where's I imagine you could see a Shem openly listen to this camera the camera says instead his soft call honey scene instead was the end of the time period of miracles MA Iannetta Shahar so far Lila just like the first rays of dawn are the end of night so too instead is the end of the miracle time period now you scratch your head and you say instead is the end of the but that means there was nine hundred years of open miracles mccourt Kiryat yam sooth you name it then it's ten is the end of that time period and you know what we call her the first rays of dawn that means that the lyrical life is called nighttime and then the Taba is called daytime and the yard ot Vash as should it be opposite shouldn't we say as stared as the beginning of sunset not the beginning of dawn and he explains he said to be able to see Hashem in the dedicat ever is much better than having to see him through open miracles open miracle time period is a period of darkness why because you need a sham to open the sky and say hi Here I am when I'm here [Music] miracles are like a candle a glimpse Wow I shall is here you need candles when it's dark but if you are able to recognize Hashem in the TEVAR if you aren't able to pick up a cup of coffee and appreciate how Shem and every grain of coffee and say I know it's you you're ready in the light you don't need a torch you're living in the light hashem prefers that we see him through nature and the story have instead taught us that where you could have two people big time antennas talking and Mordechai happens to be there at that moment that he hears them and this and that of the chain of events that is a lesson for us to mashiac that type of existence where you could see Hashem every moment I don't need a way for the open miracle people say it's not fair I don't see how she openly you know what that means Hashem considers you worthy of being able to see him without the help in miracle you can see me easy easily there's a story of a man my sandwich aha his wife passed away and they just had a newborn Hashem made an open miracle and this man was nursing the child a man nursing his own baby so the Gemara says Wow , Gardo la danza this guy must be a major guy doll from Hashem to do that for him Hashem made him produce milk he must be a great man hamara boy yeah Idol Abba Abba yes is just the opposite come again who are that how bad is this guy then he made God change nature for him what does that mean what's the argument he's great he's not great for some reason Hashem wanted this man to know he's gonna take care of his child would have been better if I Shen gave him money he hired a wet nurse and he said you're so kind of Shem you gave me the money you found me the lady to do this it's on you but this man wasn't holding by that level so you know what I shouldn't have to do he had to change nature and give him milk so he realizes okay you realize my shadows taking care of you that's not the way he wants it he wants you to realize he's taking care of you when he gives you money to find someone to feed your baby we tend and I'm also at fault we tend when we train our children in Emunah when everything for anything something bad happens to them we tell the children it's from Hashem don't worry you know it's better for you it was good for you you don't know why it's good for you and we train our children but you know what they think in their minds anytime something bad happens oh that's Hashem he's always hurting me but it's for the good but what about when something good happens why don't you tell them when they got pinked to be the star of the play Wow I shouldn't picked you how was her shell picked you how come when they got it whatever they can the first my look I won first prize did you thank our chef at Russia what a chef yeah I shouldn't gave that to you instead of focusing on whatever something bad it was a shed how about when something was good that was Hashem we have to get to the level where to us the open miracle and the terror are one in the same let me give you two scenarios you have a man he's out of a job Friday morning he wakes up he has no money he needs food for sure but his wife tells him honey nothing in the kitchen nothing in the refrigerator we have eight children to feed could you give me money he says I don't have any money I'm sorry what are we gonna do her husband goes he starts crying Hashem I tried my hardest to get a job I can't get a job please support my family I need help he's crying five minutes later than the bell rings someone's at the door who is it we have a delivery for me for you a generous person donated money to a lot of families here's your's he opens up the envelope $1,000 cash stop bashing Hashem you so kind you know what they're gonna do that Friday night in that house they're gonna sing the praises of Hashem you're great I said you're great Wow scenario number two there's a man who was crying please I sham I need a job Hashem got him a job he gets a paycheck an out every Friday he comes home with a paycheck Friday morning he goes to work gets $1,000 it gives it to his wife she buys food let me ask you a question on that Friday night are they say gosh it is so kind he gave me a job he gave me money again I don't know I don't know it was that family singing the same praises why not because that son disguises themselves in the demo and he gave you a job with a paycheck does he deserve any less how Karratha Tov but we didn't we didn't see how chemin the Tavo we weren't holding I don't know I got a job just happened jobs pay money and that's it no see Hashem in the Tavor recognize everything is from Hashem we need to understand how to shove a little more because yes I can give you a class now for hours on the good that Hashem does for us I'm gonna give you one message anything you get in your life say thank you wash em I know it's from you but people don't come to me with problems when they have too much good they come to me when they're listening when they're lacking they need more keys look in that area I pray in a hundred times I wasn't answered where's Hashem it's not fair man came over to his rabbi he said rabbi our family but Hashem grew we need a new place to live I have eight children in three rooms in the house of three rooms total and I'm crying my eyes at every - M please give me a house let me find something cheap and he said I prayed 500 times I prayed so many times I prayed and I'm not answered I'm not being answered so the rabbi tells them let me tell you something you and Hashem right now while having a debate what's a debate you believe that life is about getting your needs fulfilled so you think life is I ask you that Hashem need to take your holiness Shama from Tophet kiss erica wood and put it down in this world so you can get a house you could eat and you could drive a nice car is that what he brought you here for you think that if you were answered for your prayers on the hundredth time the 200 time you think ah my prayers were good they achieved their purpose I got my house he says you are very mistaken very mistaken you came down into this world to connect to him to yearn to get close to him to cry - him to talk to him Hashem did you the biggest favor he gave you a need to call out him and you prayed 500 times do you know how valuable every one of those prayers were if a Shem would give you a hundred houses it wouldn't equal to 1/4 of one of your prayers you took on learning extra you took on that saying Lashon Hara what a fetish interview he gave you a catalyst to bring all that growth by the way you're not finished yet you have a little more when you finish what you need to do he'll throw you the house ok you'll get it at the end the house is being used to help you the prayer is the main thing and we cry and we say all my prayers they're not worth anything I didn't get what I wanted it's not the way it works it's backwards there was nothing better for us than to soar in Emunah and the pursuit says Hashem Siddiqui upon Hashem will give us nice Yana to elevate us now asan Nestle Hitler says he gives us tests to raise us and you have to know every moment of your life is carefully planned and your tests are coming exactly the when they're supposed to come to give you growth to give you greater prayers to give you greater Emunah but her son's tests are not easy they're not easy person I have someone in my learning program he's going to college and he was he had rabbi can come in the next few days this is a couple of days I have finals now chemistry final it's impossible I'm studying I'm this I'm that he's so nervous a college professor is giving you a chemistry test it's very hard you don't think Hashem his tests are they're hard he's not gonna expose make it easy but they're well worth it there's a boy he's about to survive his parents over here in America had no religion he wanted to improve he ended up going to yeshiva in Israel and he stayed in Israel and he was so excited he was ready to start a life of his own and it was time to go and she do him he went on on a date didn't work out but then he wasn't getting any calls no one wanted him it went on like this for years and he told his rabbi said rabbi what's wrong with me I know I don't have parents here I'm alone on this of that he says I'm broken so as rabbi tells them you're broken I have advice for you excuse me use your pain right now go to the Kotel right now pour out your heart - and pray with all your mind use your feelings to talk tension okay Rebbe I'm going right now and he goes to the Kotel he gets to the Kotel and he cries and he cries and he begs a sham he finishes he looks at his watch at 7:00 p.m. he gets in the taxi 7:05 his phone rings hello it's the shotgun we found a new girl we think she's good for you she's ready to go out tonight could you be ready at 8:00 he said I can't believe it five minutes after I'm finished unbelievable so she says the shot contest him do you want information about her you want a picture I don't need anything I'm coming I'm going that's it she's it he goes home he changes he calls eight o'clock he picks her up he calls the rabbi on the way rabbi you're amazing thank you and I says okay call me after I want to hear the good news he calls the rabbi at 10 o'clock he says rabbi you know I told you what I'm looking for in a girl this this this this this she had none of the above not even one thing [Music] zero it was not even close so he says what is this a joke what in five minutes after I finish Hashem does this to me and he gives me this girl what's going on so the rabbi tells them the rabbi tells that this is one of her shams tests are you gonna go tomorrow and still pray to Hashem with the same fervor what you're gonna say that's it I had enough it's over and if you're able to go back tomorrow your prayers become ten thousand times greater you're so lucky your prayers now will become infinitely greater if you could go back after that yeah it was Hashem but it was a setup who was feel good there was another man he tells his rabbi he says rabbi me and my wife my family we live in a certain neighborhood we live in this neighborhood we have to commute 45 minutes a day to go to work both of us and our children's yeshiva is also in that area and every day I pray Hashem please find me a house in that neighborhood that neighborhoods better in my eyes in every way it's close the achievers there everything's there but I said the end of my - fela if it's not good for me to be the Russian then I understand I need to be here and I've been praying like that for two years I'm happy fine if you want me here I shall love you see he says last week there's a magazine or a newspaper in my house I open it up I start reading and I see an advertisement for a house I see the picture it looks perfect a block away from where I work two blocks away from my wife right near the yeshiva and the price I couldn't believe it my mouth dropped I immediately said finally thank you i Shem and I called up the broker and the broker tells me sorry 30 minutes ago someone else just got it and I said what 30 minutes ago rabbi I understand I told that Shem if he wants me here I'll stay here but why do you do that to me why did he open up that thing why not this and the rabbi told him again you're being tested in your m'hona are you gonna say if I would have opened that article yesterday I could have been there I want to tell you something that house to you is as good as being in Australia it wasn't yours it was never yours it was never gonna be yours but you have a nice a on and m'hona because if Hashem wanted you to have that house he could have made a hundred and one reasons why you opened up that article yesterday the day before two days before it was sitting in your house why didn't you open it cuz you're being tested in your m'hona and if you're able to say a sham I believe it's you when it house is not for me and I know that it's just a test and I'm gonna pass then you soar to God allude you become great [Music] we have the ability to give Hashem so much man could come home at night imagine a man comes home he's starving he didn't eat the whole day he sees his wife on the couch reading a book he says ah my wife she finished everything she even has time to sit and read I'm so happy he's starving he goes over to the stove he takes off the lid of the pot and he sees it's empty there's nothing there she's on the couch reading and there's no food and you know what a husband could say at that moment Hashem I know you're in charge of my food and if I was meant to eat a big meal tonight my wife would have made it and I Shem I'm gonna take out some crackers and tea and I'm gonna trust you that you did this for my good you gave her Shem the greatest gift you give your wife the greatest gift and you give yourself the greatest gift because nobody in life could affect you not another human being if you're meant to get something you're getting it no one can take it away it's all about seeing Hashem and what appears to be TEVAR it appears to be my wife got lazy and she's on the couch no you aren't supposed to have dinner hashem set it up for you on you say on whenever we're late and we can't find the keys whether those keys up why can't you find the keys when you're late Hashem hid them from you it's an essay on right now yeah it's my attention it's an essay on how you gonna react someone disturbs your sleep get out what are you doing it's an essay on everything in life is an essay on we have to know our main purpose is to sauron emunah to see Hashem to say thank you a Shem I trust you wash em this is from you hashem every not all or nothing people are gonna fall and people say I'm such a hypocrite I tell people I'm on a mana mana and then I don't do it you're not a hypocrite so you found once get up the next time you'll be better someone was sitting in my office and he was he felt so bad this guy went through the biggest nice ion you can imagine not gonna give you the details now and what is he crying about I feel bad that I didn't have the omona that I thought I did I thought I would take it better I thought I would be praising a sham and I'm not I said you're amazing those thoughts alone that's what you're thinking about your life just now turned upside down and you're thinking about I wish I had better Ramona you're a Siddiq [Music] people have to know it's not all or nothing our purpose in this world is growth is connection dodgem and I want to conclude with one more point [Music] sometimes people feel distanced they feel that Hashem doesn't want them he's not listening to me he's pushing me away every time I try to get close something else happens I try to improve in this area and I get shut down I try to do this I get shut down and you feel like you're being pushed away and some people might say maybe it's cuz I'm so bad a Shem doesn't like me I do a lot of sins I do bad things I actually went over to him in and I said you want to come learn he said no I said why not he said cuz i Shem hates me I said why does that Shem hate you cuz I'm so bad I'm so bad Hashem hates me so why bother you know how much our Shem loves you I saw in this week's parashat we just read by y la jolla we had the episode of The Mirage Lima the most tragic episode the first two Shaba and then the episode of the map helium the people who tried to go into Israel despite more said telling him no another tragedy and what comes right after that seemingly something out of place the PASOK says when you bring a quarter bond I want you to bring why an accompanying and when you bring a quarter bond bring a flower offering to accompany it what in the world is this doing over here we had a whole book of ikana about Cordoba Noah now in the middle of the meadow gleam and then quarter and you sandwich in the middle some law is about bringing wine and flour on them as Bayer what is it doing here so one of the rabbi's explain with him I shot I forgot his name imagine you have a man Ezra and Joe Ezra and Joe and Ezra hates Joe he did something damn Ezra can't stand Joe he's his enemy Jonah's in mind Ezra but Ezra can't stand Joe and Joe is having a community function in his house important meeting and Ezra says I will not step foot in his house I'm not going and Ezra's friend said we need you there you're important it's a big meeting you got to come I'm not going to Joe under and they pressure him and he okay I'll go and he goes and he sits in Joe's house now there's a food all over he's feeding the people Joe comes around now with some extras comes around with wine Ezra you all want no not taking extra from you he comes around with some desserts can I give you a dessert no cuz I don't take any extras from my enemy I don't wanna keep your extras for yourself if you love someone pour it on I'll take more please thank you you know what happened Hashem gave us the whole book of Viagra quarter Bernard after quarter Bernard caught Bernard and he made a treaty with us he'll always accept our offerings he'll always be with us he'll never forsake us the Jews just went through a time period of sin after sin after sin after sin the Marigny and they complained about the man they complained about the meat and then they ran away from Odyssey and I and I had the meadow gleam and the map healing you know what the Jews are thinking they're thinking to themselves Hashem he probably hates us he's stuck with us so he's forced to be here so you know what a sham tells them right after all this my my child my sweetie next time you bring me a quarter bond I want some extras pour some wine I want some wine from you I want some flour from you please give me the extras because Hashem tells us I still love you tissue vos so easy come back just tell me you're sorry and come back you're never pushed away never in your life think that Hashem is ever pushing you away there's no such thing all he wants is you to come close [Music] you don't know how to read hash them sometimes but he definitely is bringing you in I'll conclude with the story I read two days ago story is in one of rabbi Spiros books the story is about a man named Charlie from Chicago Charlie from Chicago was in a battle tissue of a synagogue or institution where they're trying to help bring people back and he's there for years and he's not growing he doesn't observe anything he just comes to the lectures but he's not changing so one day the rabbi comes over to him rabbi are you something and he says charlie you've been here a long time you seem very interested I think it's time you make some type of move you gotta you gotta get you got to step up Charlie says rabbi you're right it is time I've been thinking about it I'm gonna accept upon myself to only eat kosher rabbi says wow that's great great but Charlie says starting tomorrow today is gonna be my last day he had this place in Chicago it's a restaurant an eatery it's called Superdawg da WG they sell hotdogs this charlie loves super dog he loves it to pieces so I gotta get my last super dog and that's it then I mean see he goes that afternoon for lunch to the eatery he sits down he orders his super dog he's sitting there and he's putting on the sauerkraut and the mustard and the ketchup and whoever you name it and he's sitting there he's about to sink his teeth into it and a man with a suit walks in businessmen and he just sits down opposite charlie he's waiting for someone he says hi how are you I make conversation it's talking to him Charlie he sees this guy he's talking about his school about this that he sees he's not leaving he says I can't take it anymore I gotta eat so he sinks his teeth into the first bite she sees him right so the guy tells him wow I see you like that you like that Superdog he says yeah really I love these things huh but interesting this is gonna be my last one your last one why are you stopping so I'm not gonna tell him about kashrut he says I told them it's too expensive for me I'm always feeding my children by this by that I can't afford it anymore this is my last super dog I can't afford it so the guy tells them you're gonna stop eating because you can't afford it let me introduce myself to you my name is Larry I own this place far be it from me to see a customer stop eating because he can't afford it he pulls out of his pocket a certificate and he says here a lifetime supply of Superdog Charlie he tells him okay thank you alright he goes back to his rabbi he says rabbi I don't understand I take upon myself to stop eating non kosher and I Shang gives me a lifetime supply obviously he doesn't care for my abode ah he doesn't want me to eat kosher so the rabbi tells him oh you cut it all wrong you got it wrong you thought you are only on the level of giving up Superdog that you had to pay for so you thought Hashem knows you're on the level of giving up a free lifetime supply right now you're holding much greater Hashem is demanding much more from you now you take this challenge and you run with it and I want you to take this certificate and framing and I want to remind yourself every time you look at it how much Hashem believes in you and Charlie he followed the rabbi's advice and that commitment led to another commitment to another commitment today he is fully observant and he has on his dining room wall the certificate from the lifetime supply of superdog because you don't know how to read Hashem you think he's pushing you away he's elevating you you have to learn more about Hashem you don't know go to people who know go to people and ask them what does Hashem mean we don't always know but one thing is for sure Hashem wants you he wants you close to him he loves you he never pushes you away and as great as you could become every ounce of improvement that you have in M Yuna is that much greater you become this is the Nissan of our generation living with our chemin de teba but seeing him every step of the way and the more we practice the more we hear about it the more we talk about it the greater will become we should have CI tardes Maya to reach the greatest levels of M Yuna [Music]
