ever Ponder the mystery of creation and
wonder why didn't Hashem simply create
the world in a split
second what is the need for the famous
and drawn out 7-Day process isn't it
just as easy for hasham to create the
world in 1 second as it is in 7 days why
not merely snap his fingers and create
the
World perhaps a reason is to teach the
world a fabulous
lesson and that is that in life things
take time there's a process the world is
not
instantaneous babies need to be nurtured
to sit to walk to talk to eat by
themselves a child needs time to learn
to read to ride a bike to drive a car on
day one or two or three of creation upon
looking at the world and seeing only a
jungle of water light and darkness you
would have been bewildered you would
have thought this is a mess what's the
point of this Hashem says slow down
there's a process and your job is merely
to put in the daytoday progressions and
eventually it will lead to a beautiful
world it's much like teaching a child to
ride a bike the first three days he
keeps falling off this isn't failure
this is teaching his Muses the proper
positions and soon enough he's riding
down the
street Judaism puts great emphasis on
the concept of a Seder a process an
order when we go to SCH we dve in from a
sitter in Yeshiva there's first Sader
and second Sader and night Sader every
boy in school learns the shisha Sid Mish
on PES we have a Seder the weekly Torah
reading is called the sedra the wedding
process is called the Seder caducan our
lives are one big seder it is one big
process with a precise order to
it by creating the world in a 7-Day
process Hashem is telling us all to
trust the power of the process to never
discount the effort that's been invested
for lack of perceivable
success because success is a process and
our job is to ensure that the process
keeps on moving
