welcome to their late partial hello
dolly I'm Johanna and it's without a
doubt - and dull ones movie this week's
Torah portion or should I say Torah
portion which is us our attitude to life
and how strong our faith in God must be
and I just hurt my hands both hands how
many days in a week seven how many days
till Shabbos well today's Friday but in
never mind you already know that there
are seven days in the week and that the
seventh day is the day of rest the holy
day of shop it's not nearly as popular
knowledge is that we count sets of seven
years and every seventh year is a
sabbatical year a year of rest a year of
Shabbos God desires that every seventh
year the land the Land of Israel should
remain fallow don't do any work with the
ground for six years you shall sow the
land work the land do whatever you need
to do working with the ground but the
seventh year stop sorry in order to stop
the video and yes still today there are
many farmers of the Land of Israel who
in the seventh year of this cycle are
privileged enough to fulfill this
mitzvah which they do with tremendous
faith in God who provides and this is
what the midst is about farmers well yes
but there is tremendous meaning for us
us non-farmers about farmers no let's
look at the week
for six days do works and on the seventh
day he rests the Dave Shabbos Shabbos
among many other things is like a
spiritual workout to put things in
proper perspective my money-making job
isn't what's making me money it's God
who provides God's day of rest reminds
us that it's not our work that gives us
a livelihood it is God and through us
fulfilling his commandments we receive
Shabbos reminds me that I am not at all
in full control of my life and my bank
accounts but God who creates all
sustains all now the weekly Shabbos
workout lasts but one day but imagine it
for a year this is what the farmers do
now don't get me wrong
Ethan God doesn't mean not working in
fact when speaking about Shabbos the
Torah says for six days you shall work
because for six days you shall work just
with faith that it's God who will
provide for you through your
we must realize that we only work
because God said we should work God
makes our work the medium through which
he provides for us the Rebbe explains
there are three levels of faith that we
can have when working one is that I work
and I'll trust in God that he will help
me succeed to that I trust in God
forget me to succeed but I know that
he's going to provide I'll work hard
because he said I should create a good
medium for which the blessing should
flow but I know that he's going to
provide for me and then there's number
three the sabbatical year and this year
God doesn't want for me to create a
vessel through which to receive the
blessing he wants me to lay back with
total faith in him which this attitude
wouldn't say from God maybe have
revealed goodness as a whole with the
arrow which is totally shot a time when
it will be totally revealed how it's God
who sustains all time a dual lamp route
and it's without a doubt - and so it's
