the ninth day of the which the is and to title I'll say it in Hebrew and then I'll try to translate it in Hebrew you would say strive and work hard to be brave but in English it doesn't sound good in HEB it sounds much much better but nevertheless means that you have to go on some Endeavor you want to try to go to strive to do something and Amit is when you're brave or courageous from coming from the courage now doesn't mean that I have to be brave to be I have to put a lot of effort to be brave so we learn that when mosenu died and Yoshua had to take the nation into Earth Israel and Moshe Renu of course gave him the Kosh gave Yeshua the orders and the commands what to do and he kept repeating over and over two words to bring Yeshua the right courage and he kept telling him Kakak if you're familiar with the book of Yeshua then you probably know what I'm talking about that he repeats it over and over kakat which kazak means you should have strength and emat that you should be brave so you have to have both the strength and The Bravery is I need to know when to use my strength and only to subdue and to win evil I'm doing it to any other thing that I'm misusing my strength and everybody has a certain strength to them and I just need to know when to use that strength and if I'm using it or I should say better misusing it than um bringing a blemish to the power for the C that Hashem gave me but if hasem already gave me strength in something it's only to use it to win evil but I have in me this powerful strength now hasem says now let's see you're using it the right way and the question is there's two questions first of all if I'm aware of my strength and I believe from what I see based on my experience that most people are not even aware of their strength they don't even know that they're strong in this department but now comes another question let's say you are aware of your strength do you know how to use it with that said when do I use the gor I need to know when to use it sometimes you use too much G you can crush somebody can you imagine a person with a lot of force using too much force then the damage can be unbelievable I also need to know when to use this gor and the only time I need to use gor in me is when I'm dealing with something evil so nothing happens in my life by chance there's an order in my life and usually when a wants to see how I applying my he will throw at me a challenge and the more the challenge is hard the more I have power of gor in me to overcome it so if I'm dealing now with a very big challenge you can think of whatever challenge you have in your life if Hashem gave you a big challenge means that there's enough G in you to deal with it if not he wouldn't give you such a thing we think that we weak but the reality is the more the challenge or or the power that is opposing you is strong means that theame also gave you the right power to use it
