it's time for Rabbi minkowitz weekly
tour lesson a place where life's most
difficult questions are answered here
with his spiritual perspective and
insight Rabbi minkowitz welcome to this
week's Torah lesson this week's Torah
portions Bahar the question of the week
is what is true Faith so in this week's
Torah portion pasha's Bahar we have the
Mitzvah of shemitah the sabbatical year
where God instructs us to work for six
years and the seventh year the land
shall I fallow
and the question is how are we going to
live if the land is going to lie fallow
there's not going to be any produce so
God tells us he will give us our
blessing
that despite the fact we're not going to
work we will have everything that we
need in other words in the seventh year
you can sit down you can dedicate the
year to study Torah doing mitzvot and
God will provide everything that you
need so the question is does God want us
to work as he does for six years or does
God want us to sit home and study Toran
dumit's vote as we do in the seventh
year and the Ruby explains a phenomenal
idea
that ultimately what God wants from us
is to realize that all our blessings
come from God that means the years that
we're working we should realize even
though we're working but the success and
the work the blessing is coming from God
the year that we're not working we see
it in reality
but the goal is that we should take that
year that we do nothing and really
everything comes from God in a real way
because it doesn't come from any work
that we're doing
and we go back to work the following six
years
we should realize when we're working
that ultimately who's the one that is
making us successful and who is the one
that's giving us blessings and
everything that we do it's coming from
God so the answer the question what is
true Faith true faith is realizing
whether we're working or we're not
working ultimately all our success and
all our blessings come from God himself
