we learn such a fundamental lesson i
love this
in this aliyah we look at the concept of
supporting the koanim supporting the
levies a person has to give him a cell
he has to give a tenth
back in the day most people were farmers
that tomatoes cucumbers scallions onions
potatoes so how are you going to support
the koani you know they have to eat
they're busy all day barak hashem doing
you the favor and taking care of the
benthamik dash taking care of the shules
doing the carbonate they're your him
your messengers to shem somebody has to
support them these rabbis are basically
24 7. hashem said unto this
and this aliyah you have to give maasel
if every jew gives a tenth of their
fruits and vegetables the corny will be
perfectly fine they're gonna have plenty
of food they're able to give their
families and their wives and family
foods they're able to serve and help in
the bet amigdas what a tremendous lesson
dated their life every single one of us
including myself it is very important to
give myself but the mindset has to be
not that oh gosh i have to give my sir i
have to give 10th of my money the
mindset should be like wow what is the
hoot that i'm a giver what is that i
even have the ability to give me a sale
i had a conversation with something like
that a couple of days ago where he told
me you know it's very hard when you make
let's say a hundred thousand dollars and
you have to give up ten thousand dollars
to marcel it's extremely hard ten
thousand dollars is a lot of money
that's like a whole family trip to lt
said i'm assuming 10 is a lot of money
so i told him you're so funny
you rather have no money or you rather
have 90 000
the 90 dollars that you have after
giving them myself was only given to you
because you were going to give myself
it's like working first the chicken and
the egg it's not that you have a hundred
thousand dollars now you have to give a
tenth my sale and now you only live for
90 000 no the only reason why you got a
hundred thousand dollars was for you to
give the ten thousand dollars to the car
you don't know why i shouldn't give you
the money it's not that you got the
money then you give my sale it's that
you have to give my a sale that's why
hashem gave you the money it's a whole
different type of mindset another lesson
we can learn about myself is of shimon
shkap or srimashikap says a beautiful
mashaan about giving the tenth percent
of your money of your wealth every
single time you make an income every
month by the salary beautiful mashaan
and i love it he says like this imagine
you have a company a business where the
owner hires a worker so you know when
you get first hired to the job you don't
get the best job in the company you have
to build your way up you have to build
yourself up
over the years so he hires a new guy he
makes some let's say he's the cashier
okay
he sees that the guy's consistent he
comes on time he's not late
the guy's uh you know doing everything
correct he puts the checks in the cash
register he doesn't steal not even a
dollar everything is calculated he takes
it seriously he sees after one year you
know i like this guy let me give him a
better position he makes him he's in
charge of all the cashiers and of the
year the guy's consistent he's doing
well he doesn't steal anything he's
honest he's on time he's he's
he's uh you know he does everything fast
easy and it helps at the customers the
guy does a good job he likes him he then
he moves him up to a new level in the
company he gets a much better job he
tells her i trust you so much i want you
to be the ceo of the company i see that
you worked so well you know how to
handle the money the first year the
second year the third year i see that
you consistent you're honest you're good
with money you know how to calculate
everything i trust you so much i'll make
you the ceo of my company says of
shipment cup
gives a person wealth he tells you here
here's the cash register here's the
money now let's see what you're going to
do with it if a person is really careful
with said the code and maasel and not to
steal and be honest in business hashem
says you know what after the first year
rosh hashanah you're going to get an x
amount of money after the the next year
washington says you know what you were
honest the whole year you gave my sale
you gave your tenth any money you take
care of other people you give to the cow
you were honest i trust you with my
money next year i'll give you even more
money the next year president gives my
cell he doesn't honest and he does it
with a full heart hashem says wow look
at this guy he's so consistent he really
knows how to take care of his money he's
a good guy he gives to the guy he gives
him a sale i can trust him with even
more money the next day the third year
show will give you even more money when
a person is careful with the money
hashem gives them when a person is
careful with ma'a to give a ten percent
of your salary hashem says look at this
guy i can trust him with the money i can
trust him with my cash register let me
give him more money and hashem upgrades
you to be the ceo of more wealth and
more wealth in this in this world that's
why it says give my assail in order to
be meet as shared to be wealthy because
hashem watches to see how careful you
will be with the money that gives you
that year and how do you show that
you're careful when you give a 10
percent 10 10 percent of today every
single time
