Shnayim Yomi - Pinchas - Chamishi - #5 - Rabbi Elisha Freedman - The Power of Consistency

Good morning. It's Thursday and we're going to learn kamishi today. There's a fascinating medish in which a few tan are debating what is the most foundational in the one of that of the tanom says the basis that makes sense. Another Tana says it's similar to what Hill says. And then another T of Beni says something very interesting. He quotes a from this week's para today's aliyah. What's the most foundational in the says one of the lambs you should do in the morning in the morning every day. How do we understand that? How could that be the most foundational trumping Shama Israel and the tell us uh foundational idea which would make sense because this is according to the most foundational in the inspiration great moments happen and we take the inspiration at those times and a person can sometimes do great things once in a lifetime twice In a lifetime many died they said with the words some a person go out of his his comfort zone and go beyond his bounds and do something which is tremendous to help save another and it's tremendous. But the growth of a yid happens in the dayto day in consistency. Showing up day and day out, morning and night. Every morning, every night, doing what we need to do. And if we didn't do something, we missed that morning, then continuing the next day. But showing up, coming there day in day out in the little struggles and the small things, the things that people don't notice, just the basics. If we do that with consistency and throughout our life, take every moment, grab every moment and ask what does Hashem want from me right now doesn't have to be in front of many people doesn't have to be relevant doesn't be what's considered to be a great act. What do I need to do now? Should I go to the B right now? Should I take care of my family right now? Presence, presence of mind, doing one thing after the other consistently serving. That's where true greatness lies and it's not a once in a lifetime flash of inspiration moments through that that creates the of a life of aid to that.
