Tirtza - Parshat Shlach- A Shabbat.com Message

can you recall a moment you made a decision that changed the course of your life I'm pretty sure you can in this week's fire shot Allah teaches us a lot about how to just add in those moments after a year among cyanide that people packed up their portable sanctuary and came to the borders of the promised land can done they should have entered the land at this point but instead they sent in 12 spies one from each of the 12 tribes to check out the land after 40 days the spice came back bringing not-so-good news ten of them weren't the people that the inhabitants of the land are warriors and Giants however two spies Joshua and Kalev are the only ones who insist that the lens should be indeed Concord as that commanded the people we that they'd rather go back to Egypt and face this challenge and because of the lack of trust Hashem decrees that Israel's entry into the promised land shall be delayed 40 years this moment is known in history as the holiday of the shaba of the status day of judge history on this date both the first and the second temples were destroyed it is so unfortunate that a day of tragedies resulted from a moment of a lack of trust in God of course the loving God would continue to assist them in their conquering of the promised land they had been promised that but you know what's interesting later on the parsha Hashem tells Moshe that because Kalev one of the spies was the friend and he trusted God he was going to be brought into the land and his descendants would possess it you see a moment of lack of trust in Hashem who is in control of everything can even affect generations into the future when you trust God and remain positive about circumstances Hashem blesses you and you inherit the promise even when you second-guess yourself remember that your Creator is always by your side and it's all goodness shabbat shalom
