The Chofetz Chaim’s Guarantee - R’ Yaakov Asher Sinclair

[Music] thank you I remember when I was young there was one phone in the entrance of our house on a little table and a chair to sit down to make a call now anyone without a phone in his pocket is considered to be a little pretentious or a little weird and nobody writes anymore LOL we just text spelling mistakes and all and as fast as life has become so habits the Sonos its challenges a couple of decades ago if someone wanted to do something improper he'd have to travel to the Seedy side of town risk being seen by a friend or a teacher going into a shop and confessing his tivers to the person behind the counter nowadays people don't need to prepare to do something wrong as soon as the yetzer strikes Bingo the Avera is right there at your fingertips quite literally how does one fight such a battle you fight it by using the enemy's weapons the media brainwashes us with the culture of consumption of instant gratification Olam has a we need to dry clean our brains with images of deferred gratification of Olam Habbo the covesheim writes in Nitro Israel that when someone overcomes the yatesahara for Arias for immorality his head becomes encircled with a light from Heaven a Halo we can't see it but in the time of Ghazal that aura was visible the kavasan goes on to say that someone who overcomes his yatesa especially today merits that not only he but all his descendants until the end of time will be blessed with the virtue of its courageousness and the strength of his character and their nature will lead them to do what is hatov and hayasha what is good and just think about that burn that image into your consciousness standing behind you are your children your dear children your sons your sons who you want to schneid in Yeshiva your daughters who you want to be tanua marry well and build wonderful Jewish homes that's what the kovitzkrime promises one moment can save your children but that's not all standing behind your children are their children and behind them as far as your eye can see reaching exponentially into the future the number of all of your descendants hundreds and thousands of them are watching you holding their breath waiting to see what you will do will you succumb or will you elevate those thousands and thousands of lives and your name for all eternity through a single moment's self-control [Music]
