what is stopping meshiach
from coming why is mashiach
not here i think i have an answer to
this question
i think i have figured out why
michigan what's stopping from coming
how do we want god to relate to us
we'll talk in the singular how do i want
hashem to relate to me
me yitzhak
the three worst sins that we could
possibly commit
and we're taught that the entire nation
was guilty on some level
either by condoning or accepting letting
it happen
these three were terrible sins how long
was the galut as a result of that
aaron i'm picking on you tonight you are
the deserted pick-on
how many years was the first galoot
70 seventy what exactly i'm perfect i'm
glad you got that
70 years
the second galut was because of
sinatrinam
baseless hatred which particular aveira
was that
how many years are we in galore for the
second average two thousand
two thousand plus years
so the second beta magnesium we're still
in galut for seventy thousand years for
sinatra but for the worst sins we can
imagine we were
we were only in galu for seventy years
so now
i'm not sure why everyone has not
figured this out and i'm not really sure
why there are so many shillings online
today that speak about
you know all of the terrible sins that
the jewish people are doing
and not enough online talking about
sinatra and of course the reverse we
want to be positive
what's the positive way of saying
baseless love i want to share with you a
story tonight
i think it's a great story i actually
made it up
now i'll be honest with you i love the
idea of being able to make up your own
story because
you're in total control of what happens
in such a story unlike reality
because reality you're not in so much
control of you know i wanted to be
slim and handsome and in the end i'm
just handsome
now i would love to be slimming handsome
but that's not under my control
but this story is under my control and
let me share with you the story that i
came up with imagine
the moment we've all been waiting for
which moment is that
who's been mashiach exactly
the moment that we've been waiting for 2
000 years
imagine we were meriting to have that
moment happen right now
and of course so we got the whatsapps
flying around
guess what what's that what's app
here now does facebook still like you
know do these things
is facebook's still in or it's out
myspace
so you get to aol the myspace i'm an
old-fashioned guy so we'll get to
facebook
you know you might even get googling on
this because they're only worth it like
a couple of billion dollars
a couple of hundred billion dollars so
you got google facebook whatsapp
twitter i think twitter is pretty big
right now doesn't doesn't the
president use twitter a lot they're all
sending messages mashiach party tonight
at eight o'clock unbelievable rabbi is

not unbelievable i'm trying to believe
it huh
i'm working on it where's your ramona
mashiach
is here you gotta believe it it's on
facebook
twitter they're all saying it mashiach
party tonight
at eight o'clock the problem is
like my posts nobody's paying attention
you know how many times can you like
your own post i mean i've been
trying to get the likes up but it's just
not going anywhere
you can like it one time huh you like it
one time
no i want it to look like everybody
likes it so i like it over and over
again maybe we'll do that then you
need to make a twitter and then say that
everyone likes this got it
now i'm all set thank you what's your
name benjamin has set me straight i
gotta make a twitter
so now i gotta explain to my wife why a
teacher or smack a rabbi
sort of has to make and now a twitter
account

your mind are you confused
i am confused that's why i'm here you
know what
i've been here for tennis i'm still
confused so if you're looking to get
clarity
you're in the right place all right
so back to the story twitter
google aol is that still around
never mind forget aol instagram snapchat
instagram snapchat tick tock
bing bang boom smoke signal you know
what is there a bing bang boom
place yet i'm making the bing bang boom
bing bang boom says meshiach is here
tonight 8 o'clock party
so unfortunately people are just so busy
because there's so much
out there today with this social media
so
of course i heard the news somehow
because my student told me who has a
smartphone
i don't have a smartphone not a new
shiva at least
and so i heard about mashiach coming
somehow through
my smartphone at home and so i'm at the
party eight o'clock i come with my suit
my tie
because of course i'm ashkenazi for this
story and i'm looking at the clock it's
eight o'clock
i'm sitting there with a bunch of other
nerds and
because we got nothing else to do and
we're like okay where where's mashiach
when is this party starting enough it's
already 8 30
8 32 yekish what's going on
we said mushy party tonight at 8 of
course being the meshach party
hashem was there and believe it or not
he was listening
to my thoughts and i guess some other
people think of the same thing
and all of a sudden this voice just
comes out and says
you think i'm starting the party of
meshiach
and all my children are not here yet
there's the meshiach party he's here
is just at the doorsteps it's all the
time already
what's stopping mashiach what's stopping
the party from
being started so a few of us religious
guys with big beards
are there right and we're saying okay
we're here
we follow the mitzvahs when is misha
coming why isn't
here and hashem says
you think i'm starting my party and my
children are not all here
when all my children will be here that's
a time to celebrate
that's the time to start the mashiach
party
go back out there and get them
and i'll take it one step further how
could you
think about starting a party and your
brothers
and sisters are not here
and now we come back to the beginning
and now i get serious
we started with what's stopping the shia
from coming
we asked how should god relate to us
what kind of judgment do we deserve
so here's my insight here's what came to
me today
you want god to be nice you want god to
love you
you want god to treat you as a son how
do you
treat his other children do you treat
them like brothers
do you treat them like a brother then
maybe you deserve for hashem to treat
you like a son
but if you've got no time for them
hashem's
other children then why should hashem
have time for you
why should he bring meshech
what's stopping from coming i got the
answer
simple symbol to say but almost
impossible to do
have a heart feel
the other person don't just look at him
feel him can you feel the person next to
you how about a person you don't know
starving sad depressed on medication
on drugs maybe can you feel him
or you're too busy
when we see the other person
as our brother when we feel
that he's a part of us you're going to
come to the party of meshiach and your
left hand is missing
no you want your left hand with you
so you want that other jew with you he's
a part of you
you're a part of him what's stopping
mashiach
bottom line i don't have to learn all of
shah's which i'll admit i haven't yet
in a gilgal maybe i did so maybe i
actually do know all of sha's
what's stopping meshiach coming it's not
jewish philosophy
it's not jewish mysticism it's caring
and feeling and making time
and even willing to be uncomfortable
getting into your personal space for the
sake of another
when we do that hashem will do that for
us
because ultimately he's the father we're
the children
we have brothers and sisters and if i
can stop thinking about only me
and i can think about my brother and
sister and cousin and so on
then hashem will definitely think about
me and us and all of us
i'm not a preacher although i did a good
job
but i'm not a preacher and i said
already that it's simple
simple the solution is simple but
actualizing it
and doing it is almost impossible almost
we can do it we can
slow down
the motions we can slow down
the the hustle and bustle of life and
create enough time for someone else
we can do it we can do it
and when we do it meshiach will be here
one short story a my says
this is what happened to me one day that
i was able to
with hashem's help slow down my own life
to be able to have ears to listen and
eyes to see
walking down the street
on the jersey shore which is where i
spent a lot of time unfortunately
i'm walking and of course i was in a
very happy
happy mood why because i realized god
live god
is real and he's here he's with me
unbelievable
way to walk down the street with hashem
and that was when i first started doing
shuvers
so i felt it and i was in that moment
very happy walking down the street and i
look to my right
and see an old man sitting on his porch
and i say hello how are you sir
and he responds in a very unusual way
i'm like
and i'm and of course again i'm walking
so i didn't stop walking i was saying
hello
figuring i'll continue on my way and he
just
he calls out begging for help begging
for
someone to listen and
even in that state of mind i was already
like
at least five yards past him and i'm
like wait a minute
wait a minute this is not normal this
man is hurting this man is calling for
help and i turned around
and continued the conversation sat down
with him in a few minutes he was
bawling crying on my shoulder
and we had our conversation
now what happened of that conversation
i'm not absolutely sure
i went on and realized as i was walking
that if
i didn't take that extra moment to pay
attention to that man calling out for
help
take that extra few moments to stop and
listen
and come and sit down with him then that
would never have happened
never have happened
okay so you'll say flaming balshuva
we can all be flaming about shooters all
the time
or halawa maybe we should be flaming
about shooters all the time
we will live a different life a better
life
i want to add a story from today because
it's very easy to talk about
times when hashem lifted you up to
heaven and you were literally
you know flying high walking on earth so
of course you were able to see
beyond the superficial but just tonight
i was sitting at home trying to prepare
for this talk
which half of it is still here so i hope
you guys have patience
for the second half of this
and i'm thinking about what do i want to
tell you guys
i see you guys every day fresh
bale chuva and i'm an old man already
old man
i've been through this one day too many
i'm starting to feel that you know i'm
turning 50
where where is this all going and i'm
like okay great i i'm looking forward to
opportunity to speak
to you guys young full of life full of a
future i'm saying what do i want to tell
you
of course i told you most of it or some
of it
love it care concern feeling and my son
comes to me and says
something interesting he says you know
what abba
i turn now this is a whole big issue
which might affect shidduchim in the
future but i'm going to say it anyway
we let my son play some type of video
game kosher
o you supervision not bad but oh you
anyway he's been playing this game again
he learns
during corona times you know we need to
find things to fill the time
he learned book hashem he just finished
massachusetts he's only 13.
you know i would love to finish have yet
to finish it
and we let him have his you know fun
time also he's a kid after all
i'd love for him to be like reva yoshi
just you know finishing more gemara's
motherboards but we need this time
so we'll then play this video game now
he's been playing this video game
in his spare time and he's reached level
400.
okay 400 and
something happened with the computer and
he turned it on
and was back to level one
now here i am about 15 minutes
or maybe 10 minutes before i had to give
this talk
thinking to myself i really need to get
my thoughts straightened out
and he comes to me and he says abba
i just turned on the computer i'm like
waiting on the beautiful just it's
dinner time
like you understand listen listen and i
almost didn't listen
but then i heard he said you know i turn
on the computer and we're at level
one i was at level 400 and it could have
went in one at the other
and this sounds very trivial right who
cares about the video game
and i guess in this course of what i was
preparing i said to myself listen
what am i what am i going to come and
speak to you guys about tonight feeling
the person next to you in his world
it's a big thing that his game has been
playing for months
in his spare time went from 400 to zero
these guys thought again
i'm going to tell him listen a son it's
only a video game
it's only a video game no big deal
don't sweat it is that really relating
to where he's holding
and how he feels about what happened no
what about me you know person has a
profession
oh he's a lawyer he's got a case it's a
big case is getting paid money
ultimately all this gosh mute all this
physicality
is small stuff the gemara message says
don't sweat
the small stuff small stuff ultimately
means nothing at the end of the day
when it comes to your neshama and the
eternal life all this small stuff is
nothing
whether it's a video game whether it's a
new car whether it's a thousand dollar
painting
whether it's some kind of project you're
working on for months it's all small
stuff
so i said how am i going to relate to
him now he said his video game went back
to
zero so of course
as i'm working on this idea and i was at
the point actually bid you
of feeling for the the other guy
not just seeing not just you know giving
him a moment to hide
feeling what he's going through and i
said to myself you know what right now
that's that's in his life big
wouldn't be fair for me to just ignore
it
that's just one example one example
we are all faced with situations that
present themselves
on a day-to-day basis hour by hour
ultimately we have to really focus on
and make
the the the icker the main thing of our
life
the interpersonal relationships if the
second base dimension was assured
because of
then the way to bring it back is the
reverse it's all about how much time we
make and how we treat
how we look at and how we feel for
someone else
