Be Hashem's Shadow: He Mirrors Our Actions

The Sefat Emmet writes on the Pasuk,ה' צילך-"Hashem is our shadow": Just as our shadow acts as we do, so too, Hashem acts with us, according to the way we act. Therefore, he continues, if we can rise above our nature, and do things למעלה מן הטבע, then Hashem will break the rules of nature for us and bring us salvations in wondrous ways.
The more Emunah we acquire, the higher we will be able to rise above our nature. When we reach very high levels we can merit miracles.
When a person acknowledges in his heart that Hashem is the true God and there is no power in existence other than Him. "ומבטל בליבו ואינו משגיח כלל בשום כוח בעולם"- and he subjugates himself completely to Hashem, and disregards any other power, then in return, Hashem will remove from him all harmful forces.
Hashem is our shadow. When we are able to rise above nature, then Hashem will act with us above the rules of nature.
