Daily Chizuk #0667

The Shomer Emunim writes, in the future, a person is going to rise to the highest levels in the merit of his emunah – levels that the other mitzvot cannot bring him to. He brings a pasuk in Yeshaya, “פתחו שערים ויבוא גוי צדיק שומר אמונים” which the Midrash explains to mean, according to the level of a person’s emunah will the different gates in Shamayim be opened for him. Emunah can lift up all of the other mitzvot. Just like the heart is the life of all the other limbs, so too emunah is the life to all of the other mitzvot. The stronger a person’s emunah is, the better performance he’ll have in every mitzvah.
Emunah connects us to Hashem like no other mitzvah. The rewards for emunah are unimaginable. The more we learn about it and teach others about it, the more it will become ingrained in ourselves.
