Daily Chizuk #0909

The mishnah says in Pirkei Avot that we are so beloved to Hashem, He gave us His delightful treasure – the Torah. And Hashem showed us additional love by telling us how precious the Torah really is, like it says כי לקח טוב נתתי לכם תורתי אל תעזוב – “I have given you the greatest gift, never take leave of it.” Part of our preparation for Shavuot is working on valuing this precious gift. The malachim in Shamayim refused to let Moshe Rabbenu bring it down to us until Hashem helped him do it. It is the most coveted possession in the entire universe. Chazal call it Hashem’s toy and we have as much of it as we want. Those who know this hold on to the Torah with all their might and never loosen their grip on it. Our greatest sages spent their days and nights delving into the unending wisdom of Hashem that is found in the Torah.
The more words of Torah we speak, the better off we’ll be. Hashem told us it’s the greatest gift, let us value it the way we are supposed to and show our emunah in Him by living according to all its teachings.
Shabbat Shalom & Chag Shavuot Sameach!!
