Daily Chizuk #0262

This month of Elul is signified by the pasuk in Shir HaShirim, “אני לדודי, ודודי לי– I am for my beloved and my beloved is for me.: It is a pasuk which shows the great love between us and Hashem – He is our Beloved and He loves us beyond imagination. And if we are לדודי, if we return to Him and say, “We want to be close to You Hashem, We want to serve You the best that we can,” then דודי לי – Hashem will lift us up and bring us closer to Him.
Hashem is waiting for us to come close to Him, but we have to make that first move.
Let us all dedicate ourselves to Hashem and say אני לדודי – Hashem, I want to be close to You. I love You. And then, b’ezrat Hashem, we will receive the Siyata Dishamaya that we need and experienceדודי לי , Hashem lifting us up to be next to Him!
