Daily Chizuk #0748

What happens in a person’s life has already been decided–his lifespan, his children, his livelihood. But lest a person think that things can’t be changed; when Hashem told Avraham that he is going to have a child, Avraham replied, “But I see in the stars that I can’t have children.” Hashem then taught Avraham a lesson that we hold on to very tightly until today. He lifted Avraham above the stars and told him, You are not bound by decrees – אין מזל לישראל – Jews can rise above the mazal.
We are never bound by destiny. Our good deeds and tefilot can bring salvations and blessing to ourselves and to our children עד סוף כל הדורות.
Chag Sukkot Sameach!!!
