Daily Chizuk #0892

During these days of sefirat ha’omer, we are supposed to be working hard on improving our mitzvot ben adam l’chavero. Chazal tell us shalom is so great that Hashem allows His sacred Name to be erased just to help bring peace between husband and wife. Bringing peace between people is the vehicle that is going to bring the Shechina out of it’s long exile. Chazal also say there is no vessel that can hold beracha other than shalom. It is incumbent upon us to be mivakesh shalom. We have to humble ourselves and forgive people, and humble ourselves and treat people with respect. Shalom opens all the gates of beracha.
