Abundant Merit: Opportunities in the Many Mitzvot
We all know whatever happens to a person is always m’et Hashem. Even when it seems like people use their free will to do things that affect us, the Sefer HaChinuch in mitzvah 241, as well as the Chovot HaLevavot in the Shaar HaBitachon, both write that people have no control over other people’s lives. Whatever they do is ultimately coming from Hashem.
The real understanding of the words shalom bayit is אני משלים עם הבית שהקב"ה נתן לי – I accept with happiness the will of Hashem to live in this house with this spouse that Hashem gave me."
It is Hashem who wants us to put in all the efforts into making it work. And if we view this as an avodat Hashem, it will be easier to accomplish. And if we believe it is what Hashem wants for us, it will be easier for us to accept. May Hashem help us do His will and make our marriages into the best marriages possible.
