Daily Chizuk #1206

The ba’aleh musar teach us that the service of the heart is very precious to Hashem. Chazal tell us, רחמנא ליבא בעי – Hashem wants our hearts. Regarding emunah, it is one thing to speak it, but it is infinitely greater to feel it in the heart. The pasuk says about Avraham Avinu, ומצאת את לבבו נאמן לפניך – Hashem found his heart to be filled with emunah. The heart is very private, only Hashem knows what is in our hearts and that is what makes that service so special. When a person truly believes in Hashem in his heart, it is a tremendous zechut which brings about an abundance of blessing.
Nothing can compare with true emunah in the heart.
