Three Fundamentals: Faith in His Hands during Sukkot
Become Calmer
We know that Hashem runs the world at large and our lives individually. We know that everything Hashem does is the absolute best for us. But somehow these concepts don’t always register when we need them to. There are times when a person works very hard to achieve a certain goal; he makes all the necessary hishtadlut and hopes for the outcome he is anticipating. But if he doesn’t get it, he becomes very disappointed. At those moments, it’s very hard to truly take to heart that Hashem was controlling everything and did bring about the best possible outcome. It requires the person to pause and think about what is really happening, to bring the emunah that he already has to the forefront. If someone can do that, besides for the endless rewards he will receive for it, it will also help him to become much calmer and feel soothed.
