Recognition and Help: The Key to Receiving Divine Assistance

Every moment of enjoyment and relaxation that we give up, to share in their pain, goes a very long way. Taking time out to go to tehilim gatherings and chizuk gatherings rather than going out for dinner, are wonderful things that show that we are sharing in their pain, aside from all of the zechuyot that they are bringing about. The Chatam Sofer writes in Bamidbar יא that although every person who experiences difficulties is supposed to accept them with love and happiness, everyone else around them is supposed to feel pain for them.
And even if we see that the people suffering are accepting it with joy, we don't say, ‘Baruch Hashem, they're accepting it, so everything is fine.’
No! Everybody else’s Avodah is to feel the pain that they should be experiencing.
When someone shares the pain, it takes away from the one experiencing it. Our family is hurting. It's up to us to remove some of their pain.
This is a great form of Sedaka.
B’Ezrat Hashem, if Hashem sees us uniting in such a deep way, it will arouse Him to bring the Geula.
Let us all keep this upcoming Shabbat the best we ever did. And may the zechut of Shabbat stand for us and protect us.
Shabbat Shalom!
