Every word of tefillah affects the entire world. The kavannah behind the words are:
* Hashem exists
* He hears us
* He is interested in what is happening to us
* He has the power to help us
* He intends for our good
* He acts for our benefit
* And we affirm all of these essential tenets of Jewish faith…with every single word of prayer (R’ Yehudis Goleshevsky)
We are Hashem’s eternal nation. Our covenant is sealed in His holy Torah; this is our eternal connection.
Tefillah helps us recognize that we are totally dependent on Hashem for everything. Tefillah is not just words. Tefillah is emuna!
Today’s daily dose of emuna is dedicated to the refuah shleimah of Mordechai Menashe ben Henya Ruchama a father of 5 who was recently diagnosed with a very aggressive form of leukemia r’l. May Hashem shine His healing light onto him and all of Klal Yisrael who are sick and suffering b’karov, b’rachamim, Amen.
