Today’s daily dose of emuna is dedicated to the refuah shleimah of Dovid Baruch ben Chaya Tova a young man who has cancer in the late stages. May Hashem send him a complete healing refuat hanefesh v’refuat haguf among all of Klal Yisrael who are sick and suffering b’karov, b’rachamim, Amen.
Lasting change can only occur if we answer ‘no’ to the following question, “Can I continue living this way?” We can achieve change in every aspect of our lives ONLY if we feel there is absolutely no way we can remain where we are. To emphasize this point even more this feeling must be accompanied by a fiery, passionate and burning desire to change paths; “there is no way I am going to continue living like this!”
For instance if you wish to change your relationship with your spouse, are you willing to at all costs:
- Invest a greater amount of unconditional love even if he is not receptive?
- Express your desire to go to all lengths to bond with him?
- Extend yourself beyond human efforts to revive this relationship?
- Take the time to contemplate the benefits this would have on the rest of your family ~ thus motivating you to stick with your commitment to change.
- Visualize how your life would change if you could give or do more and be more accepting?
By addressing the above you will soon determine how strong your desire is for change in any area of your life, including your relationship with Hashem Yitborach! The answers should paint a clear picture of where you need to grow and improve to achieve that change.
