Bitachon 93 - Bitachon Protects Our Children

you're listening to the 93rd edition of the be talking podcast we continue now with some quotes from silkim and Michele so we spoke of many ideas from King David and now we're going to get some ideas from his son this is the pasok which is the very first possock at the beginning of the madriguez Autumn section I'll be talking she quotes translation with all of your heart and do not depend on your own intellect well really being us means your own intuition don't trust your intuition of course sometimes or many times we should trust our intuition when it comes to matters they'll be talking go we'll be talking let's see there's some explanations here but Hashem Hashem it's like since they've been as a put your trust upon Hashem and the reason here is you studied in University you know the rules of the game you start you learn business you know what PR is about you know all these things don't trust it don't depend on it shitimar heater I know the rules I know the I know the way business works I know how to get success trust in Hashem put your faith in Hashem either as the author of Nevada says don't play by those rules meaning don't assume that those rules will work and put your faith completely in Hashem or alternatively always understands when you do your efforts you have to constantly remind yourself it's not my efforts that are accomplishing this it is Hashem who's helping me and I need to just put all of my efforts into trusting Asha IM sesame do not depend upon your own Bina your own intuition look I'm doing things smart I'm doing things intuitively I'm doing things in a way that I know works it's worked in the past I know it's gonna you know I believe it's gonna work again don't think that for sure it's going to succeed just because you're doing it with wisdom everything is in hashem's hands and not in the hands of the person's intellect that's my sort of stuff it says we need to remind ourselves even as we put in efforts even as we are doing ishtadless even as we are involved in Normal healthy efforts that we do in order to succeed reminding ourselves that that doesn't guarantee success even if it worked before it may not work again it depends on Hashem depends on Hashem the old ways may or may not work says Rashi Hashem very interesting Rashi gives us a completely different idea which is also essential and important and that is that when it comes to doing what's right when it comes to doing hashem's world when it comes to succeeding in life it's not enough for me to depend on my own wisdom it's not enough for me to use my own intellect and my own understanding take your money it says Rashi take your money and spend it on finding yourself a rub and finding yourself a guide a spiritual guide who can help you and guide you based on spiritual principles based on the ways of the Toyota based on the intellect of the Torah my intellect may or may not work but the tire is timeless the tire transcends time the turret has been here for 3 300 years the Jewish people exist because of the terror because they kept the Tyra so if I want to succeed take take that money that you would have invested in the stock market in your business take that money and spend it on finding a roof and finding somebody you can ask questions to spiritual questions to that's Rashi now we have the Melbourne trans with all your heart Adam the truth is system album that the the true wisdom the rules of wisdom the all-encompassing rules that if you knew them all if you knew all of the ways that people were the business works that the economy functions etc etc if you knew everything it could be that you could figure it out and succeed based on those rules but it's something that's beyond us it's really Beyond us and therefore not so you can't attain them with the with in an absolute way it's like trying to guess what what the weather's going to look like in a week from now weatherman might know what's going to happen later today might even know what's going to happen tomorrow you can't know what's going to happen for a week from now if you take a you think if you make a study of of all of the times the weatherman was wrong and what's going to happen in a week from now it was probably would be at around 98 I'm not making up the number but but that's what it would seem to me right it's not possible to know all of the rules and all the ways that everything interacts it's not really possible to know that there are some Basics that we can know human behavior and how they think and how they work and what drives them to to purchase things Etc but to know the whole picture and to really guarantee success it's not possible and actually if you depend on your own intellect if you depend on your own intuition it's going to end you up in a different place which is the opposite of wisdom which is the opposite of the truth is that's why the plastic says don't trust your own intellect yeah a person cannot really acquire that intellect based on his own wisdom it's something which is god-given you want to know why people succeed if you ask people in business why does this person succeed you ask people in music why does somebody succeed people will always say the truth they know and down in the hearts deep down in the hearts the truth which is and the person succeeds because because he has Divine help s Hashem Foundation which we've spoken about numerous times over the past few weeks and months that if I want to succeed in life there's only one way really there's only one way and I can Bulldog my way through for a certain amount of time but it does it does get old it does lose its power right so at some point I have to realize that what is the true path or what is the spiritual path what is the the Jewish path for success in life not just in Rocking it's not just in spiritual matters but in physical matters this is the way the path is trust in Hashem with all of your heart do the Mitzvahs of Hashem fulfill God's will that gets you aligned and in sync with God and then God commanded us and gave us the statues and laws of the Torah not just for us to be his slaves well for us to be able to have a truly good life to be aligned spiritually with the with the spiritual reality the basis of the world which is the Torah don't depend on your own intellect depend only on Hashem and then you will have success true success material and spiritual success okay now we have another plastic initially the small explanation is King Solomon tells us when a person is Hashem and a person has fear of Heaven which is an interesting word we talk about your sashem your shamayim fear of Heaven what does that mean it means that I respect God I respect the spiritual reality of the world and I'm willing to do willing to try to align myself with God's will having you as Hashem having that fear of Heaven having fear of Hashem it's a powerful guarantee interestingly tells us that when I have that besides for the spiritual guarantee if you're a shamime if I fear heaven and consider what does God think I care about that I care am I doing what's right in God's eyes so that's a powerful guarantee that things are going to be good in my life but not just that it's going to reflect in my children my children will be protected by this as well on one hand when we speak about be talking when we speak about faith and Hashem when we speak about a sense of confidence that God is going to take care of us of course it rubs off on our kids start to hear them talking that way as well and we start to see it and they see it as well but besides that he says there's another roboticism person should trust in God's power who is Shem that God will save the person who fears God person fears God you know you don't want to say it like I'm getting in on God's good side but as we've spoken about many times when I align myself with Will I'm I'm in that space I'm beholden to God I'm in a space that space is a very similar feeling inside of the inside of the psyche as a feeling of be talking I'm aligning myself I'm in the space of God and and the result is what some Hashem shows greater Divine Providence to that person because he's aligned with Hashem foreign so the children of that person a person who works on be talking it's something that the kids will also so to speak inherits they also get a special protection as a result of the parents who have been talking I remember she was speaking about stories of particular people who are great probably be talking the things that they did during World War II in order to to be saved they had tremendous they were saved a miraculous way very interesting stories they brought down actually admiration's book faithful for fear and their children also experienced he mentions they also experienced that a girl was on a bus something happened the the but the window shattered and the piece of glass hit her the contact the the um contact lens that was in her eye the contact lens prevented damage to her eye and when questioned about it the girl said yeah our family has a special practice all the time we have unusual Divine Providence in our lives this protects them and saves them from anything bad that could have come upon them we have you talking we're investing in our children people are worried about their children and worried about guaranteeing their children's future and and and giving them a good education making sure they have paranasa taking care of them helping them to get married to get off on the right foot you want to you want to help your kids really want to help them properly I'll be talking develop you talking giving them a gift for life okay that's now we're going to read another puzzle initially Hashem Ashraf I'm going to translate the public simply and we'll see how much forsham explain it someone who is wise in a matter will find good Ashraf you want to trust in Hashem wow that's that's like Beyond that's he's incredibly joyous it was a life of absolute Joy Moscow how nice he name is someone who pays attention and works on and thinks about and she's trying to figure out what is it exactly that someone wants and he's trying to balance his ways the Folly says drochov he's trying to find find balance in his life that person will find good inside says Rashi kishum she is let's say a person sees in front of him as an opportunity to do hashem's will to do God's will the full Mitzvah to perform a commandment and yet it seems that if I do this thing which is the right thing to do I I got to do it it's the right thing to do there's a there's a chance I might be damaged by it there's a chance I might lose out I might have I might undertake a financial loss but still he does it because it's right he does it because it's right Ashraf praiseworthy you see foreign this is as Rashi understands it this is his praise this person is praised it's an incredible praise to be willing to do what's right and that's very much in line we'll be talking I'm willing to do what's right because it's right Come What May Come What May right a real person a person who's trying to do God's will a real person is willing to do what's right even if it's even if it looks like he's going to lose out because of it reminds me of a story in faith of fear as well another story where there was a particular person who she was speaking to who had lent particular from Institution a million dollars and the place was not paying back the Russia said why don't you bring him to a best and bring him to a rabbinical Court have a right to that money and the man said I don't want to create a Khal Hashem that that a from institution an orthodox institution is not paying back the million dollars that I'm owed Hashem for such a thing to be brought in front of a best thing he said but but they're making not you let me cry can you imagine this a million dollars like I didn't want to get back his million dollars because he didn't want to you didn't want there to come out and someone is not paying him back that's about that's what I'll be talking ashro says [Music] everything that the way to get what we need to get the money we need the way to to get our needs met there's certain natural ways hey I think that I reckoned invested in pay me back the million dollars you owe me there's another way and that is aligning with hashem's Will as we've spoken about so many times that's what brings about true good in a person's life seems like I might lose out but in the end I don't lose out into the stuff in Moscow Miss benefit s when a person thinks and he looks to the end of the matter he will find good because he will succeed him right a person can't succeed right of course another person does certain things and seems to have success right looks like I did something and I succeeded because of the efforts that I did or whatever it is David but if I if I'm Miss binding into it if I look carefully at it I'll see that the success came from Hashem I realized that it was because I trusted in Hashem was because Hashem gave Meyer because God gave me special Divine assistance if I trust in Hashem despite it looking like it was my efforts that did it Etc that person is truly praiseworthy it's hard to to believe that my efforts are not that which brought about the results which I saw the success that I saw but if I can attribute it to Hashem despite the way things look that's that's awesome that's incredible that person is praised finally we have the Mao Nevada Institute so a person who thinks into the matter and tries to figure things out with his mind how and what's the right thing to do how can I succeed so you'll find good the age now there's a difference between someone who succeeds versus someone who is wise right right when we talk about we should have success right so that's a word that we use to talk about things that just kind of happen based on your model based on how things run in the world for the person who's wise so he's not just relying on luck so to speak he's looking for good paths good means right there's there's a few ways that I can get to success do the means justify the ends I want to be successful in a spiritual way I want to let's say be a rashishiva I want to teach people to do the ends justify the means I can I can hack my way through Bulldog my way through well right so you can't figure things out and you can't succeed that way there's a better way there's another way Sheena Moscow dwarf Clau I mean you're not trying to figure it out you're not trying to figure it out not trying to to line up all the pins line up all of the dominoes so that I can knock down this one and in the end I'll get that final thing that I seek rather I trust in Hashem and I believe that I'm not looking for luck not looking for Success because I'm so smart and I figured out how to get success but rather I'm just saying look Hashem you know what's right you know what's best you know what's best for me it's you know what's best for everyone around me I was Ashraf so this is really this is really praiseworthy this is really something that a person can be happy about this is really something that a person can consider himself truly fortunate fortunate in a spiritual sense is because this is the real success this is the real joy that it's a spiritual Joy CE a person falls into the arms of hashem's Divine Providence because a person who is happy in this way is much is much greater than someone who's successful because now we're speaking about a Joy says the malvin a spiritual joy and you can't compare the joy that a person experiences From Success to the joy that a person experiences from spiritual success from knowing that everything that's in my life really is really is from God and really is what what Hashem wants and not something that I squeezed out of life but rather something which is exactly where Hashem wants me to be because it's Hashem guiding me and leading me and bringing those good things into my life exactly as they are not too much and not too little thank you so much for listening see you again next time
