Rabbi Yaakov Musheyev - Parashat Naaso

wouldn't it be awesome if Hashem made a miracle like a really big miracle that would prove to everyone that saw it that that he exists and that he he's legit um you know you know that that would be great it seems like wow that's all we need right and then people start taking a show seriously the answer is that wouldn't work it's happened already in fact recently um for example the United States Army does not study uh Israeli Wars when when they have their think tanks and the reason that uh that they don't study Israeli Wars Schaefer brought this down is because they say there's nothing for us to learn these are miraculous Wars even the American non-jews admit that these wars don't make sense they put it through their their their super computers and the computers don't even produce a result where is all wins incredible and yet we don't see everyone in Israel you know suddenly uh becoming Believers it just it just doesn't happen and the reason why miracles don't change people and this could be the reason one of the reasons why hashems stopped doing open Miracles or limits them is because people don't take action immediately we have to take action immediately when we get inspiration when we listen to our inspiring lecture right after this video take a few minutes to think what can I do to turn my inspiration into action even in the most minute way possible um and that's what the nuzzer does when he sees the Sota he gets inspired by that situation that says I don't want this to happen to me because I'm a human too all humans are subject to Temptation and and and that Pitfall of Temptation is sometimes subject to exposure where everyone finds out about it it's very embarrassing I don't want that to happen to me so I'm going to take this inspiration turn into action and I'm going to stay away from wine and I'm not going to make my fancy hairstyles and uh just for 30 days and an onlooker might think it say to himself you know 30 days that's it I mean what kind of commitment is that we see in the homage he's uh he's praised the the tour makes a big deal out of him if you look inside this for 30 days what's the big deal you just did something for 30 days okay the answer is no it is a big deal because any inspiration that's accompanied with action is huge and can really change a person's life even if it's a small change even if it's for a small amount of time and so let's do this within our own lives anytime we get inspired let's take something upon ourselves even if it's not noticeable by other people uh what we've taken upon ourselves in let's do it and let's be inspired
