Liberate Your Blessings

Baruch Hashem!
Phenomenal!
Thank you Rabbi Tzvi Freeman for sharing this teaching from the Rebbe zt"l with us.
I have been embracing these teachings of Chabad more and more which has been incredibly beneficial. This one somidifues what I have been doing. Gratitude.
Thank you Chabad.org. השב

B”H I am nothing but the sum of choices I’ve made throughout my entire existence. I know by my life experiences that taught me love, respect, dignity, discipline and compassion. Pride, arrogance, fear, resentment and vengeance never improved my existence. Torah, Wisdom and devotion are blessings from above by The Most High. I know He has mine and all who put their trust in Him our best interest at heart. For His words “My will is that none fail.” I can’t understand why someone would think of or insinuate that suffering, pain, illness or death is His will. I’m not perfect and I need HaShem to guide me through this life He’s given me. I trust Him with my entire being. I love and fear Him. It’s keeping me humble and faithful. Blessings come from above as His ways are higher than mine. Shalom Elohim השב

Good 🌻 Morning, [2021]

The lark sings melodiously in the early morn. The rooster crow to alert you that the sun will soon be rising, and the crickets' sad songs goes to sleep. Peering out of your window through the morn's soft midst, you see the fading shadows of the violet sky give way to hues of red, yellow, and orange beyond the horizon. A small gift box beautifully wrapped and tied with a delicate blue ribbon is sitting on your window sill. For me!? Joyfully, you slowly open it. It's a crystal stem glass etched with roses, and it is filled with the most fragrant potpourri! An array of dried crushed flowers made anew. The gift of a new day, the gift of new beginnings, the gift of the Father's Love. Thank you!

Baruch HaShem,
🕊💜
Have a "happy" day. השב

Easy for me to fall into 'why me?' when something 'adverse' happens in my life.
This morning I have been feeling deserted by a friend who 'missed' a daily check-in.
I began to look into how I was responsible for 'all actions' and reactions and found this in the Daily Wisdom. Along with the lightness of the illustration (love it, thank you) I am going to 'make room inside' and fill my day with love and caring, opposed to Fear. Thank you for raising the curtain. השב

Although I agree with this article, the Disneyfication of the world has led to severe economic crisis globally. Two whole generations in the 1st and 2nd world workforce were raised to believe "if you just believe" then anything you desire will come true. Economic data suggests this has led to pervasive laziness and greed and declining productivity per average working adult. There is a subtle nuance between that view / this article. Namely, who knows best. For example, a small economic correction may seem devastating to somebody who loses his home. Ask him if a market correction is a good thing. He may say no...but if it prevents a global economic collapse and ensuing dark ages like occurred in prior global history, it is a major blessing in disguise. In that case, believing G-d knows best, and even tragedy is good, allows our friend to rise above and find opportunity in loss. I have been homeless, and I truly say, blessed is G-d who keeps faith with he who sleeps in the dust. השב

Huh? השב

I love this picture. My life seems to be adversity upon adversity, but I think about Job. He had horrible suffering much greater than mine. According to the Midrash I am remembering third hand, he rose to such a high spiritual level that he was able to be a voice of reason to Pharaoh countering Balaam’s recommendation to kill all the Israelites in Egypt. If you follow the timeline through the story of Job: 1. Job was righteous and it got the attention of G_d and the accuser. 2. G_d allowed the terrible suffering of Job. 3. Job in his suffering cried out to G_d and was able to speak with G_d more intimately than most people. 4. G_d spoke to Job about how amazing His creation was, not even the people, but the animals. 5. Job was then able to pray for his friends. The accuser meant to use the suffering to destroy Job, but G_d used the suffering to increase the spiritual sensitivity of Job and save the Israelites and ultimately, G_d’s creation that He loves. Thank you! השב

Good Morning!

Keeping me on track. Honing; bringing it in.

Thank you, Rabbi Freeman! השב

But I do get it - it's the power in how we perceive - which i guess is also part of our freedom of choice - a gift from G-d. And we are G-d's partners. השב

I will try to be that mountain. But I really wasn't feeling all that "mountain-ish" today. השב

It is so amazing to me that Hashem has used this daily dose so many times to be aligned with something I'm going through currently and be so uplifting. Yesterday a coworker said the same things to me that my not getting a promotion was a blessing in disguise. Even though I would have loved the position,, I believe and deserved it Hashem has a different purpose for me and the person promoted. There is a bigger picture that I am not aware of, but I trust Hashem. I still wrestle with it a little bit, but this all has a purpose.
In 1993 my father was murdered. Even then, before I believed as I do now, I trusted there was a bigger picture. I mourned for years and still miss my father everyday,, yes, I feel he was taken before his time? I don't really know. But still I trust Hashem.
I am not Jewish, perhaps my grandfather from Lithuania was Jewish, not sure. But coming to embrace Jewish beliefs and thoughts has enriched my life immensely. I feel like I have come home. השב

Of what comfort are these words to one who is going through (G-d forbid) something like the Shoah? Is there not suffering so great that we can not perceive the benefit with our finite capacity for understanding? השב

This is fine when dealing with bad things that happen to one's self.

What about when horrible things happen to others?!
Can one just shrug it off and say it is a "Blessing in Disguise"?

Is one even allowed to be that presumptious and dismiss another's pain?! השב

Thank you Rabbi! I printed this Daily Dose so I would not forget and remember to change up my attitude.
I lived out my justified anger for the past 17 years which only seemed to benefit everyone who I was angry at, a lose, lose situation. Living out the drama and the story was not a way to live and I became physically unhealthy too. I started to change 2 years ago. It has taken me twice as long to return to health as it was to create my sickness, blocking up my bodily system with the negativity, depression and frustration.
Sending many blessings for us to be able to catch ourselves when we are drawn into our old unique negative patterns when faced with a 'bad time' and instead of the old passionate way, bring in goodness and ecstasy into ourselves and then the world. השב

Liberate Your Blessings! I really like this one. Permission to blow it up to poster size and frame it for my living room? There is so much truth in those words. השב

This is such incredible words of comfort and strength. I read it several times yesterday and I will keep reading it to remind me.

I am so grateful that I signed up to your emails. They give me tremendous chizuk every day!!

May HaShem reward you with all of His blessings forever! השב

a landscape the bird throwed off its cape and became one with the landscape השב

Healing words that sooth ones soul from the flames . It does not put the flames out but allows them to complete the good work within us to refine us a pure as gold . השב
