basic judaism

Recently I heard a discussion at my Shul on whether things and people are designated to be holy or if it’s intrinsic. I believe when it comes to you and even me it’s intrisic.  That we have a certain holiness or G-D wouldn’t have brought us here. For the odds of us actually making it through the canal are literally a million to one starting with Adam & Eve meeting at the right place up to your parents.   If anyone in that line didn’t perform the act at that certain time not only wouldn’t you be born but your great, great parents wouldn’t have as well. Now a days the act of genocide of the unborn (abortion) has to be added to this mathematical equation of you as well.  Therefore you are here for a special mission that G-D has placed in you from your birth.  If you don’t get it exactly right this time but are leaning more to the positive you’ll be given another trip down the canal to get it just right the next. For your intrisically holy and the world wouldn’t be the same without you.

Those lacking resent those that have…faith for the following reasons listed below.

(1) JUDGEMENT- They feel those that individuals with faith are judge and jury convicting them of their sin. When those of true faith  continually look to improve their world within before taking a step outside.

(2) CALMNESS-  It annoys those who are really annoyed that you appear to have a certain calmness and a deeper understanding of the problems that occurring right in front of them.  Yet you of faith are just annoyed at the moment but also feel a moment of peace and tranquality coming soon.

(3) MISSING- Those that lead the secular life can’t believe you of faith deny yourself so many of the things that they can and do possess.  While those of faith find a greater calling then immediate gratification.

(4) G-D-   Individuals lacking faith want to blame while those with faith want to praise.  It annoys those that lack faith that you don’t see the cup drained out instead of it filling to the rim if not here then at the gates above.

I would have been dead by now if I didn’t choose life several years ago.  For at this age I realize how important it is to the body, mind and soul to make sure I have a day to rest.  Work is great but let’s face it just as an automobile can’t run all the time you have to learn to change your oil. I see now how the stress of trying to achieve in the workplace constantly can make you fall straight down if you don’t put your body, mind and soul in park. This doesn’t mean the engine isn’t running for their is a whole world outside of your business cycle that needs to be explored.  Just remember the world will survive your day of rest and so will you. Thank you G-D for giving me this day as you allow me to choose life.  Good Shabbos to all.
