- 0:01Garden of knowledge. Share number 23, if you missed
- 0:06yesterday, she have a listen because today is the solution to
- 0:10the conundrum that we will finish with yesterday.
- 0:15If I share and takes responsibility for diminishing,
- 0:19the ability to have a mother in him.
- 0:22What does that even mean? The prophet Micah in chapter 4
- 0:25of Miko under the prophet says on that day.
- 0:29I'm a shame. Gives them a speech as um says,
- 0:32I will pick up the lame and gather the outcasts and
- 0:35whomever, I have cramped Hashem promises that in the future.
- 0:39He's going to gather all of us, all the bananas for all the
- 0:42Jews, and wherever we are in the world and will bring them to
- 0:45Perfection because he caused us to sin.
- 0:48But giving us the it's a her The Prophet Jeremiah says as clay in
- 0:53the hand of the Potter. So are you in my hand?
- 0:57O House of Israel. Hashem is telling us that just
- 1:00as a Potter can mold the clay. Anyway he wishes.
- 1:04That's what I sham does with us. So if a person falters then it's
- 1:09on some level has shown caused it.
- 1:12The third passage of time from he has color, is he called the
- 1:15prophet So remove the Heart of Stone from their flesh and I
- 1:21will give them a heart of Flesh, ship holds himself responsible
- 1:25for the Heart of Stone. That makes us do the wrong
- 1:27thing. When he decides to remove it
- 1:31Hashem has the power to do so. What's amazing about these three
- 1:36crows that are gems. Taking responsibility for
- 1:40anything bad in the world. He does with us whatever he
- 1:43wants, whenever he wants, he can replace our Hearthstone without
- 1:47heart of Flesh. These passages are not An
- 1:52Absolution of responsibility on our part.
- 1:55Doesn't mean that we can do whatever we want to go.
- 1:57Well, it's not my fault. This is what this is.
- 1:59I've got a Heart of Stone. But it's the stimulus to Duffin
- 2:04how. So, if a shame can do whatever
- 2:06he wants whenever he wants, shouldn't we be begging him to
- 2:09lead us on that path of righteousness and to help us
- 2:12Davin all these Daven to Hashem to remove the problems that we
- 2:18have. But there's still a question.
- 2:24Hashem. Instilled, the eight to her and
- 2:25each of us, which gives us the power to do something wrong.
- 2:28But why, why would you do that? Remember the principle that
- 2:34we've been the? Underpins everything?
- 2:38absolutely, every experience in life is organized by Hashem and
- 2:42it's for the very best without the the equal inclinations to do
- 2:48good and to do bad, then there's no free choice without free
- 2:52choice. There is no context for reward
- 2:55or punishment. So if I shame would have left
- 2:58the moon in its original size and it Regional illumination
- 3:02equal to the Sun. So and mana and prayer would
- 3:06have been just as popular as Torah and intellect.
- 3:11And people would gravitate towards Eminem and prayer.
- 3:15Symbolized by the moon. And if people would naturally
- 3:18gravitate towards a mother and prayer just as they naturally
- 3:21gravitated towards logic and intellectual prowess, then the
- 3:24evil inclination would be stripped of its power.
- 3:26That would be wouldn't be able to do anything.
- 3:29But since the light of a mother and prayer are not in demand a
- 3:33person's key test in this generation is to strengthen
- 3:36himself in these very areas. More putting up your logic to
- 3:40one site. Bring that City are habitat.
- 3:45That sin offering on a rush like this, that a tones, as we said
- 3:50previously for Hashem. Roscoe Dash.
- 3:53Is that on roads closed? There's the new Moon, the Moon
- 3:55begins to be gradually restored to its full size.
- 3:58And what's this a symbol of of a renewal of hermana Hence after
- 4:05Hashem has reduced, the visible size of the moon.
- 4:07In the latter, part of the Hebrew month, he asks us to
- 4:10symbolically forgive him before. The moon begins to increase the
- 4:15visible part of the Moon begins to increase in the first half of
- 4:19the Hebrew months. Which as today is the 15th of
- 4:25the month, just to b'shvat. And we can see the whole big
- 4:29moon. Today is an awesome day to
- 4:32Devon. So, let's tap into that
- 4:36potential for today. Don't forget to dive intention
- 4:40to ask him to help you to the oven, and then go, David have a
- 4:45good day. Happy to be shot.
