Découvrez comment le mot "pour" dans vos questionnements peut révéler un appel à l'action. Si une situation vous touche, c'est peut-être une invitation à agir, comme Abraham ou face à Sodome. La prière aussi est une forme d'action. 🎥 Extrait du cours « Quelle est la mission d’un juif ? » 🔗 Regardez la vidéo complète : https://youtu.be/C1yRYBho8p4 #Spiritualité #Foi #Réflexion #Hassidisme

And what interests me in this phrase, " Gam zu l'tova," everything is for the best, the keyword—and that's where I had the click—is the word "for." Why? Because the word "for" includes my questioning, it includes my lack of understanding, it includes a sense of injustice, a sense that this isn't possible. Oh no, not him. Oh no, not her. Oh no, this isn't right. This "for " includes my feeling, but this "for" is a call. What can you do if this has happened to you? A great principle that the Baal Shem Tov gives us is that if you heard something about a person and it touched you, it's perhaps because you have something to do.

And what interests me in this phrase, " Gam zu l'tova," everything is for the best, the keyword—and that's where I had the click—is the word "for." Why? Because the word "for" includes my questioning, it includes my lack of understanding, it includes a sense of injustice, a sense that this isn't possible. Oh no, not him. Oh no, not her.

Oh no, this isn't right. This "for " includes my feeling, but this "for" is a call. What can you do if this has happened to you? A great principle that the Baal Shem Tov gives us is that if you heard something about a person and it touched you, it's perhaps because you have something to do.

And the question to ask yourself is, what can you actually do? Meaning, when I hear out there that there is suffering, when I hear there is violence, when I hear there is ignorance, how do we take these things? How do we, as Jews, take things? We call this in Hebrew a " tz'akah.""Tz'akah" is a cry or a call.

When something makes me want to cry out , it's a "tz'akah." And that is Abraham's response. We see that when Lot was kidnapped, Abraham—now, his nephew hadn't taken the right path, okay? And he got himself kidnapped. He could have said, "Well, listen, he'll get out eventually." What did he do?

He went to war. He put on his IDF uniform and left to save his nephew Lot. And sometimes you say, "But you can't do anything about certain situations." But look even at Sodom, even the people of Sodom, when God tells him He is going to destroy Sodom. Yet they were wicked, they were evil people.

What does he do? He starts to pray for them. Because sometimes, even when you tell yourself, "I can't do anything for this person concretely," yes, you have one last thing left to do: pray for that person.
