Good Shabbos!

Parshas Eikev:

Chapter 7

12. And it will be, because you will heed these ordinances and keep them and perform, that the Lord, your God, will keep for you the covenant and the kindness that He swore to your forefathers.		יב. וְהָיָה עֵקֶב תִּשְׁמְעוּן אֵת הַמִּשְׁפָּטִים הָאֵלֶּה וּשְׁמַרְתֶּם וַעֲשִׂיתֶם אֹתָם וְשָׁמַר יְ־הֹוָ־ה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לְךָ אֶת הַבְּרִית וְאֶת הַחֶסֶד אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע לַאֲבֹתֶיךָ:
And it will be, because you will heed: Heb. עֵקֶב, lit. heel. If you will heed the minor commandments which one [usually] tramples with his heels [i.e., which a person treats as being of minor importance].		והיה עקב תשמעון: אם המצות הקלות שאדם דש בעקביו תשמעון:
That the Lord, your God, will keep: He will keep His promise to you.		ושמר ה' וגו': ישמור לך הבטחתו:

What is it that we trample on nowadays?

Taking the time to see our own unique qualities, and the special ones in others.

In fact, that is who we and they are, a pure neshama.

Bottom line:

See the G-dliness in yourself.

So that you can see it in others.

In order to come to the reason we are here: Deveikus to Hashem.

How can we maintain this mode of being?

By doing our avodah.

No joke!

So let's get to it!

Call me if you have any questions on any of the material we have covered until now.

Looking forward to the geulah (at the very least from within!)

Love, aviva rus.

Good Shabbos holy neshamos!!!
