We come to judgement day this year on the heels of a complicated year. One of the lessons we see from the differences in the Hamas attack versus the Iran attacks is Hashem's complete control over the world. How can we use it to humble ourselves and focus on His Kingship before the Yom Hadin?
Wishing you a K'sivah V'chasimah Tovah and a meaningful and fulfilling year.

The error of the Meraglim can in part be attributed to a lack in Bitachon that Hashem would help them conquer Eretz Yisrael. Should we be worried that our flaws will prevent Hashem from helping us at times?

Built upon ideas from the Sum Derech and Sefer HaBoteach.Have a wonderful Shabbos
