Daring to Believe

„Divine faith and all its treasured qualities must be freed from all its fetters, must shed all its outer husks, and stand alive in the radiant shining of its rays of light, which illumine all the worlds with the splendor of their glory.”From Shemonah Kevatzim III, 266

Faith is an engine of life. It is what roots optimism within us and builds will, a force capable of building worlds and repairing them. When we are afraid to believe, when we undermine our faith and our strength, the world does not receive its light. Precisely in hard moments the world needs faith, needs the engine of reality that will set it in motion and repair the world.
