Above As Below - Daily Dose of Wisdom

Looking at your world from Above, all is good.

Looking at your world from within, things don’t always look so nice.

Until you connect your world from within to the world above. Then the goodness flows downward without distortion.

How do you make that connection? By clinging tightly above. By putting all your trust in G‑d.

G-d and I

Elsewhere in Chabad I've read that the Judaism of a Jew has never been of his own self, that it's made up of tradition, history, family and his Creator and presumably his connection to G-d is made up with the same traits. In contrast, the psalmist yearns to be near and under G-d's shadow. In his yearning paramount he declares; "The Torah of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the Lord is trustworthy, making wise the simpleton". Psalms/Tehillim Ch 19,8. And that is the nature of a simpleton's connection.

The Love From Above

The Love from above is pure,
The Love from above is Holy,
The Love from above is a sure thing,
HIS love is pure and holy only,
HE blesses HIS people every day,
They must put their trust in HIM,
HE leads us in HIS pathway,
And fills our cup to the brim,
Seek HIM while HE may be found,
Love HIM wholeheartedly,
HIS way are true and sound,
Bless HIM, Bless HIM wholeheartedly.
