Joy Unleashed - Daily Dose of Wisdom

There are many kinds of barriers: Those from within and those from without. Barriers between people. Barriers that prevent you from doing good things.

Barriers of your own mind and your own hesitations. There are the barriers that exist simply because you are a limited being.

Joy breaks through all barriers.

Based on letters and talks of the Rebbe, Rabbi M. M. Schneerson

There is joy in His presence

In a Michtam King David said :

"tovdi 'eni orach chaiyim sova machovt et- paneicha; ne'imovt biminecha netzach."

"Thou wilt shew me the path of life in thy presence is fulness of joy at thy right hand are pleasures for evermore.."

It is only in HaShem we have true Joy.

Shalom!

Joy Unleashed

Still Sukkot heading to Simcha Torah and even in my circle I keep hearing about Joy while also at the same time all kinds of commotions happening in the world from Europe to South East Asia to Wall Street of New York (of course Israel is a give). By this moment reading your daily dose I arrive to a conclusion! This joy must not be a condition within myself because I will never have it. This Joy must be the L-rd Himself! The more I know or see or hear Him: He is the Joy! Nothing, no one can make a person so bubbling up unless the River in Ezekiel keeps rising up to the ankle, to the knee, to the waist, and taken over that we swim in it! The L-rd must be the Joy you talk about! And people somehow must know the L-rd in such a special way that when they dance with the Torah they look they are taken over!

Joy...

Since my husband died six years ago, I never felt real joy - this kind of joy and excitement at the very same time -.The joy, that the Shechina is with me, that G-d loves me and I will be together with Eli one day, is a much quieter joy. I can not compare it. But how then can I break through all barriers? Of course I want to break through all of them. Maybe what I lack G-d will do in helping me?
