Near & Far


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

He hides; we must search for Him.

He is here now; our hearts may speak to Him.


He is distant; we are small and insignificant.

He is close; we are His children, His beloved, His joy.


Indeed, He does not fit into our neat cubbyholes of close or distant, of hidden or present. He is all of these, all in perfect oneness.

HE is waiting for your desire
Humans eyes can see what they desire to see
Invisible for one
Is visble for another.

Search for the Truth
There HE is
Obey HIS Laws
HE will not be distant for you

Laws from HIM
Are hidden by some
Seek from your heart
And you will find.

Near and far
Actually there are only these two possibilities:
When I am at home, all the time we are in contact. I talk to Him, I try to understand, what He awaits from me and so on. Never must I search for Him, because He is always near.
But at the very moment, I leave the house, He is the creator of the world, very high above me, and I enjoy the beauty of His creation. (I live in the mountains, in a beautiful place) and even rain and snow come from Him.
And "Baruch she amar..." comes from my lips/my soul autiomatically. Just a few days ago, I wondered about this.
So I enjoyed, that you sent this today!!!

Hi Thanks for that. Here is my version:

HE is always there;
We do not see HIM

We search & then we find HIM;
The more we treasure HIM;
The more visible HE becomes.
The more intense we are with HIM
The greater the surprise appearances HIM makes.
Learn to search, with the right motive
To succeed!
