Speech vs Action From my experience, speech tends to rob action. It is almost as if speaking of a design or intention diminishes the passion that fuels the manifestation process. Reply

Hand and give birth.
I had an insight. As the rabbi said, Hei has e meaning of action. Thought and speech are together instead action is separated.
If you understand action as a way to materialize our thoughts and speeches, so give birth is actually another materialization of thought and speech.
Or, maybe I'm wrong...

Shalom shalom,
I really liked the understanding Andre Ranulfo. Só, give birth is a materialization of love when we make love! However what does happen with those poor children that was done under ripe or worse sicunstances?! How thougts and itelect worked together in this acionado?! Do you guys understand my question? Is that aplicable to the meaning of the letter or not?
