Mountain Climbing

Tzvi Freeman

At the final ascent,
you cling to any crack or crevice
to pull yourself to the top.

That is where we are right now:
Any spark of light, any mitzvah or seed of wisdom that comes your way,
grab it and squeeze all you can from it.

You make it seem that we are about to grasp for the final straw before sinking into a bottomless pit! We should have more confidence in ourselves and know that through ethical knowledge, wisdom, sensible behavior and sincere prayer that our troubles will be appreciated and will be kindly answered.

No, no David. We're talking about the last climb to reach the Era of Moshiach.

YES! Yaaaay - and I feel this - except .......at the top the mitzvos stop?? If anything, it seems there are more than ever, as everything becomes....a mitzvah or can be, b'ezras Hashem. So I still don't understand. What's final? What's the top? Is the end wedged in the beginning? Reply

in response to Leah:

Mitzvahs fix the world and bring the Age of Moshiach. Then, yes, we'll have a world of mitzvahs to do. But the ugliness and the darkness—that will be an era behind us. Reply

Mountain Climbing Our King of King of Kings, is a good G-d. May He give us peace and understanding for He will judge righteously. With kindness, and compassion. Those who are suffering should not fear. The poor will have their Sustenance, the orphan and the widow will not lack anything. B''H Reply
