Indwelling of Strength, Day 14 Omer 5782
Today is the fourteenth day, which is two weeks, of the Omer in the year 5782. שכינה שבגבורה, Shekhinah ShebeGevurah, Indwelling of Strength.
You are my Rock
כִּי־סַלְעִי וּמְצוּדָתִי אָתָּה וּלְמַעַן שִׁמְךָ תַּנְחֵנִי וּתְנַהֲלֵנִי׃
For you are my crag and my bastion, and for Your name's sake guide me and lead me. (Robert Alter translation, Psalm 31:4).
This right here is the reason I am a Jewish spiritual leader. Allowing God to guide me and lead me. My hope is to open gateways to God. The path of righteousness, the path of justice, the path of truth: they are all the same path and the are all guided by HaShem.
May we all have time this Shabbat to sink into the Strength within us and the Rock Who guides us.
