…and everything depends on the majority of good deeds
Up to now, we have only explained how a person comes to the first two levels of conditional love, but we have yet to investigate how a person can come to relate to the Creator according to the two levels of unconditional love. In order to reach clarity on this issue, we must first study the following Talmudic passage:
“The Tanna said, ‘A man should always consider himself as if he is half liable and half meritorious. If he does one mitzvah, he should be happy that he titled the balance to the side of merit. If he does one sin, woe to him that he tilted the balance to the side of liability. As Scripture reads, “One sinner can destroy much” (Eccles. 9:18).’

The power of positive thinking: When we prepare for war, as described in this week’s parasha, or for any challenge in life, are we focused on the task before us? Are we transmitting positivity? The spiritual force field that we create around ourselves will effect our ability, and the abilities of others around us, to attain our goals.

Light to the Nations – with Rabbi Chaim Richman
Weekly series with new teachings available every Thursday.
Next week on Light to the Nations:
Palm of Deborah, Part III
G-d gives us life, and animates our very souls, and yet, when we rebel against Him by straying from the path and the harmony that He has set out for the entire world, He, in His long-suffering patience, bears our affront and continues to bless us with His great benevolence. It is incumbent upon each of us to emulate this G-dly attribute, and show great patience and forbearance toward others.

G-d commands us not to be overwhelmed by our own mortality; not to diminish our physical selves in the realization of our own finiteness, but to find strength and comfort in His eternal embrace: “You are children of the L-rd, your G-d.” (Deut. 14:1)
