Reply To: Do you think about H-shem?

Wolf-“I’d even be lying if I said that I thought about HKBH 100% of the time I’m involved in limmud Torah.”

Sadly I have the same issue-not only by learning but ironically even by davening. So what do you propose to rectify this?

gefen-“but i think now i will make more of an effort.”

Any suggestion?

2qwerty- “Or in the middle of the day you just start asking Hashem for help, in your own words just talking to Hashem.”

That’s a beautiful post-thank you! I am convinced that you are a R’ Avigdor Miller fan (as am I) But this line in particular helps me tremendously (when I remind myself to do it-which is not often enough) R’ AM says that before you do anything-even small daily chores,i.e if you need to go to the grocery store, you should ask Hashem to get you there safely, and when you arrive, thank Hashem for it. Often when I do this I feel overwhelmed with warmth and love for Hashem. I feel connected, watched over, taken care of by the all powerful loving creator. It is amazing, and when I am in the mode of doing it, I can do it all day long(and be mekayim “tumid” to some degree), and I feel great. It is not a burden( to answer my own question) it is liberating. However I don’t do it often enough and it does not always work.

You must live in BP-in which case I would make a shehecheyanu:)

mamashtakah- “BSD, may I ask why you wrote H-shem instead of Hashem?”

IDK-I suppose I must have seen it that way. Also people write G-d though there may be a difference. Either way, I did teshuvah as you can see from this post:)
