Erev Shabbos message

I was cooking for Shabbos tonight and Hashem helped me think of an amazing Moshel. When you make an amazing cake, or the best Chulent, whatever it is, you need the right about of ingredients. If you need oil, you cant subsitute it with salt, it needs to be oil. Every single yid in Klal Yisrael is a special unique ingredient. We need every single one of those ingredients to come together to be the best we can possibly be as a nation. We need to come TOGETHER instead of staying separate. What is a cake without oil, sugar and eggs? We need EVERY SINGLE PERSON! Only YOU have that ingredient that we need to be strong.

We can also apply this to ourselves. We have within us different abilities and kochos that make us who we are. Some are bitter and some are sweet, but that is what Hashem gave us… its what we need. We need to learn how to bring TOGETHER all of them in order to be the best we can possibly be. To be the best YOU! Find your good qualities and the negative ones, be aware and don’t shy away from them. If your a good speaker, speak. If your a good writer, write. If your a musician, use it to uplift people. Use your abilities in a way that will give Hashem nachas. Refine them, combine them together, strengthen them, and you’ll fulfill your potential in life!

Good Shabbos everyone!
