Our lives are a reflection of the lives of our Avot and Imahot. This week’s parsha Toldot discusses the difficulty of Rivka Imeinu in conceiving. It is written in the Gemara Tanchuma, “Hashem desires to hear the prayers of the righteous.”
Rationale tells us that it cannot be – how is it that Hashem ‘yearns’ for us to cry out in Tefillah, out of pain and suffering? Yet, when delving further into the words of our holy Sages we come to learn that Hashem ‘longs’ for the greatness and wholesomeness of the righteous which comes as a result of their heartfelt prayers.
Our perception of life is distorted. Our belief is that Hashem loves us only if we are gifted with all that we need. But our needs are not necessarily beneficial for us in the long term. Here is the time once again to reiterate that our vision is limited. We are finite beings and can only see the here of this world. As parents we know that the future is always at the forefront when we guide and care for our children. We are always relating the impact of what we are doing today to the effect it will have on tomorrow.
Hashem ‘knows’ that we are here on a mission; to partner with our Creator and strive to reveal perfection and G-dliness in everything. He ‘knows’ that we do not want to leave this world the same way we entered, but in an elevated more perfected state. The challenges of life bring us to look for Hashem and bond with the Only One who is truly able to help; shower us with compassion and embrace us with strength.
Thus it is this place that Hashem awaits us to arrive; to the recognition of Ein od Milvado, there is No One Else But Hashem!! That is perfection. That is wholeness. That is the pathway to righteousness. That is the road every Jew must travel. Please Hashem may it be b’rachamim, Amen.
