Strengthening Faith
As your faith is strengthened you will find that there is no longer the need to have a sense of control, that things will flow as they will, and that you will flow with them, to your great delight and benefit.
Emmanuel Teney
Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.
Henry Ward Beecher
Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.

The first and most important of the 613 Mitzvos is belief in G-d. People think that this mitzva is like Kiddush - you do it and you are yotzei. Finished! "I believe, there is nothing else to talk about! Let's move on to other things."
VBM!
NO - VVBM!!
VERY VERY BIG MISTAKE!
We must constantly learn about Hashem and deepen our faith in Him. Just as He is beyond infinite, so too learning about Him is a never ending [and constantly rewarding!] process.
For that we have BOOKS. Sefarim kedoshim. Examples: Tanach with commentaries, Agadata and medrashim with commentaries, Moreh Nevichim, Kuzari, Maharal, Rav Kook, Michtav M'eliyahu to name just a few.
Time is running out beloved friends - we must get moving!!
Side benefit - believing is much cheaper than a psychologist. And more effective!
Love and blessings!!!
PS - Mazel Tov to my good friend R' Yitzi Jacob and his Mrs. on the birth of their holy son!!
