Tomorrow I will be getting my wisdom teeth pulled. Will I be losing some of my wisdom? I don’t know, but even if I do I can get it back.
How do I know? Simple. G-d made a Tabernacle in the spiritual worlds and yet tells the Jewish people to make a Tabernacle in the physical world as a home for Him to live in.
Many people think that G-d lives on a mountaintop and wants us to act perfectly. That is incorrect. What G-d wants is a home in an imperfect world. He yearns for a relationship with us. Knowing that he can make a flawless home and exclude us, He still chooses a house that is imperfect for us to perfect together.
The only prerequisite is to do your best.
Do your best to build the house and G-d will fill in the cracks.
The Midrash says that when Moses was lifting the heavy beams of the Tabernacle, he got tired. G-d told Moses to do his best and He will lift them with him.
Do your best to uplift and G-d will help you.
So if I lose wisdom, I just need to do my best to get it back and G-d will help.
Hope to SEE you at services (I probably won’t be able to talk much).
