morgan stern and we began the section on vegas how do we cling to god how do we stick with god no matter the circumstances no matter the challenge no matter what we're going through how do we ensure that god is by our side that we don't fail to remember that he's there that we don't forget that he's part of our life how do we make sure to remember that in fact he is responsible that in fact he is guiding everything that is happening how do we achieve that divacus to cling the root of the word vacus is devek is glue how do we glue ourselves to god how do we stick with him in all circumstances we stick with him in all circumstances and at all times how do we cling to and stick with god always so we read the introduction last time that spoke about vegas clinging to god as a fundamental principle as a driving force in our lives it's animating everything all the mitzvos that we do all the commandments that we fulfill it's all there as a platform to remember that we're not alone that we shouldn't inflate with arrogance to think that we are responsible for our success and nor should we panic or be overly anxious with fear to think
