inspired how we're only truly living if we're living with amuna if we're living a self-centered entric life if we're living a life in which we've edged God out our ego is inflated then we're not alive even we're dead even while we're alive we're dead even while we're alive how do we find life meaning purpose how do we find resiliency endurance how do we find the will to go on in life it's it's by embracing a life of Faith a life of Courage a life of trust a life of amuna so we're going to go right into of amuna so we're going to go right into the text because we usually don't and then we only end up reading one line each week so we'll start with the text and see where we go we're on page I on the bottom this is and the title of the piece that we are in the middle of is called attaching ourselves to God and therefore finding Joy when one is living a whole sense of amuna right till now we've been talking about the measure the metric one can use to determine how our amuna is is our anger if we're quick to anger if we lose our cool if we get bent out of shape if we become exacerbated out of shape if we become exacerbated frustrated when uh when things don't go our way then we think that we're in control and it's all about us and if we find the capacity for patience and for flexibility and for forbearance and for every other word that starts with an F then it means that our amuna is fantastic because we realize we're not in charge we're not in control runs the world life does not always go so
