Living Ein Od Milvado - Thanking Hashem When Things Look Bad #1982

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Travis’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Here in the Goysel and we're halfway point through in Elul. We're all thinking, what can we do to change Tafshin Pe Zayin? What can we do that we should be different people in Tafshin Pe Zayin? And I want to just give you an idea today. The Baal Mussar say that a person should always have a passuk on his lips. Should have his passuk which at all times serves him. While he's walking, while he's thinking, a passuk he really, really connect to. And the passuk I advise people ad hoc if they don't have anything else, is the Gemara in Chulin Daf Zayin Amud Beis says that if you're in danger at any point, you think the passuk Ata Re'eh Ladat. Ki Hashem Elokeim Ein Od Milvado. When a person thinks Ein Od Milvado, he's protected from everything. Every possible danger that could have hurt him, you're protected from That's Ata Re'eh Ladat. Ki Hashem Elokeim Ein Od Milvado. Now, the question is, what's that? We analyze this passuk, we'll see that Ata Re'eh Ladat is seemingly a contradictory statement, phrase. Because you see with your eyes, but you think with your mind. So, what does it mean Ata Re'eh Ladat? Hashem Elokeim we can understand. Hashem is Rachamim, Elokeim is Din. Rachamim and Din is the same thing. Ein Od Milvado, that's also difficult. What does it mean there's nothing else except for God? So, the beginning and the end of this statement is very, very difficult. If you want to make this our catch phrase, but tough pain Zion, but how First we have to understand what we're saying. I believe we could suggest as follows.
