What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Living with Emunah - Rabbi Efrem Goldberg’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

called Morganstern a phenomenal safer and we've been studying the chapter onus the message of clinging to God gluing ourselves to God attaching ourselves to God putting our destiny in the hands of God and the more that we let go and let God the more that we realize we're not in control and we're not in charge in fact by forfeiting our control sub mitting and surrendering it's not that we become more unhappy we find greater happiness that doesn't mean that we don't take responsibility we take extreme ownership of Our Lives it doesn't mean we sit on the couch and expect the livelihood to flow in from Heaven it doesn't mean that we don't go to the doctor but miraculously expect to get better we have to take our initiative we have to do what we need to do but after we've done it we see the place of Hashem we relate to we submit we surrender that he is in charge that he is in control I posted yesterday there was a map by The Weather Service of the tropical storm that hit us the other day that's now formed into a hurricane and apparently is coming back to Florida North of us but we of course pray for everyone to be healthy and well and uh if you looked at that map the spaghetti map the strings basically they were going in every single possible Direction they might as well have put out a message that says we know nothing we can predict nothing we know nothing we're useless we're worthless and we just we give up we hereby retire here's our resignation thank than you for having us and I don't mean to rank on meteorologists or weather people they're doing the best that they can but between the pollsters who got it all wrong with the election and the weather people
