0:00 - Shalom, Rav. - Were you with us at the netz, the sunrise prayer? - Yes. Ah, yes, you were here? The whole team? - Yes. Where are you going now? - Studies, work... - Yes, to do good... to do valiantly, to shine the light. Well done to you, fortunate are you. May we have a share of the merit with you in what you do. All the good you do - saving Jews, saving the Jewish people - may Hashem guard you, protect you.
0:24 Act carefully, with open eyes, patience, to be in joy, to be calm. Most important, you know, it is written: 'And you will be lost quickly from the good land which...' The holy Baal Shem Tov says a very beautiful thing: 'Va'avadetem meheirah.' What does it mean? 'Va'avadetem' - lose the trait of haste. A person should not rush all the time, become pressured like this all the time. Lose the trait of haste - a settled mind, Be calm. Also sometimes - I know this work is stressful, because you know, suddenly you get a phone call and it tells you: go here, go here.
0:55 And then a person rushes, and sometimes the panic and the haste can make mistakes. So always - now you have received a rule: go right away, but be settled. Always say to yourselves: I am settled, going out on a mission. That is to say, because your lives are important too. That you not lose the trait of haste, keep the trait of haste... Do you know what it means? 'Va'avadetem meheirah.' Lose the haste. That you should not have haste.
1:19 Have alacrity, but not haste. This is something beautiful that he said. Because you do valiant work, and you get a phone call, a call to some place, you go out in haste - so carefully; may Hashem guard you, Amen. May you have protection and safeguarding, and always a settled mind. I was happy that you prayed with me today at the netz - you merited. May you have protection and safeguarding and alertness. I will pray for you... I will read, I will pray, with Hashem's help. Rabbi Sharon, chazak chazak, good news, a good day.
1:47 I was happy to see you. May Hashem guard you. 'Blessed are you to Hashem, Maker of heaven and earth.' Chazak chazak. To be only in joy always. May Hashem guard you, chazak chazak.
