Sha’ar HaBitachon - Episode 115
, -
~ !
Is about learning why applying Bitachon when involved in spiritual, moral and religious activities that directly involve others must necessarily be radically different!
Having concluded the delineate how we are to apply Bitachon regarding spiritual matters of our own concern, we now move on to Part Five: Mitzvah action (or inaction) whose performance (or lack thereof) directly impacts others!
Mitzvot, by definition are things we must choose to do. As such, relying on G-d (e.g., exhibiting Bitachon, rather is assuming personal responsibility) is simply wrongheaded. Trust can only be applied once we've already exhausted every possibility.
Yet when our performance of the Mitzvah will necessarily benefit or deprive someone else as well, the variables are significantly altered as we cannot take responsibility for someone else's choices.
May we just do our part, to the best of our ability, and then place unreserved Trust -- in essence relying on Hashem. Or must the intersection of different orbits force a faith distinction in the application of Trust and full reliance on Hashem?
In this Episode we will clarify why a novel approach towards the application of Trust in such matters is required, before we move on to spell out the actual strategy in part two.!
This is the forty-second study segment of the Fourth Chapter of "Shaar HaBitachon" and comprises the 115th consecutive video about Building Trust in G-d to Conquer Anxiety. Forever!
