Sha’ar HaBitachon - Episode Fourteen
~ !
In previous Episodes, we clarified the folly of relying on wisdom or talent to avoid anxiety over the future because neither ensures success, which comes solely from G-d's blessings.
Now we address the notion that money should not be relied upon either. Although wealth can buy many things, due to its transitory nature the one thing it can never purchase is certainty or security. Ultimately, real inner peace can only be achieved through trusting in the only true source of goodness -- Al-mighty G-d Himself.
