Investments Marriage & Wealth
Investors are motivated by investing and then receiving a larger profit. There is no art of investing a million dollars only to receive back the same million dollars. The pain is motivated by the gain.
In Lekutei Torah -Shlach- the Alter Rebbe explains why we exist and why did G-d invest in Creation. The answer is because G-d is looking for the greater return on His investment. When a person always has light then we don’t always appreciate it. But when a person lives in darkness and then there is light, the person celebrates the light and enjoys it much more.
Our world was created in order that we should transform the spiritual darkness of the world into
a brightly lit home for the Creator. A brightly lit decorated and furnished home where He is welcomed and comfortable.
The more we struggle against the darkness of the world and we transform it to light by living a Torah lifestyle, the more joy and appreciation G-d has on His investing Divine energy into a dark world. As King Solomon says in Koehler “I have seen the advantage of light over darkness” וראיתי… יתרון האור מן החושך.
This gives us motivation and inspiration:
If we sometimes struggle against dark forces we should know that this is a great achievement and a gift to our Father In Heaven. We are transforming darkness into light. No battle against darkness is in vein. This is where the great return on His investment of Creation. This is the very purpose of Creation.
For over 3300 years the Jewish people have been battling darkness. The Rebbe publicly stated many times that we are now on the threshold of Redemption when we will see with our physical eyes the darkness disappear and vanish. The beautiful Moshiach light of goodness and kindness, Divine knowledge, a life of joy, sweetness and celebration will shine forever.
Your victory over darkness is an eternal gift!
3 messages based on the teachings of the Rebbe:
1) Education a child is of the highest priority. A child is naturally born with selfish desires. We must educate each child with love and teach them by example how to live a Torah life filled with morality, goodness and kindness. A child needs to be taught that there is a Creator and there is an Eye that sees and an Ear that hears. Everything is recorded. Every good effort is awarded.
2) Marriage is the harmony between husband and wife. A spouse is not a student. It is not the job of one spouse to teach the other. Marriage requires a Bond where each spouse wants the other to actualize their life dream. Focus on giving your spouse the delight and pleasure of true joy and happiness, and you will receive all the joy and happiness you desire.
3) There are now special blessings and opportunities for wealth and riches. To use money for good things. G-d is blessing us now with the ability to have everything in abundance. Make the proper effort and you will receive the blessing. Share your money with the poor and be a partner in good causes. This will bring you more blessings for wealth. A life of joy, meaning and success.
