Even in a recession there’s still a blessing

Before I begin, I’d like to acknowledge and give glory to the king of kings the almighty Lord of lords, G-d of Israel. You guys might remember me from my post two months ago titled ” HaShem saved my life with Torah” where I accounted a personal act of miracle HaShem performed for me, well given our current predicament of the world, one can only hope to the one supreme authority who is the sole sovereign of the world, it is HE who has the power to solve any problem that exists. In the Torah it is written: He said, “Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there; the LORD has given, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.” says the prophet JOB who wasn’t even Jewish by the way. The past few months have been hard but what remains is the truth that the almighty G-D is the one and only and it is he who shall remain for eternity. He can lift any inconvenience at an instant and that is what we should all remember, that nothing is difficult for him. I remember a few months prior to Corona, i was extremely fed up with my job and I found myself in a predicament where it felt as if I had no choice but to be confined to a job for mere sustenance, during my 30 minute daily lunch breaks, I would break out my Sefaria Torah app and learn in that short span and when the clock hit 1pm I thought to HaShem in my mind, if only there was a way to just learn Torah and not have to work this miserable job and never would I thought in a million years that HaShem would shake the world in a way that would make that very thing possible. I happen to be in an under paying job according to my educational level, every minute of it felt like misery however, with the current situation, I have a job that requires zero work while maintaining the exact same page ( not unemployment benefits ) since my job is funded by the government and its nature is not essential yet the government pays for it. I think back to a few months ago when I was unhappy, in retrospect I realized that all the worrying and sense of anxiety was in vain since all the worrying I did never changed the outcome of anything, the way the world work is what will be will be and trust in HaShem is the only that never fails. NO matter how dim life appears, always remember it is our father who is in charge of it all. EIN Oi MilVado. Thank you HaShem for granting me everything and making me lack nothing. I leave you all with the words of king Solomon: Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. 2 It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep.

3 Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. 4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children[a] of one’s youth. 5 Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.
