Living the Parsha Bereishis

Bilvavi | December 08, 2025

“IN THE BEGINNING, G-D CREATED...” (BEREISHIS 1:1)

He Renews the Act of Creation Every Day in His Goodness

Every morning, when a person says “that You have mercifully restored my soul within me,” he should contemplate that he is receiving new life from the Blessed Creator — as it says, “He renews in His goodness every day continually the act of Creation.”

Therefore, each day one should renew at least one thing in Torah — either by creating an insight of his own or by learning something new. Through this, he connects to “He renews each day the act of Creation.”

Practical Application

Each morning, feel — even for a brief moment — that you are a new creation.

The Coming of Mashiach – “I Await Him Every Day That He May Come.”

When one says, “I believe with complete faith in the coming of Mashiach, and even though he may delay, I await him every day that he may come,” — the more a person truly believes and anticipates “that he may come every day,” especially today, the more he draws vitality from the light of the future — the light of the coming redemption, of which it is said, “A new Torah will come forth from Me.”

He thereby connects himself to the Torah of Oneness, which is the very light of redemption — the inner light of the Torah revealed in the time of Geulah.

Practical Application

Each morning, feel — even for a brief moment — that you truly believe and anticipate the coming of Mashiach today — an expectation of complete renewal.
