Let’s Get Practical: Living With Gratitude in the Mikdash Me’at

Let’s Get Practical

Living With Gratitude in the Mikdash Me’at

This week, I will, bli neder, put into practice the teaching that the entire Mishkan and Beis Haknesses exist for one purpose — to thank Hashem. Before I walk into shul each day, I will prepare one specific thing to thank Hakadosh Baruch Hu for. It can be something from today — my eyesight, my ability to walk, my parnassah — or something from long ago that I had forgotten, just as Dovid HaMelech warns, “יוָלּמו¿ּ‚ לָכ יƒח¿ּכ¿ׁ ̆ƒּ ̇ לַ‡.”

By practicing a small amount of planned gratitude each time I enter the Mikdash Me’at, I will train myself to live the life the Mishkan teaches — a life of constant awareness of the nissei nissim that fill every moment.

This week’s booklet is based on tapes: 550 - It is Good to Sing | 769 - Lamp of Free Will | 780 - Hodu: A Program for Life | 826 - House of Thanksgiving | E-258 - Opposed by the Nations
