Light Can Only Come From Darkness Never Give Up

Bitachon Weekly | December 10, 2025

I know a certain Goy who was heavily addicted to alcohol for many years. One day, he said to Hashem: “I can’t stand up against my addiction. Only You can help me”. Within a day or two, he met someone who saved him completely. So don’t be Mya'esh if you feel lacking in Koach & Gevura in your Milchemes HaYetzer. Maybe Davka you will be Matzliach, since you are so hopeless without Hashem helping you.

The Slonimer Chasidim say that when the doctors are all Mya'esh, this is when the Yeshua comes. The Gemara says that the darker the cloud, the more rain. The same with light: ֵל ְנ תיהוֹ ָרא ֶא ָל ְד א ָנ ִפ ִמ קי וֹג ַחשׁוֹ ָכ א זוהר פ' תצוה קפד א light can only come out of darkness, and the darker it is, the more the light is seen.

The more you’ve been waiting for a Yeshua without any signs of Yeshua, the more you can Davka be sure of a real Yeshua, since you have zero support or encouragement; just Hashem [who becomes Davka more involved]! From the lowest Madregos can Davka come the highest forms of greatness.

Like in Mitzrayim where they sank into the 49th level of Tum'ah; the lowest! And Davka then the Yeshua came. Every Yachid has the option of actually believing this, and the more he works on believing, the more he can expect great miracles! [Like the sudden miracle of K'riyas Yam Suf!].

They say that R' Gershon Liebman Zatzal never, ever, gave up, despite his tremendous issues. Novardokers quote the Kotzker Rebbe Zatzal who famously said: ִיאוּ שׁ ֶשׁ ֹל ִמ א ַד ַﬠ ת If you give up [and have Yi'ush] then you are not using your Daas. There is natural Sechel, and the true Sechel, where you believe that Hashem can do anything.
