That’s one of the fundamental purposes of visiting the Shabbos Sanctuary – in order to acquire the attitude of the mind that Hakadosh Baruch Hu is in charge. He is guiding every man’s fate, steering the steering wheel of history – the history of the world and the individual.
Shabbos means that nothing is done unless Hakadosh Baruch Hu wants it. So what are we worried about? You mean to say that He’s not going to handle it properly? The Chafetz Chesed, the One Who desires kindliness and He has full power to carry it out, do you mean to say He’s going to allow it to turn out other than good?
Now, it doesn’t mean what we think is good. Many times if we were asked to write a prescription for ourselves, if the pharmacist would say, “Come in. Take whatever you want!” you wouldn’t walk out alive. It’s only when you’re told what to take.
And so, Hakadosh Baruch Hu knows what to give us. He knows best and He’s capable and He’s doing it. He’s driving the car, so how can a man have any anxieties?
