Welcome to the daily chizuk (encouragement). If a person needs a yeshu'ah (salvation), the Rabbeinu Yonah writes in Shaarei Teshuva, “Tihyeh yeshu'at Hashem b'libo.” He has to feel the salvation of Hashem in his heart. Think about what it's going to be like after the yeshu'ah comes. Experience the joy of salvation. And then say, “Hashem, I know only you could give it to me.” If you manage to take the worry out of your heart and feel confident in the mercy of Hashem, then “Haboteach baHashem chesed (mercy) yesovevenu.” And the Kav Hayashar says that at that moment you will be surrounded by angels of chesed.
David HaMelech said, “When he had these thoughts of Hashem's mercy and was confident in the mercy of Hashem, his heart became filled with joy.” Mordechai was so confident in the yeshu'ah. He told Ester, “If you don't go to the king, but we will for sure be saved.” And Ester got the message. The Chatam Sofer said, “Why did Ester have that little party with Haman?” He says she became so certain in the yeshu'at Hashem that she was already celebrating the yeshu'ah with the cause of the problem right in front of her. The Pasuk (verse) says in Tehillim, “First you have to have the voice of rinah.” First you have to have the voice of song and celebration. And then comes yeshu'ah.
We know Sarah Imeinu was barren for many years. And the Pasuk says... And the Midrash (rabbinic teaching) says, “She didn't even have a womb.” She was 90 years old. Her husband is 100. They must have been praying for years with no results. She was ready to give up. But the Midrash says, “How could I give up hope in my creator?” Rather, she said, “I feel confident. I rejoice in the salvation of Hashem.” And she started to be happy with the knowledge that Hashem could do anything. And the Midrash ends by saying, “Hashem said, ‘You didn't give up hope, so I didn't give up hope.’” And immediately, the salvation is in our hands. Let us feel the yeshu'ah before it comes. Have a great day.
