It's unbelievable how Hashem exists 24-7 in our lives. Hashem is really here, and we have the zechut, we have the opportunity, to serve Him daily. Not only once a week. Sometimes a person goes on vacation, which is a lot of fun. You go once a year, twice a year, three times a year. And even if you go, you can't stay in the hotel for so long, and you can't rent a nice car for so long. And how long can you eat steak in a restaurant, even if it's $300? Everything has a limit. But to serve Hashem, which is the funnest thing and the most valuable thing, we have a zechut to do it every single moment while we're alive. The funnest thing is happening 24-7: to serve a Kadosh Baruch Hu. What an honor it is to be a Jew and to be able to serve Hashem. The greatest gift Hashem gave us is that He gave us a Jewish neshama, a Jewish soul, in order to serve Him 24-7. And then He gave us mitzvot (commandments); He gave us tremendous opportunities to get close to Him in this world: Torah, Shabbat, tefillin (phylacteries), prayer, keeping kosher (ritually permitted). And then we build our Olam Haba (next world), as enjoyable as this world is.
You know the Gemara. It tells us, “Take all the most...” Remind me to go back to the second story, please, before I forget, if you don't mind. Take all the enjoyments in this world. All the enjoyments in this world, put them into one moment. Rega echad (one moment). It is still not worth the enjoyment in the next world, in Olam Haba. If the Kadosh Baruch Hu created all the fun stuff in the world, He is telling us, “Trust me, the next world is even fun, even more enjoyable.” You can trust Hashem when He says it.
