The Power of Spiritual Vibrancy \ Purim Insight
D'var Torah: Haman knew that from the ancient days of our Patriarchs, HaShem revealed His powerful love for Klal Yisrael, His favored and chosen nation. What's more, the great miracles of the Exodus clearly demonstrated to all mankind HaShem's unique connection and commitment to His treasured B'nei Yisrael. Haman also took note of the destruction of the Temple. He assumed this signaled that Klal Yisrael had lost favor in HaShem's eyes, and were vulnerable to attack. In this vein, he planned his evil scheme to annihilate the Jews, Chas V'Shalom. However, Haman made a false assumption, as proven by the following incident. Mordecai, the esteemed leader of Klal Yisrael, met a group of children coming out of Cheder. Each child told him a special Torah insight that he had learned that day. Mordecai rejoiced saying, "Klal Yisrael is spiritually vibrant. Therefore, Haman's plan has no chance of success!"
Moral: We don't have to be the greatest tzadik or tzadekes to be worthy in the eyes of HaShem. As long as we are spiritually vibrant and perform the Mitzvot with dedication and enthusiasm, we can rely on HaShem's blessing, protection, and redemption. Application: Learn Torah with joy and perform the Mitzvot with enthusiasm and vibrancy -- and strengthen the wellspring of blessings, redemption, and miracles that HaShem continuously showers upon Klal Yisrael.
