The Joy of Love
There is no greater joy, than the joy of being loved. The joy is especially intensified the more we are aware that HaShem, the kind and compassionate Creator, loves us with His infinite love. Indeed, HaShem loves Klal Yisrael -- individually and collectively -- with the endless and powerful love of a loving and merciful Father, as the Torah reveals: "You are children to HaShem, your G-d."
Lesson: Just as a loving father rejoices with the good fortune of his child and empathizes with his hardships, so too, HaShem, our loving Father, rejoices with us in our good times and empathizes with our struggles.
App: Emulate HaShem by opening your heart to love and care for each member of Klal Yisrael. Empathize with them in their hardships and rejoice with them in their happy occasions.
