The Significance of a Special Place to Pray
Our holy sages reveal that Avraham Avinu designated a special place for himself to pray. Whenever he prayed, he returned to that location. Every person who follows Avraham's path and designates a special place for prayer, will receive abundant blessings and wonderful merits! His prayers will be answered and HaShem will help him in the same amazing way that He helped Avraham Avinu! `
Lesson: When a person designates a special location to pray, that place becomes enriched with holiness, compassion, and increased awareness of HaShem. Therefore, his prayers ascend to Heaven, and find favor and grace in the eyes of HaShem.
Visualization: Envision Avraham Avinu standing in his special place of prayer. Sense holiness, awe. and joy fill his heart and soul, as he begins to pray. Reflect on this visualization when you stand in your designated place of prayer. Have faith and trust that your prayers will be pleasing to HaShem, and be confident that He will help you, in the same amazing and miraculous ways that he helped Avraham Avinu!
