SF - The Secret of Finding Relief \ Parashat Vayigash

The Secret of Finding Relief \ Parashat Vayigash

D'var Torah: Our Sages reveal that a "spark of HaShem" is embedded in every manner of hardship that man endures. This means that HaShem feels the pain that every person experiences. When a person attains the awareness that HaShem knows of his distress, the pain is neutralized. For instance, Yoseph's threat to enslave Binyamin caused unbearable pain to Yehudah. How did Yehudah deal with such agony? Yehudah praised HaShem for empathizing with him and being sensitive to his pain. Yehudah's awareness of HaShem's compassionate care for him caused Yehudah's pain to be alleviated. 

Moral:  The consciousness that HaShem feels our pain brings about the release of suffering.  

Application: Reflect on the knowledge that HaShem feels your pain, just as a parent mercifully feels the pain of his or her child. Thank HaShem for caring about you and mercifully feeling your pain. Experience the joy of being released from your troubles.
