D'var Torah: "The oneness of the Infinite One, may He be blessed, is that His Will, alone exists. There is no other will other than His. Therefore, He alone rules over everything and not any other will. The structure of Creation is built on this foundation." The Oneness of HaShem is that He is the supreme and only Will. Although the lion attacks its prey, and nations triumph over their foes, these outcomes are determined solely by the Divine Will. Indeed, everything in the universe -- from the angels above, to the birth of a baby upon the earth -- are in HaShem's absolute control.
Moral: It is futile to trust in any force other than HaShem, for the Divine Will, alone, rules over the entire universe.
Application: Review this fundamental principle: "The oneness of the Infinite One, may He be blessed, is that His Will, alone exists. There is no other will other than His. Therefore, He alone rules over everything and not any other will. The structure of Creation is built on this foundation." Repeat it aloud to yourself so that the words integrate into your heart. Internalize the concept that every force other than HaShem is an illusion. Place your trust in the Infinite One, for His Will, alone, is Supreme.
