SF - King David's Praise of HaShem

"A praise of David: I will praise my G-d, the King, and I will bless Your Name forever and ever." (Tehillim 145) All of the creations are in absolute need of their daily sustenance for their survival. The Ashrei Psalm contains the secrets of Divine blessings and abundance. Even more, the Psalm reveals the infinite dimensions of Divine compassion and kindness. Whoever recites this beautiful Psalm with thoughtfulness and heartfelt sincerity will never lack his sustenance. It is the only Psalm that begins with the words -- "A praise" -- because there is no greater good in this world than the constant flow of HaShem's life-giving blessings of abundant sustenance.

It is fitting and pleasant to praise HaShem, the "Source of All Good," Who provides sustenance for all of His creations, with kindness and compassion.

Envision the Mannah which materialized for every member of Klal Yisrael each morning in the barren desert. See that there is a sufficient supply for the millions of members of Klal Yisrael. Imagine yourself gathering the Mannah for your entire family, with very little effort. Reflect on HaShem's kindness and compassion in sending your "daily bread." Be inspired and praise HaShem with a joyful heart!
