| When Klal Yisrael were enslaved in Egypt, they realized that they were powerless to overthrow Pharaoh's decree. In response to their situation, Klal Yisrael instituted an innovative solution. They made a "covenant of kindness "with each other. Meaning, they made a commitment to do everything in their power to actively help and support each other . They knew that their uncommon kindness to each other, would awaken Hashem's kindness to them. Indeed, the merit of their extraordinary kindness to each other, awakened the miraculous Exodus from Egypt.
This Tisha B'Av there is something very powerful that we can do to advance the Geulah. Our holy Sages teach us, that the way we treat each other reflects on how HaShem treats us. Therefore, the more we love, honor, and act with kindness to each other, the more HaShem will awaken His love, honor, and kindness for Klal Yisrael and quickly bring the Geulah!
Envision the warmth, compassion, and love that pulsated in the heart of Avraham Avinu for every person. Transpose his joy, goodness, and care for his fellow man to your heart. Do your best to open your heart to love and bestow kindness on every person. Visualize our love and unity awakening HaShem's unconditional love for Klal Yisrael and bring the Geulah! (Based on Tana D'vei Eliyahy and the commentary of the Chofetz Chaim and Rav Matisiyhu Salomon)
