Friday night--the quiet Sabbath night which leads into the Sabbath day has settled over Israel.
Shabbat shalom to you all, Sabbath peace.
From the wisdom of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory; words and condensation by Tzvi Freeman:
Ways of Peace
-------------
Our mission in life is not to shake up the world but to fasten its pegs. Not to climb to the heavens and holler and roar, but to walk softly on the ground. Not to create a storm but rather a dwelling, an earthly home for the essence of G-d.
If a storm is needed, so it shall be. As for us, we will continue on our path, the path of Torah, solidly planted on the earth. A path of pleasantness and peace, bringing order to chaos step by step, until all the boundlessness of the Infinite Light is arranged firmly in our world.
may peace be with us all

ReplyDeleteDina, "Louis" had to stop by for two reasons - one to look at and read once again this post - it is, in his opinion, one of the best you've done.
ReplyDeleteThe other reason is to thank you for your visits and comments. In our wedding at the church, we also celebrated the Eucharist. For the Eucharistic prayer, we used one based on the ancient Kiddush prayer.

A perfect photo and a perfect post. Thank you for spreading the word, Dina.
