G’ulah: Redemption

They went forth from Egypt on a single nightbut next time the miracle will be different.

Once two Sages were walking very early in the valleyand they saw the light of the morning star. Said oneto the other, “This is how the redemption will be.The dawn breaks with a single ray of light and bit bybit the sky is illumined, until morning comes and thedarkness is gone. So the redemption will occur littleby little, growing steadily and gradually until theworld is full of light.”

Do not wait for a miracle or the sudden transformationof the world. Bring the day closer, step by step, withevery act of courage, of kindness, of healing and repair.Do not be discouraged by the darkness. Lift up everyspark you can and watch the horizon for the coming ofdawn. Look closely! It has already begun.

T’filat HaLeiv: Prayer of the Heart

Communal prayer: Is it better to ask “Give us peace”with cries of woe, or to ask calmly, quietly?But if we ask calmly, God will thinkwe don’t really need peace and quiet.

— Yehuda Amichai

I, may I rest in peace — I, who am still living, say,May I have peace in the rest of my life.I want peace right now while I’m still alive.I don’t want to wait like that pious man who wished for one legof the golden chair of Paradise, I want a four-legged chairright here, a plain wooden chair. I want the rest of my peace now.I have lived out my life in wars of every kind: battles withoutand within, close combat, face-to-face, the faces alwaysmy own, my lover-face, my enemy-face.Wars with the old weapons — sticks and stones, blunt axe, words,dull ripping knife, love and hate,and wars with newfangled weapons — machine gun, missile,words, land mines exploding, love and hate.I don’t want to fulfill my parents’ prophecy that life is war.I want peace with all my body and all my soul.Rest me in peace.

— Yehuda Amichai

It came to pass that God testedAbraham. God said: “Take your son,whom you love, Isaac, to the land ofMoriah and offer him as a sacrifice onone of the mountains that I will showyou.” Abraham journeyed there, andon the third day he left his servantsand went with Isaac, taking only woodfor the sacrifice, a firestone, and aknife.

Kaddish Yatom: Mourner’s Kaddish

On this day, we prayed to God zochreinu, remember. Remember us and inscribe us once again for another year in the Book of Life.Now, we too are asked to zachor — remember— calling to mind all those people who filled the pages of our lives with joy and meaning who supported us, uplifted us and loved us. This is our moment of memory, as we prepare to recite kaddish yatom, our mourners’ prayer, each one of us calls to mind those whom we have loved and lost, those whom we miss on this and all special days. We close our eyes and picture their faces, recall their touch, their hug. Open our hearts with gratitude for all they gave to us.

PLEASE RISE
