VAYESHEV: Using Your Spiritual Eye | STUMP THE RABBI (223)

Did anyone ever tell you that you try too hard, or work too hard? In Parashat Vayeshev we find the holy Shvatim try as they may to put a stop to their brother Yosef's rise to greatness. But, as we'll learn in the following weeks, the Heavenly decree ruled differently.

This is very much like real life at times, where you try so hard to do something you believe is good, and yet the Divine decrees rules differently.

Today we will learn about Using Our Spiritual Eye to see things that are impossible to see for most. Though constant exercise is needed, the results are life-changing. Learn, Share, Enjoy and Be Holy.
