I S S U E 845 Lech Lecha / November 7, 2024 / Cheshvan 6, 5785 Dear Friend, An insight by the Rebbe on the parshat Lech Lecha, selected from our Daily Wisdom, by Rabbi Moshe Wisnefsky. When You Encounter Delays Or Take A Wrong Turn Abraham continued on HIS travels, from the south toward Bethel, until the place where he originally had his tent, between Bethel and Ai. (Gen. 13:3) The words "his travels" in this verse can also be understood to mean "His travels," i.e., G-d's travels, meaning the travels orchestrated by G-d. It was G-d's plan that Abram travel to these particular places. Similarly, G-d determines where each of us finds ourselves at any given moment; if we are unexpectedly delayed, or think that we have taken a "wrong" turn, we should remember that it is all part of G-d's unalterable plan. It is our free choice to decide whether to fall into the trap of being frustrated over how our plans went awry or to capitalize on the Divine providence and take the opportunity to fulfill our Divine mission in the precise time and place where G-d has led us. --Daily Wisdom Volume 3 May G-d grant resounding victory and peace in the Holy Land.
