Daily Dose of Emuna  By Rebbetzin Orit Esther Riter Tehillim 42 ... I Have Yet BS'D   In perek 42 of Tehillim, a vivid image of a lonely man who lives with emuna is portrayed. His soul thirsts for Hashem.  Although he is steeped in difficulty he still desires to continuously cling to his steadfast trust in Hashem's compassion. Dovid HaMelech ztk'l describes his feeling of abandonment, "… when will I come and appear before Hashem?" (passuk 3).  He describes in verse 5 the joyful memories when the Klal elatedly went up to the Temple and could readily feel Hashem's presence. However, he now experiences such intense distance, cast as it were into an emotional exile.  His anguish is so vividly felt.  Nevertheless, he doesn't abandon his emuna. This lesson can easily be applied to many of us who endure hardships since we too can empathize with such emotions, the sense of feeling fragile, alone and confused, even abandoned c"v by Hashem. In verse 8, water is illustrated as a destructive force far different than initially described in the beginning of this chapter as a source of nourishment for the deer.    Here, the water sweeps over Dovid HaMelech and causes him to be lost.  His inner voice as if yells out, "Where are you Hashem?  I am frightened and need you." Yet at the end of this perek, Dovid HaMelech regains his strength and states confidently … "I will yet praise Him."  This hints to us the best possible response to distressful events in our lives.  We must pour our hearts out in honesty, without reservation and not deny our pain, although at the same time not question Hashem's master plan. Rather, just as Dovid allows himself to experience human pain and suffering, he also broadcasts confidently that he does not give up hope.  Why?  "…. Ki od (yet)" there is a future that has yet to be openly revealed.  The exile will end and all be clear.  "I will yet praise Him", meaning in spite of my current pain, weakness and overwhelming sadness of present-day, I am assured that all is good and I will merit seeing it, B'H, b'rachamim, b'karov, Amen! Your Daily Meditation from Orit Esther The beautiful message in chapter 42 of Tehillim is that Dovid HaMelech allows himeself to experience the gamut of human pain. Yet at the same time he declares with emuna shleimah, "I will yet praise Him". Today, take a challenging situation and say the words, "I will yet praise Him". Maybe now you cannot imagine how this is possible, but B'H you will merit to seeing the good of it... in Hashem's time!   Sincerely, Orit Esther Riter Founder of the Daily Dose of Emuna OrEmunaEnergy.com Author of Turnaround Your Emotions Series   ORDER HERE Partner With Me Donate towards maintaining the overhead of the Daily Dose of Emuna and sponsor more free learning programs, publish more books, and free Emuna mentoring to those who need it.
