Dear Friend,
We are pleased to share insights by the Rebbe on parshat Va'etchanan, selected from our Daily Wisdom, edited by Rabbi Moshe Wisnefsky.
❦ Alacrity ❦
You shall observe the commandments, rules, and ordinances that I command you to do today. (Deut. 7:11)
One of the hallmarks of spiritual maturity is valuing every opportunity to do good. Each of us has much spiritual work to do in order to bring the world – both the world in general and our own, private world – to its ultimate perfection. This being the case, we should be overcome with eagerness to accomplish whatever we can at the earliest opportunity (“today”) in order to reach the goal of perfecting the world.
Thus, spiritually minded people do not put off for tomorrow what they can accomplish today.
