A Father's Love

As I read the other night and these words left my mouth, I was struck by the love, wisdom and prescience of Reb Eliezer, close to 100 years old and on his deathbed, as he spoke to his young son, Yisrael, the Yisrael that grew to be the holy Baal Shem Tov that we love and revere, whose light nourishes us every day. Reb Eliezer said:

My darling, remember this well, every day of your life: God is with you, so don’t be afraid of anything.
