Rebbe Nachman of Breslov taught… |
Know that faith, miracles, prayer and the Land of Israel are all a single, organic whole. The Land of Israel is the place where faith, miracles and prayer reach their highest expression. |
What does this mean to me? |
Just a few weeks ago, I heard the President of the Unites States—visiting in my hometown, Jerusalem—quote a famous Israeli political figure: “In Israel, to be a realist, you must believe in miracles.” Even though we aren’t living in the age of open miracles, and even though the modern state of Israel is far, far from fulfilling its spiritual potential, nevertheless the way to this point has been paved by miracles that only the most obtuse observer would deny. Rebbe Nachman stressed that miracles not only happen here, but that they are the essential nature of the place. And when we increase our faith and trust in the One who performs these miracles, we will discover that He provides more of them; when we learn to pray for them, we will find ourselves on the way to redemption. |
