We know it will be good because H'shem is good, even though right now I am going through hard times. Let's take our Tehillim and say Kapitel Mizmor L'Todah, moving our feet and smiling, not waiting until we see the good outcome. By doing this, we reinforce our knowledge that in the end we will praise and thank H'shem because it will be good - because He is good.
Focusing on this now strengthens our emunah and bitachon in Him.
Here are some gentle reminders for focusing on the positive outcome that I know will come:
1. When stress feels heavy, pause for a moment to say "Kol man d'avid Rachmana l'tav avid" (everything that the Merciful One does is for the good) and take a few deep breaths. This simple practice helps remind us that everything comes from H'shem, who only does things for our good and so it is good and will be good.
2. Make a little notebook and write down experiences from your life when you were struggling but later realized H'shem was there all along, guiding everything for your benefit. Keep it handy as your personal reminder that just as H'shem brought you through those times, He is orchestrating everything for good now too.
3. When worries come, try saying "H'shem, I trust You're preparing something amazing" - transform the worry moment into one of connection and faith.
These practices aren't about denying the difficulty - they're about strengthening our connection to the truth that H'shem is guiding everything for our ultimate good.
