Have you ever stopped to think about what your strengths and weaknesses are?

"Parashá Vaierá" 5783
The Torah tells us: "The Creator appeared to him in the mamber grove, while he was at the entrance of the tent, during the heat of the day."It was specifically when he was sick and weak after circumcision that Abraham merited a revelation from the Creator. The same applies to anyone who is sick or weak; they deserve to have the Divine Presence rest upon them. (Nedarim 40a) In the most difficult and painful moments of our lives, it is precisely there that the Divine Presence comes to protect and save us. So don't limit your Creator, have Emuna, because...

“Send men for you so that explore the land of Canaan” (Bamidbar 13:2) The spies committed a terrible sin by speaking ill of the Promised Land. The great commentator Rashi asks why the Parashah that speaks of the spies was related to the parashah that speaks of Miriam, and answers that it is because she had been punished for the slander she said about her brother, and these wicked people saw the punishment she received, but still did not assimilate the lesson.
