Description

Living with G-d constantly on our mind in the most amazing thing in the world, which we can't understand until we live it. We can only imagine things which aren’t real. Something which could be real is much harder to imagine. We can't imagine the great feeling of living constantly with G-d. When we speak of G-d it should be on a personal level so that kids can see G-d isn’t just an abstract idea. The more we internalize the idea that G-d exists and it fills our heart, the closer we will be to G-d in this world and the next. We don’t feel that we need to be close to Hashem in this world because we are monetarily very secure. In the next world when we will see what close really is, we will want to be close.
