Description

As we detach ourselves from the feeling of ownership, we relate to the whole world as if everything is a disposable container. There are three stages: 1) recognize that everything is from Hashem; 2) talk to Hashem that everything is His; and 3) ask G-d for help to really feel that everything is from Him. Placing emphasis on stories about Divine Providence is dangerous. Just as one feels Hashem’s guidance when special, miraculous events occur, so must we feel His guidance each day and each hour.
