Loosen your grasp. Stop trying to micromanage your world. The One who made it is already doing just that.

What does He leave for you? Opportunities. Another chance and another chance to do good.

And if you should fail, yet another chance.

Grab the opportunities. Let Him decide where they lead.

- Rebbe, as adapted by Rabbi Tzvi Freeman for Chabad.org

Wishing you an uplifting Shabbat,

Rabbi Mendy & Mussy
