This is going to be one of the shim that
going to be one of the foundational shim
that's going to help you in your life.
Because when it comes to life, it
doesn't matter who you are. You know,
you were born rich, you were born poor,
you were born religious, you were born
secular, born Jewish, born not Jewish.
It doesn't really make a difference who
you are and where you started and where
you are today. Everyone, absolutely
everyone goes through tough times.
There's simply no question about it. And
sometimes a person goes through such
difficulties whether it's a health
difficulty, financial difficulty,
relationships, children, parents,
whatever it is, addictions. Sometimes a
person's difficulty is so much so that
they truly feel like they're alone. They
truly feel like they're crying alone and
no one is listening. And really the
question is, does God actually hear your
lonely crying? Now everyone has heard
that Hashem heard am cry in Egypt and we
learned that again in parad he heard our
cries he answered our cries but the
question still remains in everyone's
heart at times and certainly in their
mind whether he hears your cry okay so
he heard 3,300 years ago and he heard
some other people that you heard about
that they got a salvation but when a
person is going through difficulty when
they're agonizing in pain whether it's
financial pain or physical pain or
spiritual pain or whatever whatever it
is and you feel completely alone, you
could feel completely miserable. Some
people even get to the point of wanting
to commit suicide. Unfortunately,
somebody uh sent me a letter just uh the
other day and telling me that they're in
such pain and agony. They're asking me
if it's permissible for them to kill
themselves. And of course, it's not. But
the point is the fact that a person got
to that level of pain, which I'm very
familiar with, is certainly tragic. The
answers of mutay are in the Torah to
these questions of whether a kadosh
listens to your

cries. Don't think for a moment that a
kadoo does not hear you
crying. Don't think for a moment that a
kadu is not in the pain with you.

Don't think for a moment that those
cries, those tears, that blood that was
shed was for
nothing. All of that is part of the
perfect acculations of a
kadosh. Whether I'm hearing the cry,
whether I'm hearing the pain, I'm
already here
with the next question. Everyone will
naturally ask is if he hears me cry then
why doesn't it seem like he's answering?
