Tefila4Life Shiur 1129 Neeman (Vayevarech Dovid)

The translation of Avraham Avinu's greatness, the passage says, was Naaman.

A fascinating understanding to think about.

Sometimes a person goes through a test and he wants to know, what can I add? What can I do? What can I fix in my life? And sometimes the message is that a person should fix something.

That's true.

But sometimes the goal is to just see your Nemunas.

Are you steadfast? Are you able to stay with the Rabbi Nishlelem even in the difficulties? And the greatness of the Avis, the greatness of the Tzadikim, is the fact that they do the regular things that everybody else is doing, but they're Nemun to the Rabbi Nishlelem.

whether they're doing something and they're going through a difficulty and they still stick with HaKadosh Baruch Hu, or whether their actions are with the intention of serving their Rabbi Nishlela, says Rabbi Wigdow Miller.

That's also included in Emanus.

The person's entire personality, the person's entire life, is the year of Avedas Hashem, is to serve HaKadosh Baruch Hu.

So when you're faced with a test, or anything you do in life, take a step back and think, why am I doing this? Am I Naaman to the Rabbi Nisholem? Is what I'm doing a demonstration of my allegiance to HaKadosh Baruch Hu? That's Naaman.

That was the greatness of HaRam Avinu.

That's the greatness of every single Yid.

Real greatness is if we can be trusted, if we are steadfast to the Rabbeinu Shalom.

The more our actions mirror Havaidus Hashem, the more the goals of our actions is Havaidus Hashem, the more we are Naaman, the more we can be considered Avdei Hashem.
