Studying Sha’ar HaBitachon, Rabbeinu Bachaya's "Gate of Trust" ~ the Timeless Torah Tome that can teach US ALL How to Conquer Anxiety and Live with Tranquility!
___________________________
In this seventh segment of chapter seven -- we continue with Part II of THE TRUST LADDER that delineates the different steps taken in the development of true Bitachon.
The new Episode, JUST A MEASURE OF FAITH sees the person who matures slowly being to ascend the Ladder of Faith, rung by rung, in measured fashion.
Although only circumstantially inspired to begin to take note of Divine Providence and Hashem's mastery at least it's a beginner level of Bitachon that can ultimately be nurtured and further developed.
Rabbainu Bachaya illustrates the failing nature of such faith -- catalyzed merely by desperation yet acknowledges its value in the eventual attainment of true Trust in G-d!
To help us further appreciate the wide-ranging nature of this foundational lesson, we lean on supporting commentary of our Sages, the profoundly insightful teaching of the Rishonim (medieval masters) and Achronim caped by fascinating contemporary Chasidic insights.
This segment of our Trust Series is the seventh class on the Seventh, and final chapter of Sha'ar HaBitachon. It comprises the 161st consecutive Episode of this series that's designed to enable you to nurture Trust in G-d and overcome your anxieties. Forever!
