Then we turn to the hidden jewel of Shabbos: Seudah Shlishit, the ne’ilah of every Shabbos. With the Bnei Yissaschar (in the name of R. Menachem Mendel of Rimanov), we learn that at late-afternoon רצון דרצונות the original will to create the world resurfaces—יש מאין energy enters the air. That’s why tefillah there can open gates “beyond nature.” The Chafetz Chaim’s story of a father crying Tehillim at Seudah Shlishit—and the shidduch that birthed the Ketzot HaChoshen—reminds us what one cracked-open heart can draw down.Practical avodah for this Shabbos Shuvah: • Make Seudah Shlishit real (wash, sing, Tehillim, a few words of chizuk). • Guard the עת רצון: start Mincha earlier or plan a later Maariv so you’re not rushing. • Aim your tefillah from the heart—especially for others and for Klal Yisrael. • Choose one small “new note” in learning or song so Shabbos ends with חיות.May the Ribbono Shel Olam let this Seudah Shlishit lift us into a year of revealed mercy—where guf and neshamah, heaven and earth, meet in Shabbos-peace, and miracles above nature become our everyday path.----------For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.comJoin Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/WujXe_7xhH9fZvNQUUrPFWz-q8EzrIeXVKod3RSDOtI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQzODYwLzE3MDI4/MTMyNzktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
