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.\nPractical avodah for this Shabbos Shuvah:\n• Make Seudah Shlishit real (wash, sing, Tehillim, a few words of chizuk).\n• Guard the עת רצון: start Mincha earlier or plan a later Maariv so you’re not rushing.\n• Aim your tefillah from the heart—especially for others and for Klal Yisrael.\n• Choose one small “new note” in learning or song so Shabbos ends with חיות.\nMay 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.\n----------For more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com\nJoin 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}
