TASTING THE REWARD

Moshiach is not simply a reward, but a direct and natural outcome of our efforts. Therefore, our efforts need to be similar to the state of Moshiach. It is true that when Moshiach comes, everything will be elevated and we will be on a completely higher plane. Nevertheless, it is possible for us to imitate, prepare for, and begin to taste the perfection of Moshiach now. By doing so, we open the way for Moshiach’s coming.
