A 2-minute daily Geulah lesson to inspire your day.
It's short: it's quick, its insightful, and it's bringing Moshiach!
LIVING IN THE MOMENT
In every generation (and every day), one must conduct himself as if he were leaving Egypt at this very moment.
(Rambam, Mada, Chametz U’Matza 7:8; Tanya 47)
Our sages tell us that it is not enough to commemorate liberation; we must live as free men.
It is normal for a person to feel chained to his past, that he must fulfill an unwritten obligation to the world to continue to be who he once was. This, however, is not the case.
Instead, we must see every day, and every moment, as a fresh start. G-d created you and gave you life at this moment, and He gives you the freedom to choose how to live your life. Moshiach is all about seizing that opportunity and living that moment to its fullest. For a Jew, that means living a Jewish life to its fullest.
Sefer HaSichos 5751 vol. II pgs. 691-2.
