Rabbi's Corner

Message from the Rabbi

I Don’t Know
“The midwives, fearing God, did not do as the king of Egypt had told them; they let the boys live.” (Exodus 1:17)

There are things we just don’t know. Admitting that is so hard to do. Sometimes we have no choice but to put our lives in another’s hands. There are the rare occurrences when we must force ourselves to trust someone else.  There are times when others simply are better equipped for a certain moment than we are.  Realizing that is the hard part.  Once we have arrived at this perspective, life does become easier. However, our egos often stop us before we ever get to giving ourselves over.  In moments when we find ourselves at odds with someone else, pausing to ask ourselves, “is it possible they know more than I do?” can change our perspective.
