Shabbat

part of Judgement is - what?

So many of us judge ourselves too harshly

and some of us not at all

BUT FOR ALL OF US THERE IS

ROSH HASHONO


A JUDGEMENT HOLIDAY


wE ARE supposed TO LRT the light of the Torah

heal our eyes and


restore us to thinking good and positive thoughts

ABOUT OURSELVES AND OTHERS


Seeing good in everyone and


BEING KIND TO ALL - EVEN THAT GUY THAT CUT US OFF IN THE PARKING LOT

(IT'S NETTER FOR OUR HEARTS

EVEN IF HARD).

SO THIS SHABBOS - THE PORTION CALLED


SHOFTIM = JUDGES

IS A WARM UP EXERCISE FOR ROSH HASHONO


LOVE FROM Rabbi Andy Eichenholz

always on the way to Jerusalem
And from my friend Rabbi Sholom Brodt this word and piture of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach


RESTORE OUR JUDGES

Remember the daily 'Amiddah' prayer which we recite three times a day, we ask of Hashem:
"Restore our judges as in former times, and our counselors as of yore; remove from us sorrow and sighing; and reign over us, You alone, O Lord, with kindness and compassion, with righteousness and justice. Blessed are You Hashem, King who loves righteousness and justice."
