Christian Reflection and Prayer

“On the first day you are to take branches
from luxuriant trees – from palms, willows
and other leafy trees – and rejoice before
the your Lord God for seven days.”
Leviticus 23:40

Every successful organization has learned
to appreciate the different qualities in people.
Some people have amazing vision and
groundbreaking ideas, but when it comes to
caring for details, they totally fall apart. Other
people are great at dotting every “i” and
crossing every “t” but they shy away from the
limelight and prefer working behind the scenes.
It takes all kinds of people to get any initiative
off the ground. The differences between people
are celebrated, because each person’s strength
compensates for the other’s weakness. This is
true unity – not when people work side by side,
but when they fit together like pieces of a puzzle
to make the entire picture beautiful and complete.

What’s your strength? How do you fit into the
human equation? Every team needs a captain
and a manager and a coach and a publicist and
of course, players. It takes all types of people to
make any group successful. Humanity is no
different. The Sages teach that every human
being has his own unique light to add to the world.

FIND YOUR LIGHT AND SHARE IT WITH US ALL!

With prayers for shalom, peace,

Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein
