How Can a Finite Human Connect to an Infinite G-d? The key is awe. Awe means feeling part of something huge. Something completely limitless. Deep awe happens only when you remove limits from your perception of G-d. But here’s something important to consider: Believing in G-d as a Trinity might unintentionally limit your awe. Sound […]
Imagine this: An infinite, all-powerful G-d actually cares deeply about your daily choices. Sounds strange, right? We often picture G-d as someone far away, too big or perfect to need anything from us. But the truth is surprisingly different—and comforting: G-d chooses to experience pleasure from you. Why? Because G-d is literally infinite love itself. […]
It says after we leave this world, one of the first questions G-d asks is: “Did you eagerly await redemption?” But wait—what does that even mean?

It’s about feeling disconnected. Have you noticed how sometimes you feel hopeful and other times totally lost?

Sometimes your “nicest” qualities can secretly mess you up. Here’s a truth no one talks about: Sometimes, trauma makes you feel spiritual. Crazy, right? But think about this: 1. You say “yes” to everyone because you’re “humble” or “kind.” But deep down you’re exhausted, lonely, and feel unseen. 2. You’re always busy “helping” or “being […]
Feeling disconnected from G-d because of mistakes you’ve made? That feeling when you mess up and suddenly feel alone… Here’s the unexpected truth: Mistakes aren’t barriers, they’re invitations.

Understanding G-d begins by understanding yourself. Sounds weird? Here’s what I mean—simplified: Step 1: Awareness Notice Your Inner Roommates. Inside you, there are two voices: 1. The G-dly voice (calm, wise, kind) 2.
