The Jewish people did not stand at Sinai fully healed.

They had just left slavery.

They were still carrying fear, confusion, old survival habits, and generations of trauma.

And still, they accepted a relationship with The Creator.

That is a serious lesson.

You do not need to be fully healed before you accept responsibility.

You do not need to be fully healed before you enter a deeper relationship.

But you do have to care about becoming refined.

You have to be willing to study your character.

You have to notice where you still react from fear, resentment, numbness, shame, or control.

Because healing does not mean waiting until nothing hurts anymore.

Healing often begins when a person says:

I am still carrying pain, but I am willing to become responsible anyway.

That is a lesson Sinai teaches.

The Creator does not wait until a person becomes perfect before asking for relationship.

He asks for willingness.

He asks for honesty.

He asks for a person who cares about becoming more refined than he was yesterday.

One set of beliefs helps a nervous system more then any other:
