I just heard an amazing  mushel from Reb Shimshon Pinchus tz'l which I have to share!!!

...when a little boy comes to a very busy street and the cars won't stop but he has to cross, first he gets overwhelmed, panics and then He asks his father, 'can you please help me cross the street....and his father just smiles, grabs his hand and walks his little boy across the street...

 

Am I not the little boy who constantly comes to a very very 'busy' street which I can not cross myself, all I have to do is ask our father in heaven  to grab my little hand and take me across.. and he will gladly do it every time , with a smile.

 

This was so powerful to me because, had the silly little child been conscience of his father all along, he wouldn't have panicked, but immediately reached out to his fathers hand for support and followed his fathers lead across the street.

 

But the little boy thought he could cross by himself and panicked when he realized he couldn't without realizing that his father isn't going to leave him and watch chas v'shalom the worst...

 

Silly little me, had I been conscience of HKB"H all this time, standing there and waiting for me to grab his hand, I would have never gotten into this addiction but rather whenever the temptation would have come my way, I'd simply reach out to him and hold on for support, but now it too late and I have to be taught to stop thinking that I could cross the street by myself.   

 

BUT, I will keep on reaching out for his hand because I know he won't leave leave me by the side walk  and he definitely doesn't want to see me get hit and fall down again
