Parshas Chayei Sara (5765)
by Mordechai Dolinsky
To many it seems so sad that the news of Akeidas Yitzchok caused the passing away of Sara Imainu. However, it was the concern over the future of Clal Yisroel that really disturbed her. This means that in her petirah she was serving Hashem in a very high form; what a zchus.
When some unpleasantness is destined for us, chas v’shalom, it is the greatest gift from Heaven to be able to fulfill it in the service of Hashem.
Have a wonderful Shabbos.
