Something religous in my email

Well a little something something i got in my mailbox


Act Now!


Do we truly matter? Would the world be any different if any one of us had not been born? But we were born. Think of it: G-d performed the amazing miracle of birth just so each one of us would be here right now.

This is why the Rebbe believed so passionately in the power of action.

The Rebbe would often point out: The very fact that you are here, in this place, at this time and with these opportunities available to you, means that there is something to be done. Something that only you can do, something of utmost importance to G-d.

Think of it. And then do it.

Your Personal Mission Statement

Here is one of those "little" things that the Rebbe would urge people to do:
Each morning, right upon awakening, take a moment -- the first moment of your new day -- to acknowledge G-d for returning your soul to you.

Say to G-d: "Thank you for giving me life. Thank you for placing a soul within me and making my existence significant. Thank you for putting me on earth with a distinct and unique mission: to bring your presence into my corner of the universe."

Try to make this your first conscious thought of the day, and the first words you speak.

Train yourself to do this every morning, and your entire life will gain a new, sharper focus.
