Omer Day 46 נצח שבמלכות Netzach SheBeMalchut

Endurance. Victory. Day-to-Day. Long Haul. Eternity. Perseverance. Active Principle within Majesty. Kingdom. Actualization. Shekhina. Selfitude. Sovereignty. Reality.

1) “How do you find Shekhina’s Presence in your life?” she asked. “It’s a Day-to-Day thing for me,” I shared. Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Do the dishes. “Chop wood, carry water,” I’ver heard it said. Did I mention sitting in the silence? Did I mention Day-to-Day?

2) She knows just the right buttons to push! Any time I manage to deactivate the function of those buttons is surely a Victory of Selfitude.

3) If I am walking hand in hand with Shekhina, what is there to Endure?

Today, may you be blessed with Victory in your encounters with Reality. May your Day-to-Day work to sustain and maintain your connection with Divine Presence.
