A little girl struggling with a rare cancer has had her dreams come true after meeting her pop idol Justin Bieber; Avalanna Routh, six, has fought an aggressive and deadly brain cancer since she was a baby.
The Talmud-Book of Law teaches, Better one moment of good deeds in this world than all the pleasure derived in the next world; the Cabala explains, Only on this physical dimension can the will of the Creator be accomplished – in the next world, light obscures the essence.
The essence is God who created creation to be known; when we have a relationship with God about our lives and what occurs – then, God is known in the world. Part of knowing God is knowing what God wants; God wants sacrifice of our animal instinct and with virtue arise.
The natural feeling of elation accompanying a virtuous act is a sign, the Creator is also elevated in the eyes of creation – when God’s creation does good then the Creator is elevated. Each life is a contribution to the purification of our planet through love and wisdom.
The Bal Shem Tov who ten generations ago brought the secret Jewish knowledge to the world was asked, How to love God? He responded saying, Love what God loves. The Creator loves creation – the glorious successes and the pitiful circumstances, all are beloved by the Creator.
