The Egel Hazahav – One of our first failed attempts at self-sufficiency.
It doesn’t matter if our problems include trouble with personal relationships, feelings of uselessness, depression, fear, etc. – we all need a “simple reliance upon the Spirit of the Universe.”
I know that when I become “self-reliant”, I am carving G-d out of my life. No wonder I feel so isolated!!
We’re told that it all boils down to Self-Sufficiency versus G-d-Sufficiency. All you need to do is look back and ask yourself, “which has worked best in my life?”
Can we finally take that necessary steps to cross the Bridge of Reason to reach the Shore of Faith?
