Sounds strange? Well, Chassidus tells us that before Moshiach comes, as we get closer and closer to the […]

There is a pasuk in Torah that says "Those whom Hashem loves, He chastises".  When anything goes wrong in life or when someone goes through suffering (chasve shalom, may we all merit only open revealed good)  we think , as little children would think when their parents punish them, that our Father is angry with us
