Double Faith






We stand before the king with our requests and needs.
Please give us health...
And sustenance.
And life...
Our chances our pretty good.


But then we need to ruin it by saying...
Oh god not just for us but for my entire village...nah for the entire nation of Israel.
What kind of idiot does that?
What are the chances of that happening?
When was the last time a full year when by and EVERYONE had life, health and sustenance?
And yet we don't look at that...we have faith that this might just be that year...



God looks down at us asking for forgiveness.
He must wonder.
Gee this sounds familiar.
Didn't you promise me the same things last year?
When was the last time a year went by without you dirtying yourself with the same sins.
And yet He doesn't look at that.
V'chol Ma'aminim SheHu Eil Emunah. God has faith...that perhaps this might just be the year.

really nice thought, however I think it's ok to pray foremost for oneself on that awesome day as it's fair to assume that nearly everyone actually prays as well on that very day.
