Treating Worry And Anxiety With Torah

4/30/2013

0 Comments

 
It is so easy to fill our days with anxious thoughts of worry and dread.  The Torah actually has a cure worth trying. It won't replace proper medication, nor will it take
the place of therapy or exercise, but it will give you an extra boost of hope and calm that can help you through the day.

Why, just a little learning from Torah each day can help remind you of all the people who overcame so much in their lives to do so much good in the world.  Think of Joseph, Jacob and Moses. There was so much difficulty and heartache in their lives.  Yet they mustered their courage and were willing to take risks.  They each did it because they had one common unshakeable belief.   

They believed that God has a purpose for everything.   They understood what was outside of their  control and let go of it.  They took responsibility for what was in their control and did what they needed to do.

So too for us.  With each intentional act of letting go and getting busy, we trade our current worries and anxieties for God's eternal comfort.

    The Golden Medina

    by Edwin Jerome Reuben & Nancy Reuben Greenfield

    When I was thirteen my father said he was going to write a book and I became his editor.
    I loved the book immediately because it had engaging characters, a lot of action, and some interesting philosophical and spiritual twists. 

    But I was an editor and there was plenty of work to do, especially after my father died.  In so many ways it The Golden Medina is a true blend of our interests and talents.

    The Golden Medina is an adolescent journey and coming of age story like none you have read.  Blending early Jewish and Italian immigrant cultures, this is truly a family saga with a twist.

    Whether you like a fast moving plot and unpredicatable characters or intelligent dialogue, this debut fiction is a rare find.
