Hashem Loves Me ALWAYS

Rabbi Arush has received so many questions that he is going back to reviewing basics. The most basic principle is that Hashem loves you. This principle is the foundation of all foundations! A person who is going through serious problems and is under a lot of stress needs to remember that Hashem loves him! 

You cannot say that you believe in G-d, but you don't believe He loves you. It's more than just emuna as something that you believe. You also need daat to know that Hashem loves you. Beg Hashem to give you both emuna and daat to believe and know that He loves you. It's not enough to believe this – you must know it! 

Come to your hitbodedut (personal prayer) knowing how much Hashem loves you. Hashem wants only good for you, even more than you want for yourself! He wants to give you the best of everything in this world! But if you're lacking something, it shows that something is blocking Hashem from giving to you.  

For example, you lack a spouse. Can it be that the One who created the entire world doesn't want you to have a spouse? Something is keeping Hashem from giving you what He wants to give, which causes Hashem deep pain. Beg Hashem to fix what you need to fix so that you can meet your spouse and Hashem won't suffer any more. You're not praying just for yourself, you're also praying for Hashem.
