Kavannah

‘The prophet is not concerned with his own salvation’

But I am

I’m petrified 

Every nightmare is a disaster not just for the world 

But for me 

‘Judaism is not concerned with personal salvation but with universal redemption’

It can be tough to focus on the latter when the issue of the former is swimming in front of your eyes 

God asks for kavannah - for the heart 

But Jeremiah says ‘the heart is deceitful above all things’ 

Where does that leave us? leave me? When I wake up in the morning, still coursing with what I saw during the night?
