Parshat Ekev – ONE word

|

Shock swept through the crowd as they read the huge dedication sign on top of the community center:

“In honor of Sarah and Howard Goldberg who were killed during the holocaust by Rivkah and Jacob Goldberg”. It was missing one word: DEDICATED by Rivkah and Jacob Goldberg!

It was missing one word: DEDICATED by Rivkah and Jacob Goldberg!

Some of us don’t take ourselves seriously. Come on! My one word is a drop in the ocean!

Here we see the Terrifying truth. One word might be a drop. But, it has the potential of being a really powerful drop. One word can transform an accomplishment into a disgrace.

One word. That’s all it takes to change lives!

Now, what would happen if this dedication was posted online?

The big seemingly impenetrable world can suddenly absorb this information in lightning speed. It can go viral.

Your one word will not only affect an individual, it can affect the entire world!

This is the power of one word. That’s right our ONE word can have an impact on the entire world!

Wishing you and your family a Shabbat Shalom,

Rabbi Mendy
