You are the possibility in the universe.
You are the promise and you are the blessing.
Nachshon son of Aminadav was the prince of the Tribe of Judah during the journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. He is known for his bravery as the first to enter the Sea of Reeds, prompting its miraculous split. (Chabad.Org)
Who would take the initial step?
The Jewish people were standing between a "rock and a hard place" in front of them, the raging sea, behind them, and army wanting to destroy them.
It was Nachshon who exhibited remarkable bravery, plunging into the water and forging ahead. He took one step in. He went first, and as he courageously advanced, G‑d miraculously split the sea, and the Jewish people walked through their miracle, unscathed, because Nachshon paved the way.
Who is the Nachshon of your life if not you? Who is the Nachshon of my life if not me?
Nachshon exhibited deep faith in himself, and the divine. He knew without a shadow of doubt that his miracle was arising. He was the OG manifestor, way before pop culture. He holds the archetype of someone who goes first, with pure faith. The ultimate tiferet (balance): holding the deepest humility and confidence in that one step.
Humility in deference to God, and confidence in his deep belief and the possibility in the universe of an open miracle
So I ask myself: where will you be Nachshon today?
And every day the answer is the same: in the one next step you have before you. In the deepening in the faith in myself and the universe. In the holding of the frequency of miracles and the FACT that we ALL are a conduit for them.
Nachshon. May we know him, may we follow him, may we see him, may we BE him.
(I wrote a letter to the lubavitcher Rebbe with @makomsanctuary suggestion before the retreat happening tomorrow. Inside of the letter I received back among other things (which was WILDLY affirmative, aligned and seemingly psychic) "You are The Nachshon. Best of luck and many blessings on your Wild Project"
Walking with Nachshon, walking as Nachshon into this portal of an experience for myself and all attendees. )
Thank you Nachshon, thank you Rebbe, thank you Hashem, thank you elders, thank you to the seen and unseen forces that support us. ❤️
