3d image to see and words on Kindness love and prayer and YOU

Kindness love and prayer =611= Torah (Hebrew)

If we were to find one word to describes Judaism. The one word would would be “kindness”. Again, in Leviticus, the Torah teaches, "Love your neighbor as yourself, I am the Lord." By including the phrase "I am the Lord", the Torah teaches us that G-d demands us to love our neighbor. Again, Rabbi Akiba concluded in the Talmud, "Love your neighbor as yourself, this is the major principle of the Torah." We also see in Leviticus "You shall maintain the poor person; whether stranger or sojourner, he shall live beside you." (26:35) And in Deuteronomy "Do not harden your heart and shut your hand against your needy brother. You must open your hand to him.” (15:11)
This “kindness” will be more than reflected to you from God as we see in the Psalms its written “You open your hand, and satisfy the desire of every living thing.” (154:16)
If you open your hand to those in need the God will provide for all your needs. To insure that we are kind to others, I suggest we follow the words of the Prophet Micah, "He has told you, O Man, what is good and what the Lord requires of you: only to do justice and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with your God. (6:8) Stretching ourselves in our caring for each other is central to our spirituality, to Torah. The world is a vale of tears, no doubt about it. At the drop of a simple "how are you" anyone can open their big book of loss, disappointment and pain. It's true for all of us, though surely more for some than others. Its no wonder, that the Jewish tradition elevates deeds of loving kindness to the highest possible ranking among soul-traits. Only some problems have solutions, but all are alleviated by the loving response of those around us. In Pirkei Avot (2:1,Sayings of our Fathers) we learn that: "The world stands on three things: on the Torah, Prayer, and upon acts of loving kindness." The fact that loving kindness is one of the three pillars on which the world stands underlines how very important this soul-trait must be. Kindness is a primary attribute of God. In fact, of the whopping 245 times this word appears in the Torah (telling you something right there), about two-thirds of these instances speak of God's character and actions. God is the Master of kindness, because, as the Psalm states, "The world is built on kindness"(89:3).

A society not directed by the intent of “kindness” is one bent on self-destruction. We see the symptoms all around us – children killing children, people driven to poverty in the name of economic progress, meaningless wars. While we tend to think of these kinds of problems as isolated from each other they really all reflect a lack of “kindness”. This brings us to the next part of our equation “Prayer” which as said above . In Pirkei Avot (2:1,Sayings of our Fathers) we learn that: "The world stands on three things: on the Torah, Prayer, and upon acts of loving kindness." Prayer is an integral part of everyday life. The God has taught us to work on the meditaion of prayer 3 times a day in the morning afternoon and evening. This way we are constantly brought before God's presence in a more revealed way. Prayer increases your awareness of God in your life and the role that God plays in your life. Prayer should make you feel inspired. Prayer is one of the foundations of a Torah lifestyle and one of the things that supports the world. The final part of our equation “Love” itself is the source of the motivation to do kindness to others and with God by the commandments such as Prayer. From this Love is the Motivation to do all good things. The Rambam teaches that a Man's love of G-D is identical with his knowledge of Him as taught in the Guide. So learn Torah and you will find new motivation and inspiration.
