Keyword: D'var (דבר) – 'Word'
D’var (davar) means ‘word’—but in Jewish tradition, words shape reality. God empowers Jeremiah, a hesitant young man, to speak words that uplift and restore. Divine connection grows as we believe that our voices matter.
Perhaps you sometimes feel hesitant or unsure, like Jeremiah. God’s call is personal: “I am with you.” Spiritual connection is grounded in honest conversation—with God and with others. Your words, even when faltering, can console and transform.
- Daily Practice: Share a word of encouragement or kindness with someone today, embracing the healing power of d’var.
Do you wrestle with self-doubt? Ask Rabbi Ari how prophets found confidence in their calling—and how you can too.
