Map
I can tell
you
why
everything is
so terrible
here.
Why do
humans hurt each other
so poorly?
Why is
there so much strife?
Why does
all that injustice
scream to
heaven?
There is a very simple reason
for all of it:
Because the
map is being ignored.
Almost everyone knows about it
but hardly
anyone
pays
attention to it.
Few read it
and even fewer
act
according to it.
Some will talk about it,
but even
then
not
everything is true.
Who makes the effort
to check what
is being said?
The one who knows the map
realizes it
shows the way
for his
confused soul.
The one who follows the map
knows that
its ways
are not
always easy,
but definitely
healthier
than
anything
being done
otherwise.
You can find the way back out
of the dead-end
street.
You learn
to recognize traps
and avoid
them.
You get the
right directions
even in the
deepest and darkest valleys.
From time
to time
you find
resting places
that are
inviting you to stay.
Everyone wishes very much
to have
that knowledge.
But few do
what it takes to have it
and order
their life according to it.
Oh, what kind of dumb people we are,
for over
and over again
we orient
ourselves
according
to the principles of lust
and quick desires
and power
and possession.
They are at
the top of the list
even when
our own soul
dies in the
process.
How much longer
do we want
to add to the pain
and look in
the wrong places
for direction
when all
along
we know
good and well
that the
map is correct?
Take a Bible in your hand
and begin
to study in it.
Everyone should
do it on his own,
for the
path of inner healing
looks different
for everyone.
We have all
been traumatized by this world in our own way
and we all
did different things in the wrong way over and over again.
We are all
stuck in different places,
but if you
use the map for direction
you can be
set free out of that prison too.
Showing humans the way,
keeping
humans from traps,
bringing
humans
who were
led astray back –
that is the
purpose and reason
for the
map.
I can advise you:
stop your
prejudices,
get ahold
of a map
and start
to heal.

Proverbs 3:5–6 (The Israel Bible)
Trust
in Hashem with all your heart, And do not rely on your own
understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths
smooth.
Proverbs 29,18 (The Israel Bible)
For lack of
vision a people lose restraint, But happy is he who heeds instruction.
