Description

Part of the nisayon is that during the nisayon (test), you don’t see any benefit that will result. When we have a new n’fila (downfall), we have a tendency to remember only the old n’fila but not how much we have grown. Depression often results from a n’fila after a success and we often fall further the second time. We must believe that we are a baal teshuvah (repentant) and more elevated than even a tzaddik. Connecting everything in our life to Hashem during our davening.
