Likkutei Sichos Chelek lamed vov. Pg 1.

"In this week's Parsha we see that after Moshe kills the mitzri he sees 2 yidden fighting and he becomes fearful and then Pharoah hears about this incident and Moshe runs away. Moshes emotions don’t seem necessary to the story line. Torah is purposefully teaching us something by telling us Moshes emotions. (Midrash brings other examples of Yaakov and Moshe feeling fear - even with direct promises from Hashem that things would be OK). Analyze: what is the bitachon level we are expected to have? a) trust that Hashem WILL do it, not just could do it. -->feel serene, calm. Challenge: what if i don’t deserve it? ie schar v’onesh b) Method 1: Hashem runs the world. All Hashem does is for the good ""gam zu l'tova"" I can be comfortable with whatever happens because it’s from Hashem. The Rebbe says, NO thats not enough! Torah expects more from us --> c) Method 2: Expect & assume that Hashem will do ""Tov HaNireh V'Haniglah"". Hashem WILL save me from my tzarah. Challenge: Im not a tzadik! ""Tracht Gut Vet Zein Gut"" the actual tracht gut is what brings the gut! We are obligated to tracht gut! Actively place myself to rely on Hashem! Bitachon is NOT Emunah. Emunah = Hashem is infinite and kind and all capable. Bitachon = an active stance/avodah that Im taking, and THIS avodah itself makes me worthy to receive the ""Tov HaNireh V'Haniglah"" Bitachon itself causes the yeshua from Hashem. Back to the Moshe story - Moshe verbalized his negative thoughts, the Rebbe says: don’t underestimate the power of our words. Verbalize positivity! When faced with an obstacle, work on your bitachon! Hashem will be able to help you and it will be good. Of course, you must also put dira btachtonim efforts – but we have been promised Tracht Gut Vet Zein Gut! – for real!"
