Have you ever waited for divine rescue without lifting a finger? The Ramchal teaches that while Hashem is our ultimate Helper, He won't save us unless we first open our eyes and take action. It's tempting to blame our struggles on fate or cover our ears and pretend nothing's wrong, but without genuine self-awareness and effort, even miracles remain out of reach. Why do we expect Hashem's support when we won't support ourselves? How can you ignite your own will to change before calling out for aid? This episode will inspire you to begin with honest self-examination—showing you how to "help yourself" by opening your eyes to challenges, awakening your inner resolve, and turning to Hashem with heartfelt tefillah.
