“A person must pass through a very very narrow bridge, but the main/essential thing is not to be afraid AT ALL!”

This crucial lesson is Rabeinu giving all of those people who truly want to serve G-d the fundamental advice on how to be strong when it gets tough! Rabeinu explains that it’s the way of HASHEM to show a person rejection when he wants to come close to Him. The main thing is not discourage yourself and to be mentally strong.

Rabeinu teaches us that we have to encourage ourselves constantly, and not even let G-d Himself discourage us, when it feels as if He wants nothing to do with us… because the truth is, G-d is ultimately merciful and finds our service very very precious!
