Recognizing Miracles Elevates
Rav Shlomo Mann זצ״ל in his book, אור התורה, discusses the significance of miracles. He wrote that man is drawn by two potential forces. He describes the force of good as רשות של קדושה, the domain of holiness. And the force of evil as רשות של הקליפה, the domain of the Klipa, or shell. The latter has a tendency to draw man away from the path of holiness. When one connects and focuses on the miracles that have happened to him in the past. And certainly if he is able to recognize the miracles that take place daily, such a person will be able to free himself from the clutches of the קליפה. Rav Mann is expressing the power that comes when one simply is in a state of recognizing his personal miracles as well as those of עם ישראל. Perhaps this is why we bow in the מודים prayer when we say the words, ועל נסיך שבכל יום עמנו, and for Your miracles that are with us daily. Acknowledge the miracles and great things will happen to us.
