A Moment in Time: “God, Where ARE You?”

[additional-authors]
May 1, 2020
Dear all,
I recently asked God, “Where ARE You?”
And God responded, “Zach, where are YOU?”
(God must have gone to Rabbinical school, where we learn to answer a question with a question!)
Take a moment in time to consider how you might respond to God’s question. Where are you emotionally? Where are you spiritually? Where are you physically? Where are you in this world that so desperately needs our partnership? And once you find your answer – go out and do what you can to make a difference.
With love and shalom,
Rabbi Zach Shapiro
