Hashem has no form — yet He shapes every moment of our lives. In this episode, we explore the third principle of faith and the powerful metaphor of Hashem as the Author beyond the story.

In Episode 14, we return to Rambam’s original order to explore two powerful lines from Yigdal:
נִמְצָא וְאֵין עֵת אֶל מְצִיאוּתוֹ — Hashem is present beyond time.
נֶעֱלָם וְגַם אֵין סוֹף לְאֶחְדוּתוֹ — Hashem is hidden yet infinitely One.

Discover the Torah sources, the timeless truth they hold, and one simple anchor you can carry into your week.

In this episode of Tefilah Today, we explore the first and third lines of Yigdal, focusing on what it means that Hashem is both alive and actively present in our lives, and that His unity is unlike anything else in existence.

Rooted in Rambam’s Ani Maamin, Tehillim, and timeless hashkafic sources, we’ll share practical emunah tools to help you carry these truths into your daily life—with clarity and peace.

Adon Olam: From Cosmic to Personal

We sing it daily. But inside its 10 lines is a movement:

5 words about who Hashem is…

then 5 lines about what He is for you.

Discover how this simple prayer carries you from the vast to the intimate — and how to anchor one line in your day.

🙏 A tefilah practice you can use this week

You don’t have to control everything.

You’re tethered — to the Timeless.

Adon Olam doesn’t introduce the day — it reorients it.

Before we speak, before we ask, this tefillah declares:
Hashem ruled before anything existed.

In this episode, we explore why Adon Olam is placed at the very beginning of the day — and how it offers a foundation, not just a phrase. It invites us to start from presence, not pressure.

“You’re not holding the world.

You’re stepping into one already held — by Hashem.”

In this episode, we delve into the profound structure of Adon Olam and Yigdal — two tefillos that anchor our morning prayers. One expresses emotional trust in Hashem. The other is intellectual clarity in Hashem's truth. Together, they help us show up to davening as whole, grounded Jews — with our hearts and minds aligned with Hashem.

When someone welcomes you even at your lowest — that changes you.

In this episode, we explore how Hashem, in His deep mercy, responds to our failings not with distance, but with closeness. After the sin of the Golden Calf, He gives us the Mishkan — a physical space to connect with His presence. It’s a message: Hashem understands the human condition. He knows we need something tangible. And that act of compassion awakens something powerful in us — love.

That’s what David HaMelech means when he says, 'Hashem, I have loved the dwelling of Your house...'

It’s not just a place. It’s a relationship.
