Rabbi David Spinrad

“When I was young, I wanted to change the world. I tried, but the world did not change. Then I tried to change my town, but the town did not change. Then I tried to change my family, but my family did not change. Then I understood: First, I must change myself.” Rabbi Israel Salanter, the 19th century master of self-refinement, spoke these words. To change the world, our town, our families are all impossible until we begin with ourselves."

Our world is speedily going towards a downward spiral, don't you think?  Evil is becoming more rampant and people are becoming more hedonistic as time goes on... 

The biggest decision you can make is who do you prioritize?  God or sex or materialism?  Because depending on who your God is depends where you end up...

Are you worshipping a counterfeit God?
