Bnei Machshava Tova, Daily Instructions 14/בני מחשבה טובה·סדר הדרכה וכללים י״ד

1Utilize the Sabbath WellDo not let Friday and Saturday nights in the winter, when the Sabbath begins early, go to waste. Do not go to sleep before eleven o’clock (unless you are planning to rise at dawn). Be aware, on the one hand, of your Maker; and, on the other, of the depths.

2Addendum: The Love and Fear of GodI have not discussed in any detail the subject of loving and fearing God. This is because in fact every Jewish soul already fears and loves God. The problem is that, since the soul is buried beneath a mat of straw and hidden within the body, its love and fear are also hidden. But when you follow the advice here in order to bring your soul forth, then you will see your love and fear of God appear in their purity. With God’s help, they will grow manifest.
