Ashray Kol-chosay vo

Happy are those that take refuge in Him (God). (Psalm 2:12)

Psalm 2 tells about the dangers of the world and reassures us that all attempts at the ultimate destruction of goodness are doomed to fail. In the end, the key to our ultimate safety is in the gesture of taking refuge in God. It is only when we turn towards the Eternal and lean into the Divine embrace, that we will know ultimate joy, prosperity and success.
