Pray for a Successful Journey

Thoughts and Prayers from Jerusalem

Shalom from Jerusalem!

Whoever sets out for a journey must recite the Traveler's Prayer.

Brachot 29

Many things that we learn about on a micro level can be applied on a macro level as well.

Surely, the concept of uttering a prayer before commencing a journey is an understandable one. This guidance of the sages can be applied to our entire lives as well. As the saying goes, "today is the first day of the rest of your life." A journey can be for one hour, a day, a few weeks, or truly for the rest of your life. As we are all travelers on the journey of life, we should make sure that along with all of our other gear - we pack a prayer.

Today, put your life into perspective and pray to God for success in your journeys.
