Parshat Matot masei: The Importance of the Journey

🎧 Listen to this and other episodes at www.joidenver.com/podcasts

📖 This Week’s Parsha: Parshat Masei The Torah enumerates all 42 stops the Jewish people made during their 40 years in the desert. Most are trivial, little more than pit stops, places where “nothing important happened. We read the names and think, Why does this matter? But don't you see when you look back on your own life? Those “filler” moments weren't filler moments at all. The waiting, the travel, and the stops that seemed to lead nowhere made you. They taught you something. They had prepared you for what was to come. The Torah has every single stop because every single stop was part of the story. You weren't wasting time in the desert; you were becoming. What you thought was just passing time was actually instrumental to who you are. Trust the process. Every stop matters.

Shabbat Shalom. 🛣️
