Drawing upon the wisdom of the Holy Tzadik, Rabbi Yosef Dov Soloveitchik ZT"L, the Brisker Rav, Rabbi Lerner unveils a captivating perspective. He explains that for an individual to truly earn merit for bitachon – trust in Hashem – or for any other mitzvah, their actions must stem from free choice, unburdened by external pressure. If Hashem were to constantly perform overt miracles, making His presence undeniably obvious, it could inadvertently sway a person's choices. This divine intervention, though seemingly beneficial, might be interpreted as a form of pressure, diminishing the purity of free will and, consequently, the credit a person receives for their actions. But the discussion doesn't end there. Rabbi Lerner delves deeper, sharing the profound commentary of the Ramban on a verse in Shemos (13:16). The Ramban asserts that the entirety of nature is no less miraculous than the splitting of the sea. The everyday occurrences we often take for granted – the rain, the wind, the snow – are all intricately orchestrated by Hashem. We simply don't perceive them as miraculous because we've grown accustomed to their regularity. This thought-provoking insight challenges us to reconsider our definition of a miracle and open our eyes to the constant divine presence in our world.
