Dear Rabbi Anava, Thank you so much for the endless information you deliver in your classes, your inspiration, warmth and humor. You have literally transformed my life. My question is: I know a few secular people with serious health conditions and problems with Parnasa and I want to urge them to read Tehilim and Kriyat Shema al-Hamita and even engage in Hitbodedut. But I don't say anything because I'm afraid that once they start connecting with Hashem, something bad might happen to them and they will blame Hashem and eventually it will lead to Hillul Hashem, which is the worst possible outcome I can think of. How can I strengthen their emuna if no-one can promise them anything? Thank you so much, Ktiva ve'Chatima Tova! Ravit

Shalom,

The Best way to strengthen their emuna is to be supportive and give them access to the books and videos here as well as simply letting them hear some of the lectures here with no promises - If the people truly enjoy the content then you can highlight some way for them to get improvement in their lives.

Best Wishes
