A person with faith has a very good life. Without faith there is no life at all. No one in the world can be free of troubles and hardships of one kind or another, because “Man was born to struggle,” (Job 5:7).
But a person who has faith can find comfort even when she has to endure pain and suffering. She knows that God loves her and intendes everything for her own ultimate good…
The sophisticated unbeliever has no one to turn to when trouble strikes. She can find comfort nowhere. There is nothing to encourage her…
Through faith, your life can be good always. —Excerpted from Advice (Likutey Eitzos), Reb Nosson’s collection of Rebbe Nachman’s advice; translation by the Breslov Research Institute
