Recently, some גוישע religious group at MIT started something they call corkfessions. Basically, (atheist and agnostic) people send in their confessions, and then those confessions get printed on posters and put up on bulletin boards all over campus. (Yet another thing for me to raise my eyebrows at when I walk down the halls on my way to class...)
I try not to read them, obviously, because most of them are straight-out apikorsus, but I noticed a short one today. It said, "I wish I believed in G-d. My life would be so much easier." Or something like that.
I don't know what prompted whatever atheist student to come to that realization and write that in. But I guess that person is right to some extent.
אמונה and בטחון do make our lives so much easier. There's SomeOne orchestrating this world with a Master plan that makes sense when viewed from above. There's SomeOne to Whom I can daven any time, no matter where I am, and no matter what is going on in my life. There's SomeOne Who helps me every millisecond of every second of every minute of every hour of every day. I can't move a finger without Hashem's help. And He יתברך keeps me alive, He gives me back my נשמה each and every morning, because He knows that I can accomplish something good -- שהחזרת בי נשמתי בחמלה, רבה אמונתיך. He has given me all the כוחות and abilities, all the tools I need, in order to deal with everything in my life. So I can do it!! And there's a purpose to what I'm doing, there's meaning in my life.
So yes, my life is easier. And I wouldn't want to live any other way.
אשרינו מה טוב חלקינו ומה נעים גורלינו ומה יפה ירושתינו!!!
