The Only Advice: Emunah and Bitachon
The Daily Chizuk from Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

The Daily Chizuk from our teacher, the holy Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a – "The only advice is faith and trust"
Friday, 11 Sivan 5782 – "One must study Gemara every day," these are his holy words:
Just like Rabbi Chanina ben Dosa, where there was an argument between the shepherd and the homeowner.
The homeowner said to the shepherd, "Why did you run away? Why are you running? So what if there is a lion? What happened? Are you afraid of the lion? What?"
"I am praying, I am doing hitbodedut for you so that you will have courage! So that you will not fear lions!"
"It would have been better if you were there, you would have had a plan - it is forbidden to run away!!! You would have had a plan, you would have stumbled upon some plan on how to subdue the lion!!! To throw a stone at it, something. You ran away, so that's it, there is nothing to be done, it devoured 5 sheep."
It is written regarding our forefather Jacob that a lion would come to devour 5 sheep every day, every morning and every evening.
Our forefather Jacob would perform a brit milah for them, for the lion, for the sheep; he would circumcise them, because all the sheep were later reincarnated in the grandchildren of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - in the seventy souls, everyone was reincarnated in the seventy souls.
Therefore, Jacob would study Gemara and Shas with them; he studied Ketzot HaChoshen with them.
One must study Ketzot HaChoshen every day, even with the sheep; whoever has sheep should study with them.
