Lama Nigara - למה נגרע | Moshe Auslander

Did you ever feel so broken that you were sure there was no way back? The Yidden in the Midbar who were tamei for the Korban Pesach in Mitzrayim had no recourse. They had missed it. Messed up. Done. Yet they wanted it so badly, they turned to Hashem and asked “Lama Nigara? Why should we miss out?” Hashem saw their deep desire for closeness and acquiesced to their request. Our Tzadikim say - it was this wanting a second chance that made the opportunity available. When we feel far away - we need to know His door is open wide, and he is waiting for us to call out with everything we have. That ratzon, that wanting, can change the world. This niggun was written when I felt pushed away. It is a real conversation with Hashem. It is a question, a cry of yearning, and in an important way, it gives permission to be totally real with Hashem. We thank Hashem, we speak honestly and openly to Hashem, and sometimes we cry to Hashem, and tell Him things hurt, because our relationship is totally REAL.
