Hayom Yom 28 Cheshvan - Divine Providence is absolute
from The daily Hayom Yom with Rabbi Yosef Katzman
עִנְיַן הַהַשְׁגָּחָה פְּרָטִית הוּאThe concept of hashgachah peratis דְּלֹא זוּ בִּלְבַד דְּכָל פְּרָטֵי תְּנוּעוֹת הַנִּבְרָאִים לְמִינֵיהֶם הֵם בְּהַשְׁגָּחָה פְּרָטִיתmeans not only that every particular movement of the various created beings is controlled by Divine Providence, וְהִיא הִיא חַיּוּת הַנִּבְרָא וְקִיּוּמוֹwhich also determines the vitality and ongoing existence of that created being; אֶלָּא עוֹד זֹאת דִּתְנוּעָה פְּרָטִית שֶׁל נִבְרָא יֵשׁ לָהּ יַחַס כְּלָלִי לִכְלָלוּת כַּוָּנַת הַבְּרִיאָהit also means that each particular movement of every being is directly related to the overall intent underlying the creation…. דִּבְצֵרוּף וְאִחוּד כָּל הַפְּעוּלוֹת הַפְּרָטִיוֹת... נִשְׁלְמָה כַּוָּנָה הָעֶלְיוֹנָה בְּסוֹד הַבְּרִיאָה כּוּלָהּFor through the combination and synthesis of all the particular activities…, the sublime mystical intent underlying all of creation is consummated.וְיִתְבּוֹנֵן הָאָדָםA person should consider: וּמַה אִם תְּנוּעַת עֵשֶׂב בָּאָה בְּהַשְׁגָּחָה פְּרָטִית וְנוֹגַעַת לְהַשְׁלָמַת כַּוָּנַת הַבְּרִיאָהIf the movement of a blade of grass is prompted by Divine Providence and has a role to play in fulfilling the intent of creation, מִין הַמְּדַבֵּר בִּכְלָל וְיִשְׂרָאֵל עַם קְרוֹבוֹ בִּפְרָט עַל אַחַת כַּמָּה וְכַמָּהhow much more so with regard to the human species in general, and to the Jewish people, the nation close to Him, in particular.Text and Translation courtesy of Sichos in English
