QUESTION:
I feel like the Rav’s words can change the world. I want to keep spreading the Rav’s message to the world about how severe the issue of using Internet and smartphones is, how it is preventing a person from being by the Geulah, how it can mean that he is possibly joining the “Erev Rav” by being unwilling to give up Internet use, etc. I feel like the Rav’s words can save the world and bring Mashiach! Only Mashiach will change the world and return everyone to teshuvah, but still I feel that the Rav’s sefarim and of the Rav’s words, as well as the sefarim of Rav Yitzchok Meir Morgenstern shlit”a, can change the world greatly and make us all worthy of the Geulah. How can I go about this in a way that I’m not spreading any personal agenda and to do this all with pure motivations to help the world and to the ratzon Hashem? What does the Rav think about this?
ANSWER:
Hashem is in charge over the world. You need to do your share, from recognizing that it is the will of the Creator. But it should be with the understanding that it is not within your hands to attempt to fix or change anything in the world. Rather, your intention has to be that you want to do Hashem’s will. There is a very big difference if your perspective is that you want to change and fix the world, or if your perspective is that you want to do your share and do the will of the Creator.
