Summary
In episode thirty-one of the 48 Ways series during the Omer, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe teaches Ahavat HaMakom — “love of God” and loving His presence in the world. Building on the previous way (being loved by others), this way focuses on reciprocating God’s endless love by actively seeking and appreciating His kindness, wisdom, and gifts in every aspect of creation. Rabbi Wolbe explains that the commandment to “love Hashem your God with all your heart” is fulfilled by investigating and recognizing what God does for us constantly — from the miracle of every breath and the beauty of a sunset to the intricate design of the human body and the galaxies. The more we immerse ourselves in God’s world and truth, the more natural and profound our love for Him becomes. He stresses that love is about giving and connection: just as we love those who do good for us, seeing God’s constant benevolence makes love for Him inevitable. Key points include: use unstructured personal prayer (hishtadlut) to thank God, ask, and share dreams; every pleasure can be traced back to its Divine source; God resides where there is peace and love, not strife; and loving God’s “place” means loving His creations, His Torah, and the path of peace. Rabbi Wolbe encourages daily utterances of “I love You, Hashem. Thank You,” turning ordinary moments into expressions of love and connection. _____________ Recorded in TORCH Centre - Studio A on June 7, 2022, in Houston, Texas.
