*When You Think You Can't Help At All*

_Yesterday I was approached by a stranger with a predicament I had no way of solving.  I remember in my own life being in similar predicaments and meeting a person a close friend who just gave a heartfelt blessing and somehow that changed the climate in my heart and in and it allowed me to have a whole new perspective and energy to rise above that specific challenge.  Sometimes all you can do for someone else is give them a blessing, but that is SO MUCH._

Good morning!

I want to share with you a letter that the Rebbe wrote to someone.
 I will paraphrase from the Hebrew.  
“I believe this with absolute faith. This is based upon something I have seen in my life several times.  And perhaps what is more significant, it is something that I have heard from others who are reliable.

Most important:

 It is something that comes from our Torah, the Torah of life.  The Torah says this absolutely and explicitly:

This is about a blessing that one person gives another.  

A blessing that is uttered with a faithful and loving heart has power and has impact.
 Sometimes, a blessing has 100% impact and sometimes a blessing only partially alters the situation for the better. 
 
Sometimes a blessing has an immediate impact and sometimes it takes time. 
 Besides the psychological element that it raises the spirit of the person being blessed.  The blessing actually has an impact and does something.”
 That is what the Rebbe writes in this letter.
It is similar to what is written in the book of formation, "Three Things Are Good For The Ear:

A Blessing, Praise & Good News.  

Even when you feel that you can’t do anything significant, you CAN.

Give a blessing from your heart.
