ONLY ONE DAY OF REPENTANCE · Sukkat Shalom B'nei Noach

Rabbi Nachman teaches,

“Repent one day before your death” ( Avot 2:10 ).

Yesterday and tomorrow are man’s downfall. Today you may be aroused towards G-d. Don’t let yourself become discouraged because of what may have happened yesterday or what may happen tomorrow.

No matter where a person stands, there are always reverses. Many people become discouraged as a result and stop putting any real effort into their devotions.

That is why you must “Repent one day before your death. “

“Before your death” is your entire life. During your entire lifetime, you may be worthy of only one day of repentance.

This one day is more precious than all treasures. For what does a person gain from all his worldly effort? Nothing remains of your entire life other than this one day when you return to G-d.
