A Rabbinic text from the ninth century declares that every person is accompanied, at all times, by a procession of angels crying out, 'Make way, for an image of the Holy One is approaching!'
I've read that often and love it, but I admit it took a while for me to realize that it does not say "Make way for the Holy One is approaching." No. It says, "an image of the Holy One is approaching." An image...that's you...that's me...that's our best friend and our worst enemy and any stranger on the street.
Now that is righteous...and not to be pondered, analyzed or debated, but accepted. Again, we go to God for we cannot self-will acceptance which, when done right, is of God.
We let go and let God's perfect will enter our Soul unfettered by our reasoning mind.
Thank you.
