Rav Shimshon Pincus says that
life is about connecting with Hashem. If we are connected, we will
carry out our role and not forget why we are here. If we are connected
we will never lack any of the abundant blessings that we need to be
successful in life.
In the days of Dovid HaMelech there was a
plague and 100 people were dying each day. Dovid HaMelech realized
that death comes from being cut off from the source of life. He needed
to rectify this by reconnecting his generation with Hashem in a
concrete manner. He therefore was Misaken that a person should say 100
brachos every day. The pasuk in the Chumash that hints to this
requirement of 100 brachos not surprisingly talks about a person's need
for Yiras Hashem.
Bracha is from the word Breicha or
reservoir. With each benefit we get from Hashem we need to look up and
acknowledge the source. By doing this we never end up going very long
throughout the day without connecting to that source since we are
constantly on the receiving end of some divine benefit. Our day
becomes filled with tefila and thanks and Hashem is always nearby at
hand. The Rambam says (Brachos 4:1) that brachos are to remember
Hashem, always.
On Revach Lists are two lists of the daily 100 brachos but
calculated slightly differently. In addition it does not include the
numerous Brachos we make when eating snack or going to the bathroom.
The list is for a typical weekday. Shabbos and Yom Tov when we don't
say a full Shemoneh Esrei fall short in their basic count but are made
up through extra eating and other ways. To see Revach List of 100 Brachos Click Here
