We have no one to rely on but our Father in Heaven, and on whom can we rely but our Father in Heaven

We have no one to rely on but our Father in Heaven, and on whom can we rely but our Father in Heaven

All that remains for us is to depend on God to save us; we have no one else to turn to but Him.

("A son disgraces his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, a man's enemies are the people of his own house; the face of the generation is like the face of a dog, the son is not ashamed before his father. And on whom can we rely? On our Father in Heaven." - Sotah 9:15. Also: "And we shall cast our burden upon the Lord, for we have no one to rely on but our Father in Heaven; our eyes are turned to Him, until now Your mercy has helped us." - R. Natan in the introduction to Likutei Moharan. Also: "And the Name of Heaven will be sanctified in public and it will be seen that there is still a God who judges the earth, does justice and righteousness, and we have only to rely on our Father in Heaven and on the righteous of the generation whose very faith..." - Agnon, Elu v'Elu, The Advice, p. 271. Also: "Holy Rabbi! Have mercy on me and save me, for I have no one to rely on but your prayer, that you will pray for me to our Father in Heaven." - Mordechai ben Yechezkel, Book of Tales, Part IV, The Afflicted, p. 85)

אֵין לָנוּ אֶלָּא לְהִשָּׁעֵן עַל אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם, וְעַל מִי יֵשׁ לָנוּ לְהִשָּׁעֵן? עַל אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם !

Definition (Hebrew)

כָּל שֶׁרַק נוֹתַר לָנוּ הוּא לְהִסְתַּמֵּךְ עַל ה' שֶׁיּוֹשִׁיעַ, אֵין לָנוּ בְּמִי לְהֵעָזֵר מִלְּבַדּוֹ.

("בֶּן מְנֻוָּל אָב בַּת קָמָה בְּאֻמָּה כָּלָה בחמותה אויבי אִישׁ אַנְשֵׁי בֵּיתוֹ פְּנֵי הַדּוֹר כִּפְנֵי הַכֶּלֶב הַבֵּן אֵינוֹ מִתְבַּיֵּשׁ מאביו וְעַל מִי יֵשׁ לָנוּ לְהִשָּׁעֵן עַל אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם"- סוֹטָה ט טוּ, וְכֵן:"וְעַל ה' נשליך יהבנו, כִּי אֵין לָנוּ עַל מִי להישען כִּי אִם לאבינו שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם תלויות עֵינֵינוּ,עַד הֵנָּה רחמיך עזרונו"- ר' נָתָן בהקדמתו לְסַפֵּר לִקּוּטֵי מוהר"ן, וְכֵן:"ונתקדש שֵׁם שָׁמַיִם בָּרַבִּים וְרָאוּ שֶׁעֲדַיִן יֵשׁ אֱלֹהִים שׁוֹפְטִים אֶרֶץ עוֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט וצדקה, וְאֵין לָנוּ אֶלָּא לְהִשָּׁעֵן עַל אָבִינוּ שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם וְעַל צדיקי הַדּוֹר שעצם אֱמוּנָה"- עַגְנוֹן/ אֵלּוּ וָאֵלּוּ, העצה,271, וְכֵן:"רַבִּי הַקָּדוֹשׁ! רחם עָלַי והושיעני,כִּי אֵין לִי עַל מִי לְהִשָּׁעֵן כִּי אִם עַל תפלתך, שתתפלל עָלַי לאבינו שֶׁבַּשָּׁמַיִם"- מָרְדְּכַי בֶּן יְחֶזְקֵאל/ סֵפֶר הַמַּעֲשִׂיּוֹת חֵלֶק רְבִיעִי, המנוגעת, 85)
