Abandoned
If there is no place outside of Him, where does G-d go to hide?
"…I will abandon them and I will hide My face from them…"
(Deuteronomy 31:17)
.As though I don’t see their troubles
(Rashi)
If G‑d would abandon any person, how could that person continue to exist?
The answer is that G‑d abandons a person by treating him or her as just another creature of a natural order, subject to the haphazards of systematic patterns that He directs.
He hides Himself within that natural order, so that He will appear oblivious to their cries. As though He has ceased to exist.
So that the moment your heart turns back to Him, you discover He was always there.
That’s when life returns to its miraculous order.
In truth, it is all miraculous.
G‑d is in everything, whether we see Him or not.
(Likutei Sichot vol. 34, p. 194)
