As we begin the Three Weeks Bein HaM’tzarim period, we are devoting the next two segments to the brachah of “R’tzei” in Shemoneh Esrei. The connection of this brachah to this time period will be clear. This would be a fitting time to place extra focus on this brachah in our daily tefilos, as well as the brachos of “V’liYerushalayim” and “Es Tzemach,” which we have focused on in previous years at this time of year.

Einei chol eilecha y’sabeiru, v’atah nosein lahem es ochlam b’ito.

The eyes of all look to You with hope, and You give them their food in its proper time.
