Why Return?

  לרפואת חי' יוכבד פייגע בת מיכל יהודית בתיה בתוך שח"י

נַחְפְּשָׂ֤ה דְרָכֵ֙ינוּ֙ וְֽנַחְקֹ֔רָה וְנָשׁ֖וּבָה עַד־יְהֹוָֽה׃

 

Let us search our ways and examine, and return to Hashem.
 
WHYYYYYYYY?
 
We follow that pasuk in the Selichos: כי ימינך פשוטה לקבל שבים. B/c Your Hand is outstretched to receive those who return. 
 
We should return not [only] b/c it is the right thing to do, b/c it will save our soul, b/c it will benefit the entire cosmos but PRIMARILY b/c the Ribbono Shel Olam has his [stronger] right hand outstretched to receive us back!!!!  

Is there anything more rude than when someone extends his hand to you and you ignore it??? Imagine what it means that HASHEM has His hand outstretched and we ignore it!!! 😳😳

Hashem wants us back!!!
