Complete trust in Gd

Hi,

"The meaning of 'You shall be complete with HaShem your Gd' is that we are to dedicate our hearts to Gd alone, and to trust that Gd alone engineers all and knows the truth of all future events. From Gd alone we should seek the future, from His prophets or from His pious ones, meaning the urim v'tumim."

וטעם "תמים תהיה עם ד' אלקיך" שנייחד לבבנו אליו לבדו, ונאמין שהוא לבדו עושה כל והוא היודע אמתת כל עתיד, וממנו לבדו נדרוש העתידות, מנביאיו או מאנשי חסידיו רצוני לומר אורים ותומים. 

(Ramban to Devarim 38:13)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
