Vayishlach 2וישלח 202 Overcoming Challenges

Are our challenges real? Yakov tells the people of Shchem if you want to marry Dina, you must remove idols from within you,which means mentally removing the idea of a foreign God from your head, because it’s all just in the head it’s not real that a piece of wood could be a God. So too, all obstacles toward the mitzvahs are not real because the only true reality is really Hashem, so why does He make it seem like there are obstacles it’s whole purpose is only to be like a steppingstone to uplift you to be much better. לקו״ש ל
