Short Thought - Parasha Vayakel-Pekudei
These two parshiot are full of the accounting of the building of the mishkan. Bnei Yisrael immediately contributed to excess and Bezalel and Oholiav performed their work dutifully as befitting their creative talents. All of the work culminated finally in Moshe, Aharon and his sons coming to do their holy service in the mishkan.
There are 92 verses in Parasha Pekudei the gematria of which is the same as the word אצא = "I will fulfill". G-d told the nation of Israel what to do in order to build the mishkan. They did that, and then they put it to use. Then was no delay and no questions. Everybody just got on with the job and fulfilled G-d's instructions. In the journey of our lives, each one of us should also strive to say "אצא" in response to what G-d's wants of us.
