Jewish tradition teaches that in the merit of the mezuzah God protects our houses. How does this happen? There is no magic involved, and the explanation is relatively simple. Because the degree of God's involvement in our lives is directly proportional to the degree that we are conscious and aware of Him, the more that we are reminded of God's presence, the more of His presence we will experience. The mezuzah is a vital element in creating and maintaining that awareness - and Divine protection is the result.
