R’ Avraham Shmuel Binyamin Sofer zt”l (Ksav Sofer) would say:
“Why is Krias Shema read in the evening and repeated again in the morning? ‘Night’ represents dark and difficult times and ‘day’ represents good and pleasant periods. In Shema, a Jew accepts upon himself absolute submission to the yoke of heaven. The recitation of Shema in the evening and again in the morning is a message that under all conditions, regardless if things are good or difficult, pleasant or gloomy, a person should never forsake his attachment to Hashem.”
A Wise Man would say: “Everything is within your power and your power is within you.”
