The Donation That Opened the Gates of Shamayim

Hashgacha Pratis | March 06, 2026

For two long months I was suffering intensely. I was desperately looking for a job, and when I finally arrived for an interview for a job that seemed suitable, it didn’t seem to pan out. The employer never called back. I tried everything; I connected with anyone who might help, I begged for an opportunity – but I came up against a stone wall. Despair percolated within me. Then I decided to take a daring step: I set up a monthly donation toward the dissemination of the Hashgachah Pratis newsletter in an entire neighborhood. What happened afterward was simply unbelievable: On the very day that the newsletter was distributed, my cellphone vibrated. It was the news I had been waiting for — the positive response! I was accepted for work and was promised all the conditions I had dared to ask for! Hodu laHashem ki tov! May you continue to increase kevod Shamayim.
