'אל תתן לעובדות לבלבל אותך'
‘Don’t let the facts confuse you’
One rainy day, to the bad luck of my son, the chsson, his cellphone fell into a stream of rainwater. He picked up the device, gave it a hard shake and tried his luck, but the screen was gone.
He bought a new screen and replaced it on his own because he was talented with his hands and saved the installation fee. But the new screen lit up with Chinese writing that was illegible. Having no choice, he went to the expert technician who told him there was nothing he could do, and even if he repaired it, he would have to restart the phone and all data would be erased.
My son came home disappointed because all the numbers that he needed were on this device and he had no backup. I asked him how much he was willing to pay for the material, and he said, “Hundreds of shekels”. I told him, “Let’s agree on a hundred shekel.” And he agreed.
I closed the door to be in private, and asked Hashem that He publicly sanctify His Name, since the boy knows that there is no chance that this will be fixed in a natural way, and he is willing to give of his money to tzedakah. This is how I sat and requested from the bottom of my heart that He would make the chosson happy. Ten minutes later, I managed to turn the device off and back on, and this time it turned on completely normally. I called the chosson and asked him to check if the device was missing anything, and he, with tears of excitement, could not believe his eyes! Everything was working and in order as if nothing had happened!!!
I took the hundred shekels to give to tzedakah, and I told him, “My dear son, remember forever and do not forget, that even if the whole world and all the experts tell you to give up hope, remember that by HaKadosh Baruch Hu there are no limitations and no despair, and he who trusts in Hashem, kindness will surround him, and he will be guided by hashgacha in a supernatural way, just do not be confused by the world around you!!!”
