Daily Bitachon stories from the “A Life with Bitachon” hotline. This story was called in by Mrs. Schlesinger. She had to make a flight overseas with her family. The flight was taking off at 5:20, and the boarding gate would close 15 minutes beforehand, at 5:05. They were running very late, and they saw that they were never going to make it. Her husband said that he thinks they are going to have to get the next flight and that they’ll have to wait around. Mrs. Schlesinger said, “No! Hakadosh Baruch Hu, the Ribono Shel Olam, is Hakol Yachol. He can do everything and anything! Therefore, even though we’re going to make it there after they close the gate, Hashem can do everything and anything!” With that, they arrived shortly before 5:20. When they came, the security guard said, “Sorry, we already closed the gate! Nothing doing! You’re not going to be able to make this flight, you have to wait for a different flight!” Mrs. Schlesinger was thinking to herself, “Who is in charge?” She started singing to herself, “Hakol Yachol, Hakol Yachol, Hakol Yachol���” She said, “When you go with Emunah and Bitachon, it’s a different set of laws! It’s a different shulchan aruch! It doesn’t make a difference when you arrive!” While she was thinking these thoughts, all of a sudden, she saw that the pilot came out of the plane and told the security guard, “Please let that couple on.” The security guard said, “I’m so sorry, absolutely not. They came too late, we already closed the gate!” The pilot said, “Well, I checked, and it says you’re only allowed to close it 15 minutes before take-off. I checked my watch, and you closed it 16 minutes before! One minute early! Therefore, I’m not going back onto the plane until you let that couple on!” In no time, they were able to get on, with the best service! Read more: Daily Bitachon #1749
