Shloima Samet was traveling with his family from America to Eretz Yisrael. They packed up their suitcases with everything they needed, as well as many items that other people had asked them to bring along. When the suitcases were packed, they realized that all their suitcases and all their carry-ons were way overweight! They said, “What should we do? We only have one eitzah, to go with Emunah and Bitachon. We’ll believe that Hakadosh Baruch Hu is Hakol Yachol, and that they won’t give us any issues or problems whatsoever.” When they arrived at the airport and they were weighing their suitcases, the attendant said, “Do you know that every single one of your suitcases is overweight? Your carry-ons are also overweight! You know that this is going to cost you a lot of money? It’s going to be over 250 dollas” The Samet family said, “Hashem! Who is the one in charge if they should give us issues or problems? Hakadosh Baruch Hu, You could make it that they’ll let us go scot-free without making any issues or problems!” While they were being mechazek that Hashem can do anything and that there’s only Ein Od Milvado, no one else and nothing else exists, all of a sudden, a Yid nearby asked them if they need any help. They told him that a lot of their suitcases were overweight, and the airline wanted to charge a lot of extra money. The Yid told them, “Well, tell them that I have a ticket that allows me to bring three suitcases and I’m only bringing one! You can put some of your suitcases in my name.” They asked the attendant if that is okay; he has a right to three suitcases, and he’s letting us use his other two. The attendant said, “Sure! Let me take his ticket and his name. I’ll put your suitcases under his name.” In no time, she said they don’t have to pay one penny! With that, they were able to go on the plane with the best service! As heard on ‘A Life With Bitachon’.
