Daily Bitachon #1722

Reb Moshe Blomberg davened every morning in the same shul, so he kept his tefillin bag in shul. This shul is very makpid to lock up when the last person leaves. There is a night kollel there, and there is one man specifically in charge of closing the lights and locking up. There are just a few people that know the combination. One night at midnight, Reb Blomberg suddenly remembered that he had a bris the next morning, and he needed to leave to the bris very early, before the shul would be open. Therefore, he needed to get his tefillin bag now. He said to himself, “Uh-oh. The shul doors are already locked, its 12:00. I remember that every time I’ve tried to get in in the past, it was always locked. Who should I call now at 12:00? Everyone is already sleeping!” He walked towards the shul and he saw the lights were off. He was thinking, “What should I do now?” Then he said, “One second. Who’s in charge of making sure that the door of the shul is locked? Do you think it has to do with the person who turns the lock and the knob and now the door is locked so that’s why I can’t open it?? The only reason why a door doesn’t open is because Hakadosh Baruch Hu doesn’t want it to! Well, I believe that Hashem is Hakol Yachol, and He can do everything and anything! Therefore, I’m just going to go with Bitachon that everything is going to work out!” With that, he went to the shul door and he opened it up! Just like that! Something that never happened to him before! Many times in the past, he tried to get in but it was always locked! This was the first time that he was able to open the door. In no time, he was able to get his tefillin bag! As heard on ‘A Life With Bitachon’.
