Daily Bitachon #1817

Daily Bitachon stories from the “A Life with Bitachon” hotline.

This story was called in by Mrs. Walter. She was having a lot of company for Shabbos. She called the fish store to see if she could order a fish for all her guests. The store apologized but said they were out of fish. It was erev shabbos, and she was trying to figure out what to do, because she really wanted to serve fish. She knew how they would all enjoy it, but the fish man said there were no more fish. Then she said, “One minute, just because the fish man doesn’t have any more fish doesn’t mean a thing. Hakadosh Baruch Hu is a Kol Yachol. He can do anything and everything. So for Him, there’s no shortage.” While she was being michazek with emunah and bitachon, she heard a knock on her door. It was a person from a tzedaka organization that had hakaras hatov to this lady’s husband, who gave a lot of tzedaka to this organization. He brought them a fish platter! Not only did it have enough fish for her whole shabbos company, but it had so much fish and different types of fish, and it was set up royally, that it was better than she could have done herself!
