This story has been called in by a very, very chashuva Rebbe by the name of Rabbi Yoni Sarf. On Friday night he realized that he needed a Shabbos goy. He walked outside, but there was no one in sight. He was thinking, “It’s late at night, what’s the chances of finding a non-Jew at this hour in my neighborhood?” But then he said, “That’s with teva, with laws of nature. I’m going to go with bitachon and emunah that Hashem’s the Kol Yachol, and within six minutes, I’m going to find a Shabbos goy.” He was looking around, and within six minutes he saw a non-Jew. He asked, “Is there any chance that you’re able to come to my house? I need a favor done.” The non-Jew said, “I’ll tell you the truth. I’m happy to do it, but I charge money for my services.” Yoni Sharf said, “OK, I don’t think right now it’s nogaya. Sorry, have a nice day.” And off went the non-Jew. Then Yoni thought, “So, now what am I going to do? This time I’m going to go with emunah and bitachon that I’ll find someone in three minutes, but this time with bitachon I want him to be nice and friendly and do it free of charge.” He said, “Hashem, you’re a Kol Yachol, You can do everything and anything.” Within three minutes, all of a sudden, he sees a non-Jew walking in his direction, a nice friendly non-Jew who asked, “How can I help you,” with the best service, for free, better than ever.
