R’ Yitzchak*, a Rebbi from one of the Southern cities in Eretz Yisrael, shared that his son went on a trip with a friend. During the trip, they left their bags on a bench. When they came back, the bags were stolen. In their bags were many important things, passports, wallets, money. His son came home very down. He was devastated. R’ Yitzchak started telling his son: “Don’t give up, believe that Hashem can return it.” That Shabbos, he spoke a lot about Emunah. He kept telling his son that Hashem is Hakol Yachol. He told him to think positively, that anything could happen. Hashem could make the person who took the bags regret his actions and return it. He told him that any positive thought can bring a tremendous Yeshuah, so they should not give up. Motzei Shabbos after he came home from Shul, his daughter told him excitedly that someone found their bag. Everything was in it! All they have to do is go to the police station and pick it up! He said that realizing that thoughts of Emunah can turn around, even a seemingly hopeless situation, was an even bigger Metzia than finding the bag itself!

R’ Meshulem lent someone a few thousand Shekel. The person was supposed to pay him back in a week or two. The week or two went by, but he didn’t hear from him. R’ Meshulem tried reaching out to the person but he kept pushing him off. Before he knew it, it was already three months later. All his bills came in at once: his water bill, his electric bill, his Arnona (property tax) bill. He didn’t have enough money to pay them. He knew that if that person would pay him back, he would have the money for it. He didn’t know what to do; he had tried so many times… Then he realized, “One second, who’s going to pay this bill for me, is it me? It’s the Ribono Shel Olam! Instead of relying on people, I have to rely on the Ribono Shel Olam. If the Ribono Shel Olam wants, He could pay the bill right now.” A few hours went by, and the person called him and said, “Baruch Hashem, I worked it out and I’m coming right now to you to give you the entire sum.” He saw the tremendous power of “Habote’ach BaHashem, Chessed Yesovevenu.”

R’ Yitzchok* and his family were moving from Yerushalayim to Afula. They had a problem. The furniture in the apartment where they had been renting belonged to the landlord and the new apartment where they were moving to wasn’t furnished. He was going to have to buy everything from scratch: appliances, furniture…. He was learning in Kollel, and he only had $1,000 to spend. He told himself that just like Hashem took care of him in the past, Hashem will also take care of him now. One day, someone called him up and asked him if he was moving to Afula. He said, “Yes, why?” The man said, “I’m moving, and I’m buying all new furniture and appliances. If you’re interested, you can buy all my furniture and appliances from me for just $1,000!”
