Daily Bitachon stories from the “A Life with Bitachon” hotline. This story was called in by Mrs. Mordowitz. Mrs. Mordowitz said over that in the beginning of last week, she brought two of her sons’ Shabbos suits to the cleaners to get cleaned for Shabbos. She had in mind to pick them up earlier in the week. It was a frum cleaners and on Friday they close at 2:00 sharp. Then she totally forgot about it! It skipped her mind! When her son was get}ng ready for Shabbos on Friday afternoon, it was already 2:40, and her son asked her for his suit! She said, “Oh! I’m so sorry! I forgot it by the cleaners! Let me go right now. But one second, the cleaners closes at 2 and now it’s already 2:40. What are the chances of it being open now? Actually, there are really no chances because they are very makpid. It’s a frum store and they close at 2:00.” Then she said, “One second. I’m going to drive there and the whole way I’m going to play the song, ‘Hakol Yachol.’” As she was driving, she was thinking to herself, “If there would be someone in the cleaners, 45 minutes after they close; a frum cleaners Erev Shabbos; it would take a Rebbeshe mofeis! Am I really deserving of such a mofeis?” Then she said, “One second. I heard many stories on ‘A Life with Bitachon,’ many similar cleaners stories. When a person lives with Emunah and Bitachon and realizes that it’s not people running the world, it’s Hashem; it’s a different set of laws; its a different Shulchan Aruch!” With that, she continued going with that Hakadosh Baruch Hu is Hakol Yachol, and He can do everything and anything. She got to the cleaners, and she saw that the lights were closed. The shutters of the cleaners were all closed. She got out of her car, and she said, “I’m going to go with Emunah and Bitachon. I’m just going to look inside.” She saw that there was nobody inside the store. There was nobody around. She thought, “What should I do now? But, Hashem is the Kol Yachol. I’m just going to walk back to my car and believe that Hashem can do everything and anything.” While she got into the car, all of a sudden, she saw a different car pull up right next to her, and a yid came out. He said to her, “I’m the owner of the cleaners. I saw you just coming away from the store. Do you need anything?” She said, “Are you serious?? I need to pick up two of my sons’ suits for Shabbos.” He said: “I’ll tell you the truth. Something just popped into my head that I should come to the store to drop something off at this exact second. I pulled up and I saw you leaving. I’m so happy to make you happy! I’ll open up the store and one, two, three, take whatever you’d like!” In no time, she got the best service, better than ever!
