Mrs. Newhouse* from England takes a particular course that’s given by a non-Jew. One year, this instructor said to her, “You know, I just checked the weather forecast for your holiday, Purim, and it’s going to be snowing and raining. I guess you have to cancel your Purim plans or push it off. What day are you pushing it off to?”  She said, “No, no. We don’t push things off. We do it in the snow, we do it in the rain, we do it in the heat, we do it no matter what.”  The instructor said, “Wow, that’s not the way we work. By us, we only do things if it’s convenient. You Jews are loyal; you have such devotion.”  What a Kiddush Hashem! Read more: “Bitachon and Chesed United!”

Hashem can make everything work out.” This non-religious person came, and the kids were fighting the whole seudah nonstop. Despite that, the guest said, ��Wow. I’m so impressed with your children. They are so well behaved. You have such a nice family! We have no family, we live for nothing. We die for nothing. You have a purpose, you have children. They’re so sweet!” [R’ Zevy Golombeck] Read more: What a Amazing Nation!
