Mrs. Levin* wanted a break for Shabbos. She wanted a relaxing Shabbos without needing to cook and bake. She didn’t know of anybody who she could go to. She thought to herself, “It’s all up to Hashem.” She said, “One thing I do know. You, Hashem, are running the world, and You’re in charge of everything. Later on that day, one of her friends called her up and said that she had ordered the whole Shabbos from a catering place. There was a mix-up and she got doubles of all the food. She had nothing to do with the extras, so she asked Mrs. Levin if she would want the other half, free of charge. Just like that, they got the whole Shabbos catered to them! Without even needing to pay one penny!! [R’ Zevy Golombeck] Read more: Bitachon #40
