Windshield Wiper Miracle

When our Chanukah Chagiga meeting was over we stepped outside and beautiful snow met our eyes. We all got into the car, but as we were trying to clear the back window, the windshield wiper didn’t work. I got out of the car to wipe and fix the wiper. After I fixed it we set out on our way to drop everyone off. As we were driving down the road, a massive blue light flashed and filled the whole sky. We thought it was lightening; until it happened a second time. A telephone pole sparked and fell several hundred feet in front of us. If we hadn’t taken those few seconds to wipe the back window, we Chas V’shalom could’ve been a lot closer to danger.

A Chanukah Miracle

During Chanukah vacation my family was going to drive in to Chicago for my cousins Bar Mitzvah. Our plan was to leave for Chicago Wednesday night. As it got closer to Wednesday my mother decided we should leave on Thursday instead. Wednesday we were all packed and ready to go the next morning. It was Hashgacha Pratis that we didn’t go on Wednesday night. In the middle of the night my mother went to the hospital and had a baby boy. The baby was six weeks early.

Nes Chanukah

Last week I was talking to a group of girls about the Nes of Chanukah. I told them that sometimes on Chanukah we get so caught up with the Chanukah parties, the oily latkes, doughnuts, gelt, and presents, that we sometimes forget about the whole purpose of Chanukah, and the whole story behind it. After briefly telling them the story of Chanukah I told them that each of us have miracles that happen in our lives daily. But we get distracted by so many things, that we don't realize and see the miracles. Together we listed an endless list of miracles that happen ever day of our lives. I told them that one night of Chanukah (or two, or four, or if they want , eight) they should sit in front of the candles and just stare into them and think of the Hashgacha Pratis and miracles that are in their lives. I strongly suggest that you should do the same. May we all see the HP and Miracles in our lives clearly!
Happy Chanukah!!!!

Enjoy your latkes!
