"Hashem Gave Me Back My Licther"

Sometimes we feel like we are all alone in the world. It is times like this when Hashem often sends us a clear message that he is still with us.  The following story happened while I was there so I can vouch for it being a true story.

A tzedakah agency held a Chinese auction.  They spoke to the women who won the silver candlestick about her claiming the prize.  She said that she had just separated from her husband and he had taken back her lichter.  By winning this prize, she felt that Hashem had given them back.

Some people see the glass as half empty, they hear this story and get upset at the man who took it away.  I like to look at the glass as half full, and see that even when a person hurts another, Hashem caused some measure of healing.
