Welcome to the daily chizuk (encouragement). The Gemara in Masechet Shabbat says one of the questions asked in Shamayim (Heaven) after 120 years: Tzipita l'yeshua, did you anxiously await the salvation? Simply, it means: Did you anticipate and await the Mashiach (Messiah) to save Klal Yisrael from our current exile? But the Beit HaLevi says it also means: Did you anticipate Hashem's salvation for your own personal problems? So long as a person has hope, anything is possible. As the Gemara in Berachot says, “Even if there's a sharp sword on a person's neck, he should continue to pray to Hashem for his salvation.” Nothing is beyond Hashem. The worst thing a person could do is give up hope and stop praying. The Tzaddikim (righteous people) have said that if the medical professionals have given up hope, you shouldn't tell everyone, because as long as they think there's hope, they'll still pray hard, and Hashem will still heal. But if the people have given up, and the patient has given up, how are they going to bring the yeshua (salvation)? Tzipita l'yeshua. We always have to anticipate salvation. It's never too late. The Gemara in Masechet Ketubot tells us that Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi was very ill. He was hovering between life and death, and the entire yeshiva was praying for him. One of the rabbis said, “If anyone tells the people that Rebbi has died, they deserve to be stabbed with the sword.” The Mefarshim (commentators) are bothered. What's wrong if they tell people that the rabbi died? The Shitah Mekubetzet says that if the people find out that Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi has died, they're going to stop praying. But so long as they still think he's alive, they're still going to pray hard, and Hashem could still bring him back. It's never too late. It's never over.
I heard a story last summer from a woman in Great Neck whose two-year-old daughter fell into a pool. By the time she was pulled out, she didn't have a pulse. Her eyes were open. Her face was blue. Her nails were purple. It looked like she had passed away. While her husband was doing CPR, the woman was crying out to Hashem, and she accepted upon herself to dress more modestly and cover her hair. A miracle happened. They got her pulse back. She was rushed by Hatzalah to the hospital. While they were waiting, Tehillim and prayers were being said worldwide. After hours and hours of testing, the doctors came out. Six of the top neurologists had been flown in for this case, along with the head doctor. His name was Dr. Keith Meyer. They said, “Your daughter is a walking miracle.” The entire episode of the girl falling into the water was videoed on a surveillance camera that the doctors had watched. The girl should have been clinically dead for three minutes and ten seconds. Yet there was no trace of any brain damage. She was alive and well. The doctor who was Jewish said, “Till today, I don't know what I believed in. But now I see clearly there is a God in the world.” He said, “There are many children with permanent brain damage who have been underwater for less than a minute. And this doesn't make any sense.” And the truth is, it doesn't need to make sense. Hashem is the Kol yachol. Nothing is impossible. No matter what the situation is, the problem can always be solved. As long as there is hope and tefillah (prayers), the yeshua will come. Have a great day.
