Have you ever experienced a moment so perfectly aligned it could only be divine intervention? Those aren't just stories that happen to others—they're happening in your life too, if you're paying attention.
Today I share a deeply personal story that transformed my understanding of faith. After easily welcoming our first two children, my wife and I spent ten grueling years trying to have our third. During this challenging journey, our rabbi suggested that praying at the Western Wall in Israel offered our best chance of success. With no travel plans on the horizon, we filed this advice away—until an unexpected, all-expenses-paid invitation to Israel arrived months later.
Following our prayers at the Kotel, my wife became pregnant. When scheduling complications forced us to accept March 14th for our daughter's birth, we had no idea of its significance. Only later, while reviewing photos from our Israel trip, did my wife discover the stunning truth: we had prayed at the Western Wall exactly one year earlier—on March 14th. Our daughter arrived precisely 365 days after those prayers.
What struck me most wasn't just the remarkable timing, but how long it took me to fully appreciate it. We often dismiss as coincidence what might be the clearest evidence of divine presence in our lives. These personal experiences build the foundation of faith that eventually transforms into trust. When life brings you to those inevitable crossroads that test your faith, these memories become the evidence that carries you forward.
Keep your spiritual antenna tuned. Recognize the patterns. Embrace the stories that happen directly to you. They're building your capacity for both faith and trust in ways you might not yet fully comprehend.
