It's Never Impossible | Rabbi Tzvi Kushelevsky

Mazel tov! It's a boy. On the morning of March the 10th, Rav Tzvi Kushelevsky, at the age of 88, celebrated the birth of his first child. A boy. Six years ago, the well-known Rosh Yeshiva became a widower at the age of 82. Doctors had told him he could never have children. Rav Kushelevsky remarried. His second wife was then around 50 years old. And now, six years later, Hashem has presented the couple with a miracle. A בן בכור for R' Tzvi. I wasn't for a moment מייאש, because I knew that HaKadosh Baruch Hu was going to help me and all He is doing is giving me this time, teaching me, teaching me, Don't depend on anything else, not on doctors, not on professors, not on anything, because you can talk directly to HaKadosh Baruch Hu. And even if you don't feel it to begin with, it takes you 70 years, but it makes no difference if the whole time, you’re not מתייאש. If the whole time, you keep talking and you keep crying to HaKadosh Baruch Hu, in the end, you will get it. And that's exactly what happened. And I got a beautiful boy. A beautiful boy, a wonderful boy. Everyone should learn these two rules. Number one, Torah is everything, because that's what I was doing. I was learning Torah B’Simcha. Then another thing is I was מתפלל every Tefillah, in every Tefillah, every day. שומע תפילה that’s the עיקר שומע תפילה that HaKadosh Baruch Hu is מקבל תפילות. At that point, I would say: HaKadosh Baruch Hu, please, I know that You are going to give it to me. Please give it to me. The Simcha is that the person who receives what You are giving he is B’Simcha and he knows that You gave it. Nobody else can give it. Nobody else could. And that they all were מתייאש, but I wasn't מתייאש, because I knew these two facts. There is no ייאוש in this world. There is no despair. Never despair of what Hashem can do, and He never despairs of us. Nothing is impossible. Go back and look at all the things in your life that you said, Eh, that's impossible. I'll never do that. It's never too late. It's never impossible.
