The Most Important Address - Rabbi Shlomo Landau

over 200 years ago there lived a rav in lithuania who was doing really well he was a marbitz terrorist somebody that disseminated torah he was also very successful in business and he was riding the wave but sadly he had a terrible turn of events and he had a tremendous downfall he hit rock bottom he lost his position he lost his fortune and he was literally as he thought at the point of no return he had no one to turn to no one to help him rebuild and he was destitute his family was starving and there was no hope for a future one of his friends recommended that he borrow some money and then he traveled all the way from lithuania to england because you see in england baron rothschild was residing at that period of time and baron rothschild perhaps was the only person that could really get him back on his feet he had no other options he traveled for weeks and months all the way to england and he arrived at the house of the baron the baron welcomed him in and immediately there was a chemistry he was matsuke he found favor in the eyes of the baron and the baron invited him for shabbos and they spent the most beautiful and amazing shabbos basking in each other's company sharing torah insight and wisdom at the end of shabbas baron rothschild sat the rabbi down and he said to him so why are you here what can i do for you and the man opened up his tail of woe and the well springs of tears overflowed and he shared his terrible downfall and how there was no hope the baron was touched and the baron reached into his desk and he pulled out 000 rubles a astronomical amount of money enough to put this fellow back on his feet and keep him for many years the rabbi stood there with his mouth wide open he didn't even know what to do he never had such a large expectation don't worry the baron said i can do it i can afford it i'm happy to help you use it well but before the baron gave him the actual money the baron reached into his desk and pulled out a piece of paper he pulled out a quill and an inkwell and he wrote something on the paper he waited till it dried and he put it underneath the bottom bill of the ten thousand rubles what is that the fellow asked the baron read it the baron said kind of perplexity looks at the paper was the baron's address what's this for the baron shared the baron said you know something you're going to go back home and it's going to be difficult and you're going to use one bill and another building on another bill hopefully you'll never get to the bottom of the stack and you'll be back on your feet life will be amazing but if for some reason you can't get it together and you lose you use the last bill then underneath that is my address you can always come back and i'll help you once again amazing generosity what a kindness of the soul of baron ross when i heard this story something else happened you know we asked the replenish london for everything we asked him to get us back on our feet we asked him for health and for wealth and for meaning and for purpose and for najas and so many different things and the banished london is incredible and kindness he gives and he gives us a stack of hundred dollar bills and the truth is often we use it up and are we going to go back isn't that embarrassing at the bottom leaves his address and says if you need more you can always come back for more karach like the mercy and compassion of the father came to millennium that's how hashem has mercy and compassion he wants us to come back if we find ourselves at rock bottom time and time again the address is there we know the address it's shamayim it's turning to hashem and asking him with an open heart hashem i'm here again and their buddhism has no problem like a father to a child reciprocating and helping us out once again let's use our tafila and rebecca will answer it in the most amazing way
