Wow, what a miracle. We all know when things go wrong, the tragedies that we continue to mourn. This year was the 25th anniversary of 9/11 when planes were hijacked and so many people lost their lives. The third anniversary of Israel's war. Similarly, so many tragedies. Today, a tragedy could have happened and instead hashem protected protected our people and so many other innocents. When a hijacker tried to take a plane on its way from Dubai to Tel Aviv, who knows where he wanted to crash and how many lives it would have taken instead. Heroically, Israelis stormed the cockpit, took out the terrorist, treated the injured pilot, safely landed the plane. Miracle after miracle after miracle. The miracles come from above. Hashem shelters us under his under his wing. He provides us safety, security, and peace. But he invites us to be his partners to bring that about. And that's exactly what we saw. Adam sucas the Mishna tells us a person makes his suk the word Adam is entirely superfluous the rash of alter points out it's not superfluous at all it's not the dimensions it's not just the materials it's not the decorations oh says sucaso for hashem to bring that peace that safety that security it requires an adam it's the person who makes the suka we are invited to be his angels his agents to be his partners that's exactly what these heroes were that's what we all are to be his angels here on earth as he spreads out a tent of peace and makes miracles like today he invites us to partner with him in the hala we say every day of sukus we enumerate and we recognize different groups basis each group who trusts in hashem thanks hashem why not just generically say we all see hashem we thank hashem why can't we all say it together the answer is everyone from their perspective has another reason another cause to thank hashem we don't just offer some generic thanks when you just give one big thank you not saying thank you at When you say thank you for this and I thank you for that and I thank you because I personally experienced the other thing then that thank you adds value. Today we all have a big reason to say thank you. Thank you for this miracle. Hashem, thank you to the heroic Israelis who were able to be Hashem's angels on that plane. and Hashem continue to spread us miracles till we could sit in your great suka in your wishing everyone a good moha.
