Mattos – True to his word
Bamidbar 30:2 " ....he must not break his word "
Rav Elchonon Wasserman the main disciple of the Chofetz Chaim, once encountered a person from Baronovitch, where he had served as Rabbi and requested that he do a favor for a certain person in that town. However the person excused himself saying that he simply did not have the strength to do the chesed. After some time Rav Elchonon met him again. On this occasion he was completely debilitated and fatigued. He poured out his heart to Rav Elchonon about his weakened physical condition, and asked the the great Rav why HaShem had done this to him. Rav Elchonon answered:
“My dear friend, you brought this sickness on yourself. Do you not remember that some time ago, I asked a chesed from you and you said that you did not have the strength to do it. At that moment in the heavenly court a decree went out to fulfill your words!”
Good Shabbos,
Rabbi Cohen
