A creative expression of gratitude
by
Monday, January 05, 2015Tzvi's family has been going through hard times and recieving food vouchers from Yad Eliezer to help them get by. His response was priceless:
To the Generous Donors- Thank You!!!
There is a kind of giving whose main goal is win
The honor of others, their deepest respect.
And while such giving is certainly no sin,
It is motivated by the praise that the giver expects.
And then there is giving that is truly 'lishma'
The heart of a Jew fulfilling 'na'aseh ve'nishma'
A chesed that flows from souls longing to give
It makes a huge difference in how others will live.
Like an angel who comes to bestow good straight from heaven
Allowing us to celebrate our shabbos, the seventh.
Your precious gift arrives on a monthly basis
It is like a cool drink in a desert oasis.
I don't have enough words to properly thank
May HaShem credit your spiritual bank
May you be blessed with every sort of blessing
Ad bli dai, no limits or repressing!
My gratitude to you will continue to overflow
And may Hashem upon you every blessing bestow!
