Forty-nine years ago, the Jewish people everywhere were on edge. Tiny Israel was at war with her neighbors, and a miracle was needed fast. Thankfully, it happened. In just six days they managed to fight off their enemies, and even make significant advances on many fronts. For the first time in 19 years, Jews were allowed to pray at the Kotel, the remaining supporting wall of the Temple Mount. Even the military strategists called Israel’s stunning victory a miracle.

But remember that it’s not just at times of drama that G-d comes through with His miracles. Rather, ever breath that we breathe and every time the sun rises in the east is a gift from G-d, to be recognized and cherished with love and appreciation.
