This past sukkos, my friend and I took the train to New York City in order to shake Lulav and Esrog with people there. As the sun was setting, we took the train back home.
When we got off the train it was almost dark so we went in the opposite direction of our house. When we realized and turned around, someone near us screamed "hey you guys come here!" Unsure why we were summoned, we went over to see what was happening. As we got closer the person explained that it is almost shkia and they didn't yet shake the Lulav. So it was Hashgacha pratis that we we came off the train in the wrong direction and had a Lulav/Esrog.
In this weeks Parsha, the Lubavitcher Rebbe says how a woman has a stronger belief in one G-d then a man. This is why when most people would have lost faith so close to shkia she knew two bochurim would appear! Hopefully we can learn something from this and implement it into our lives!
Good Shabbos
All the best
