Nishmas Day 22 | Rabbi Yechiel Spero

He Will Never Sleep

In Nishmas, we make a proclamation – "Hinei lo yanum v'lo yishan shomer Yisrael" — Hashem neither sleeps nor slumbers, He is always watching. There was a young bachur from Bnei Brak who came from a beautiful, frum, loving family. When his mother passed away, his world shattered completely, and his connection to Yiddishkeit began slipping away. He stopped putting on tefillin each morning. He stopped keeping kashrus. But there was one thing he couldn't bring himself to abandon — Shabbos. Even as everything else fell away, something inside him held onto those precious twenty-five hours each week. Then came an invitation that tested his resolve. There was going to be a massive party held on Shabbos. The boy was torn. He desperately wanted to go, so he came up with what seemed like the perfect compromise: he’d set up a trailer where he could technically observe Shabbos while still participating in everything happening around him. When he told his father about this plan, he saw his father’s face fall, as he said: "I've never held you back from anything, but I'm begging you—please don't go to this party." Despite his desperate desire to escape his pain, to get lost in the music and crowds, the bachur made a choice that would change everything. He decided not to go. That party was the Nova festival. The date was October 7th, 2023. The decision the boy made to honor his father, to hold onto that final thread of Shabbos, became the shield that saved his life. Hashem never stops watching over and protecting us . Even when we're barely holding on, Hashem is holding onto us.
