Thank you for your beautiful Chanuka video's.

Regarding this last clip. There is something I don't understand. God is alive, and God is rich. Yes!

God will give. Who says?

There are people who go through tremendous suffering, be it livelihood, finding a soul mate, or having children or anything else. Some merit salvation, sooner or later, however others don't. They will always find livelihood difficult, never marry or never have children. Period.

I'm not questioning God's will, or his reasons, but clearly for some people "God will give", does not apply.(At least not in the sense of receiving a salvation for their plight)

I'd appreciate some insight on this.

Many thanks.

  This is such an important question. You are so right that so many people endure profound agony and suffering and despite their prayers are not helped.
  
  But I think that there is another aspect to this, the way the great masters understood Bitachon. Please watch this class:
