Daily Chizuk #1380

Those who are struggling with parnasa are constantly praying to Hashem to make things easier for them. It's so difficult for a person to always be behind on his bills. It's so stressful to have to rethink every purchase, even the basics. People love to hear of a segula they could do that will help improve their financial situation. Why does a God-fearing Jew want extra parnasa? Just to take care of his family in a respectable way.
There is definitely a segula that can help with that. Shulchan Aruch writes in the laws of Yom Tov that a person should give his wife and children something special to bring them joy on the holiday. And we also have to give food to the convert, the orphan, and the widow, as well as other poor people.
It is indeed a great segula to take care of orphans, widows, and the downtrodden. The pasuk in the Torah stating this obligation is actually written regarding the holiday of Shavuot.
May we all be zocheh to help others and have Hashem help us.
