There isn't a such point as happenstance. There are no random occurrences. Hashem is intricately involved with the managing of the earth.

We continue on with Bitachon related ideas from Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s commentary on Tehilim. In chapter 148, which we are saying each day, David Hamelech is searching into your creations of the heavens and the earth to praise Hashem. He starts off with הַ֥לְלוּ־יָ֨הּ ׀ הַֽלְל֣וּ אֶת־יְ֭הֹוָה מִן־הַשָּׁמַ֑יִם הַֽ֝לְל֗וּהוּ בַּמְּרוֹמִֽים׃ Praise Hashem with the heavens, from higher above all the angels, all of the hosts, the Sunshine, the moon, each of the celestial beings, The heavens high over, the drinking water over the heavens… And what is their praise? יְֽ֭הַלְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם ה׳ כִּ֤י ה֖וּא צִוָּ֣ה וְנִבְרָֽאוּ׃ וַיַּעֲמִידֵ֣ם לָעַ֣ד לְעוֹלָ֑ם חׇק־נָ֝תַ֗ן וְלֹ֣א יַעֲבֽוֹר׃ That God commanded and established them, and He set them up there for good. He built a set rule, that shall by no means change. That's what we comment the moment a month over the moon, that there is the cycle from the Solar, the cycle on the moon. Almost everything that's during the heavens is basically static . Then he goes on to praise Hashem over the earth. Let us praise Hashem with the deaths, the fireplace, the hail, the snow, the smoke, the winds, the mountains and the valleys, the trees, the animals, the crawling creatures, the birds, the kings, the ministers, younger boys and young women, aged Guys and lads. And afterwards it suggests, יְהַלְל֤וּ ׀ אֶת־שֵׁ֬ם ה׳ כִּֽי־נִשְׂגָּ֣ב שְׁמ֣וֹ לְבַדּ֑וֹ ה֝וֹד֗וֹ עַל־אֶ֥רֶץ וְשָׁמָֽיִם His identify is earlier mentioned alone, His glory is on the heavens plus the earth. Rav Chaim points out that there’s a big difference in how we take a look at the heavens and earth. Regarding the heavens, it states, God commanded and created them, but concerning the earth, it suggests His identify is exalted without end… Why the primary difference? He claims it’s as the generation in the heavens was a a person time development. The Sunlight is developed once, the moon is established at the time. Of course, it suggests that God carries on to pump Electrical power into generation, and that He will make (not manufactured ) The good luminaries, but in our eyes, they're static. They do not change. On the other hand, what's down to the earth is constantly renewed and refreshed. You'll find new horses, new bears, new bees…points are continually changing. Each of the goods during the heaven was produced with a certain objective and a finite amount of money, but to the earth matters are consistently becoming recreated and rejuvenated, because This is when anything transpires.
David Hamelech got out of his bed and was completely balanced when he gave around and worked on that architecture. Rav Chaim Kanievsky adds that David Hamelech stated this Mizmor when he handed around the scroll Using the architectural designs. It was his Thanks for finding away from his sickness. With that context, we have the ability to understand why It really is referred to as Mizmor Shir Hanukat HaBayit L’David . He wrote it for them to sing at the particular Hanukat Habayit, which he wasn't heading to make it to. But he spoke about his sickness because what obtained him out was The reality that he needed To accomplish this. Furthermore, a pasuk With this chapter claims, זמרו לה׳ חסידיו /Sing to Hashem, the pious kinds, והודו לזכר קדשו and thank Him. First sing, then thank Him. Most time It is thank initially and afterwards sing, like it states, ט֗וֹב לְהֹד֥וֹת לה׳ וּלְזַמֵּ֖ר לְשִׁמְךָ֣ עֶלְיֽוֹן׃ “It is really great to thank You, and You then sing a music.” As it says, Shiru Lo, Zamru Lo/sing music. Commonly, initially you thank Hashem for what took place and Then you definately sing the tune. But listed here he states the pious kinds, they sing the song even in advance of it takes place. David Hamelech was by now singing the tracks of his salvation, just before it occurred. And he provides many reasons for getting out of his sickness. “ Can I thanks After i'm just dust? (which suggests, Am i able to thanks when I'm lifeless?) ” Then he says, “ Am i able to say above Your truth?” These reasons refers back to the two things that an individual is here on the planet for: to thank Hashem also to condition His Oneness. David was working with these as a motive to pull him away from his sickness. This is important. When another person is in difficulty, an individual can Truthfully and sincerely say, “ Hashem, get me from issues mainly because I however Possess a mission to accomplish. I continue to have anything to perform. Get me out of this. I must praise You. I need to fulfill my mission.” This was David Hamelech’s key of Mizmor Shir Hanukat Habayit L’David. Yet again, we will only recognize this with Rav Chaim Kanievsky’s history and context (determined by an unknown Midrash, which I looked for. It seems to be in an obscure Midrash, rather than inside the regular daily bitachon Midrashim). Have an exquisite day.
Employing this idea to reframe functions within our daily life is really a key to imbuing our daily life with bitachon, as this story illustrates:

I would've claimed, ‘I didn't kill you. There's a Creator of the globe, that operates the whole world, and He's sitting down from the heavens choosing which i must have lived, and you should not. I do not know why He decided that, but I really need to thank Him that I was saved. He made the decision that that is for me. He chose you to be the messengers to avoid wasting me. I'm not liable.’” He ends the article with, “ But it is a disgrace. I am not spiritual, and so I haven't got that comfort and ease.” Rav Wolbe commented on this, that While this gentleman was not spiritual, Hashem would reward him for sharing that excellent assumed with the globe, that people who are spiritual have a specific comfort when things which they don't recognize materialize, simply because they know that there is Anyone significant up there that is earning the decisions. There's a Tale that occurred lots of (about sixty) decades ago. A young rabbi (who sooner or later grew to become Rav Michel Yehuda Leftkowitz) was Studying in Kollel. On one Friday evening, he was shifting a considerable kettle stuffed with hot h2o in his kitchen. He someway he slipped around his young daughter, as well as the boiling, sizzling h2o spilled on her. She inevitably handed clear of her injuries. He was of course terribly distraught simply because he seemingly killed his have daughter. He couldn't be comforted right until the Chazon Ish advised him the next: Picture you ended up walking and an angel took the pot out within your fingers and spilled it. You would not truly feel dependable, as you failed to do it. The angel did it. ” And he explained that that was what occurred. “ You did not do anything. The angel did it, and so You're not dependable.” And this is why, as we often say, religion and Emunah cognitions enable us cope with daily life's issues, irrespective of whether it's sensation guilt for what we did, using accountability for what we did, or simply knowing what other people did. As We've quoted before, the Ben Ish Chai says that when a kid, or whomever, will cause some mishap on Friday afternoon, we can't blame the kid, since the Satan is making use of him as his messenger, to induce disturbances and wreak havoc in a very dwelling on Erev Shabbat. Once more, they're all Emunah cognitions that help us, and we ought to be grateful for that. And we don't have to state, I wish I used to be spiritual, due to the fact, Baruch Hashem, we're spiritual.
