Excerpt from David Ashear’s Living Emunah page 181:
Rav Pesach Eliyahu Falk told over:
There was an orphan boy studying in a yeshiva in the holy land.
His friends were all getting married, but he didn’t have enough money to start dating.
You know a wedding is an expensive thing and so is renting an apartment!
His friends assured him that he and his friends would take care of raising funds. And they tried to raise the money.
But they couldn’t come up with enough money, and the wedding was fast approaching.
Finally, the orphan said. Let’s call him Yossi. Yossi says “Enough. I am going straight to Hashem.”
That Friday morning, he turned to Hashem, at the Kotel- at the western wall.
He turned to Hashem and said ,“Hashem, you know that both my kallah
(finance) and I are both orphans. You are our father. Please help us get married and start a family.
He took out a book of Tehillim (psalms) and read the whole book.
He said: ”Hashem, I’m not turning to humans anymore, I’m only turning to you.’ And he continued to say Tehillim.
A short while later, he felt a tap on his shoulder, and he turned around. “You look distressed, is there any way I can help you?”
Yossi said:
“No thank you. I am talking to Hashem, only he can help me.”
