My brother got an email a little while ago. My brother, Rabbi Simmon Jacobson. I want to read it to you. Very, very special. Dear Rabbi Jacobson, I'm a musician that lives upstate New York. I usually play secular music, secular rock music. rock music. Last Thursday, I was doing a performance in a bar in Pikipsy as Israel started attacking and destroying Iran's nuclear weapons, even though nobody in the bar looked Jewish. During the performance, I announced what was happening and I asked that everyone should pray for peace in their own way and make a commitment to do an act of kindness to help make the world a better place. Then I played the song shalom Then I played the song shalom and I explained the meaning of the song that there should be peace. Shalom. The next night, this was Thursday. The next night, Friday night, I had a strange dream. Rabbi Label Groner, the secretary of the Labavich Reba, calls me and he says in the dream that the Rebba wanted to thank me because what I said in the bar inspired a Jewish woman who was in the bar to light Shabas candles and her candle lighting in Pikipsy and her candle lighting in Pikipsy helped bring extra blessings into the world. It protected people in Israel and it helped the Israeli air force succeed. I wake up shabas morning and I thought even though it was a nice dream it's probably nonsense because I'm not important enough person to get a message from the labavba in a dream today Sunday morning which means yesterday giml Thomas the rebart site I get an email from a woman in pikipsy she looked me up on social media and she says to me
