Floating Candle 2" White 20ct

The Story of the life of Maran Hagaon Reb Yaakov Yisroel Kanievsi, Zatzal ...At length they reached the border, an empty open field with watchposts on either side with soldiers waiting to shoot at the slightest suspicion of movement in the silence. They crossed this field as quietly as they could, without any idea where they were going, hoping that the guide they had hired knew what he was doing. Suddenly the line of bochurim stopped. Their hearts stood still. What's going on?" someone asked. "Sh--Sh!" came the answer from up and down the line. From the dampness in the air it seemed like they were near some body of water. If they listened closely they could hear the rippling sound of a river. They started moving again. Within a few moments they crossed to the other side and were quickly swallowed up into the thick tangle of a forest. Now the tension grew even greater. Any cough or sneeze, any groan of fatigue or sound of pain from a stubbed toe had to be stifled, however much it hurt them... The Steipler dragged his tired feet along behind, trying to follow another bochur in the darkness. His thoughts were wrapped up in a passage from the Gemara and this gave him strength and comfort... In this way the night passed, slowly and painfully, and so did part of the next day. When Mincha time arrived he found a place by a tree and davened, oblivious to the occasional shots and the constant fear of death... He davened with such absorption that he did not notice that the others in his group had moved on and left him completely alone, with no idea of where he was...Such was the incredible devotion of the Steipler Gaon, zatzal, to Torah and mitzvos, a sense of devotion so total that it enabled him to concentrate his energies solely on the service of Hashem, day in day out, oblivious to whatever circumstances he found himself in.
