A chasid told the Lev Simchah zt’l that he is without children many years after his wedding.

The Lev Simchah told him “Be b’simchah, and there will be a simchah.” If he is happy, he will merit bearing a child.  However, he asked the Rebbe for another solution as it was almost impossible for him to be happy in his childless state.

The Rebbe replied, “What can I do? Hashem loves simchah.”

The chasid worked on himself and succeeded in becoming happy, and his salvation came shortly afterward.

Today is Rosh Chodesh Adar – a time to increase our simchah!
