A Charming tale to remind us all that our kindness works miracles.

When the sun sets and stars fill the sky, the square in the little town grows quiet and still. The cool air of distant hills mingles with the sweet scent of baking bread. The moon rises and glows softly. Its the sort of place where miracles could happen.  

David and Jacob live in the same little, ordinary town, but its almost as if theyre from different worlds. David is so poor he can barely feed his family. Jacob is so consumed with staying rich he thinks about nothing but money. But the two men have one thing in common: they both believe that miracles are big, magical things that can only happen somewhere else, to someone else.

But when Jacob wakes up from a nap in synagogue one day, sure that God has demanded twelve loaves of bread from him, all this changes in amazing ways youd never expect.

A delightful, timeless legend based on Jewish tradition, In Gods Hands  tells of the ordinary miracles that occur when we really, truly open our eyes to the world around us.

Rabbi Lawrence Kushner, one of the most widely read authors on Jewish spiritual life, is the Emanu-El Scholar at San Franciscos Congregation Emanu-El and visiting professor of Jewish spirituality at the Graduate Theological Union. Gary Schmidt teaches literature at Calvin College.
