Encouraging

 By: A Friend

There was a Shliach who often called levi for help, a little donation, a loan, advice etc.
One year he called up Levi before pesach and asked him for a loan, two months later
He called levi again asking him for more assistance.
Levi was happy to give it to him, but he really wanted to assist him in a more impactful way.
He tells this Shliach,
I will send you 25 cheesecakes, I want you to deliver them to your supporters for shavuos, once you finish let me know what happens.

Two weeks later he calls Levi and says BH I do not need your help anymore.
He tells Levi that he was forced to go out of his comfort zone and go meet people and give out the cheesecakes and as a result of that he was able to raise money on his own and since then he is indeed on his feet and self sufficient.
