    A report by Israel Hayom journalist Emily Amrousi (http://bit.ly/1lFethX) gives firsthand details of Lapid’s visit to Gilad Shaer’s home and his discussion with Gilad’s mother, Bat Galim.

    On Wednesday, Bat-Galim told Amrousi they have to be able to say that they did everything they possibly could to get the boys back.

    Lapid, replied he wouldn’t be able to look at himself if they didn’t do all they could for the safe return of the teens, continuing with, “I haven’t prayed in six years. I haven’t gone into a synagogue since my son’s bar mitzvah. When I heard what had happened to your sons, I turned my house upside down to look for my grandfather’s prayer book. I sat down and prayed.”

    “When Gil-ad comes back from yeshiva high school on Thursdays, he stands for hours in the kitchen, baking wonderful cakes. I do not know Naftali and Eyal, but if the black magnet took them together – if the three of them together became something that made Yair Lapid pray – I assume that they are as gifted as he is,” wrote Amrousi.

    Your not davening not believing blocks the goods that Hashem sends , just put on a kipa tell Hashem from this minute you will change your derech and follow derech Hashem, so now these three boys are your brothers, it will be a zechus for them, to unblock the existing blockages so the help of Hashem could come upon us.

    These three young men who were kidnapped belong to all of Klal Yisroel and that is why all over the world Jews in all their various derachim are crying and praying for their safe immediate return to their loving families.

    Anyone who tries to veer this Tefilla to a political position, will have to answer on Yom Hadin.
