Did something extraordinary happen to you today?
 What about you is extraordinary?
 Good Morning!
 One of the items used for the roof of the tabernacle was goat hair. The Torah describes the unique craftsmanship of the women who were able to spin the hair of the goats into material while it was still attached to the goat.
 Although it was kosher to cut off the goat hair first, the women especially chose to spin the hair on the goats backs in order to create a beautiful material for the tabernacle. While the hair is still attached, it has more moisture and it's softer than after it has been cut.
 It was not an easy thing to do and it requires unique craftsmanship.
 The women knew that if G-d has given them a unique talent it must be for the sake of G-d, it must be about G-d's temple. There must be something missing in the temple that this talent can rectify. 
In a similar way, when looking into ourselves and at the various things that G-d has blessed us with, we need to think about how our gifts can uniquely satisfy G-d's purpose in creation. 
This doesn't only apply to the strengths we have within, it also is relevant to the items that we are blessed with. 
There was a chassid of the first Rebbe of Chabad named Reb Tzadok, who had an exemplary Chassidic character. 
Whenever he saw unique success in his business, he said to himself, someone is coming to visit me today. 

The Alter Rebbe would periodically send someone to collect charity, and Reb Tzadok could tell when he was coming based on the profits he was making. 
This is connected with this upcoming Shabbat that blesses the month of Nissan, Nissan means extraordinary miracles. May G-d bless us all to go beyond our nature and with miraculous abundance, inspiring extraordinary joy in our service of Hashem.
