After Shacharis on Wednesday morning at the main shul in the Ramat Elchanan neighborhood of Bnei Brak, HaGaon HaRav Yitzchak Zilberstein led the shul in reciting Mizmor L’Todah to thank Hashem for the election results.
“Rabboseinu say that in the future all the korbanos will be revoked except for the korban todah,” HaRav Zilberstein said. “But the korban todah can’t be revoked, it will always exist.”
“Hakadosh Baruch Hu is showing us a bit of a ‘beaming face,’ [‘פנים שוחקות’] so come let us say together Mizmor L’Todah. We can’t bring korbonos so at least let’s recite Mizmor L’Todah.”
Rav Zilberstein then proceeded to recite Mizmor L’Todah with great emotion passuk by passuk as the congregation recited after him.

I noticed on Hamodia.com that on Monday in Stamford Hill a bus was travelling fast through an intersection and it crashed into a pole and two girls got seriously injured.
Please daven for Chana Leah Bas Toibeh and Toibeh bas Necha Tzorta Leah.
Hashem should Bentsch the entire Klal Yisroel and we should all merit that we should not ever be involved in an accident.
Thanks for sharing!!
Harav Zilberstein is a living example of how the Litvaks definitely have the kinyan on Torah. But for expressing emotion through melodious song, Chasidim have an edge. I wonder if there probably ought to be a difference between tehillim for rachmona litzlan a choleh and for a simcha.
