Kind Customers Left Waitress Massive Tip And Directions On How To Use The Money

One woman in New York City got a big surprise when the kind and generous customers she waited on left her a massive $500 tip.

Kindness can take many different shapes and forms. Whether it be an unexpected word of encouragement, a simple gesture like holding the door for someone or a friendly wave or head nod, that kindness can brighten someone’s day, week or year. 

However, some people may be able to unexpectedly bless others financially. Clair Howell, a waitress in a Manhattan restaurant, was on the receiving end of a $500 tip, according to a video posted on YouTube.

The tip, as the video explains, came on a bill of $232. Clair, in an interview explaining her unexpected and large tip, was beaming.

“I’m just, like, in total shock,” Clair said. “Like, like what? And I’m looking around, and they’re gone, totally gone.”

But the $500 tip wasn’t the only thing written on the bill. The customers had written a message for Clair. It was directions on how she was supposed to spend the $500. 

“GO SEE MERRILLY!” the note read. “SIT IN THE ORCHESTRA!”

Clair said that during the meal, she talked to the customers and asked about their plans. She asked them if they were taking in one of the plays on Broadway. 

They were, in fact, headed to a Broadway play. They were seeing “Merrily We Roll Along.”

Clair, following the directions given to her by the generous customers, went online and bought a ticket to the show that night. The tip covered the price of the ticket and then some. 

Instead of using the money elsewhere, Clair said that she felt she had to follow the guidance from the customers and buy herself a ticket to the show.

There are still kind, generous and thoughtful people in the world. Most, like those who tipped Claire, don’t seek recognition for their kindness either.

Sweet Cashier Spots Mom In Distress And Acts

A sweet and caring Dollar Tree cashier spotted a stressed-out mother and offered her some help.

Children are one of life’s biggest blessings. There is nothing like being a parent and welcoming a new bundle of joy into the home. Children add much joy, happiness and love to a parent’s life. They make life a fuller and richer experience. However, at times, children can and do add stress to life.

Like everyone else, children get tired, cranky and annoyed. However, unlike everyone else, and as every parent knows, children often make it entirely clear when they are tired, cranky and annoyed. Everyone within a mile radius of the children will know their mood. 

That’s what happened to one mother who was shopping in a New Jersey Dollar Tree. The mom’s hands were full as she was trying to check out. To make matters worse, her daughter was upset and in the middle of a meltdown, according to the video posted on TikTok.

The cashier gave the mom a hand. She picked up the young lady and kept her occupied, letting the child scan her mother’s items.

As the cashier holds the child in one arm, she grabs items with the other. The child then focuses all of her attention on moving the item across the scanner. 

The mother was grateful for the cashier’s sweet and caring move of unexpected kindness.

“She instantly changed our moods for the better,” according to the text in the short clip. 

The mother also added that while she never posts such things on social media, she couldn’t help but shine a light on the cashier’s loving move. 

“I never post stuff like this, but I just want this woman to have the world,” the text in the clip reads. “THANK YOU!”

What a simple but sweet and loving move that, at that moment, likely meant the world to a mother with an upset toddler.

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”

Dolly Parton Calls Fan Battling Cancer And Serenades Him

Legendary entertainer Dolly Parton reached out to one of her biggest fans, who is battling cancer, and talked for several minutes and even sang to the sick man.

Showing someone else kindness and love doesn’t cost much. Most of the time, it’s completely free, with the only expense being a few moments of our time. But those moments could mean the world to someone in need. A simple, unexpected act of kindness could put a smile on someone else’s face or change their outlook on life.

Dolly Parton is no stranger to kindness and love. Throughout her career, she has gone out of her way to help her fellow man. Dolly’s talent, as evidenced by a career spanning decades, is recognized and adored by millions. Despite all her success, Dolly has never stopped showing others love, kindness and care.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Dolly calls up and speaks to a Utah man dying of cancer. The man, who is lying down in bed, has a massive smile on his face as he speaks to the “Jolene” singer. 

Dolly begins the call with the sick man by thanking him for what he has done for her.

“Well, LG, I really thank you for shooting out the word that you’d like to talk to me,” Dolly says. “I’m just happy that we got to kind of have our journey together in this lifetime. I always want to make people happy with my music and with the things I do and the things I say. I’m just happy to know that I’ve touched your life in some way. So thank you for honoring me with that.”

The man responds that Dolly and her music have been a “huge help” to him. 

Dolly ends the call by telling the man that she “will always love” him. She then sings her hit song for him, changing the lyrics to include the man’s name. 

Dolly Parton is an absolute class act!

Ryan Seacrest Gets Emotional Talking About Giving Back, Helping Sick Kids

Celebrities might be well-known, but they are also still human. In this video Ryan Seacrest gets emotional talking about giving back and helping sick kids.

Ryan runs a foundation with his parents and sister called the Ryan Seacrest Foundation. Although he is known for his incredible hosting skills on television, Ryan also has a heart for sick children. There is a place called Seacrest Studios that is inside of Children’s Hospital. Ryan tears up talking about seeing the challenge on a mom and dad’s face who are walking through their child’s sickness. Ryan shares that a boy told him it was going to be a great Christmas because he “got approved to get new lungs.” Perspective is everything.

A young boy named Payson Inkley comes into the studio and talks for a moment to encourage other kids to make their day better. Ryan gives the boy dressed in a button-down shirt and tie a hug and promotes his skills. 

The child beams with excitement. Ryan then reveals that he is going to be the new host for Wheel of Fortune. He is very complimentary of Pat Sajak and shares his excitement to work alongside Vanna White, calling her a “national treasure.” 

Ryan tells of the importance of giving back when you are given some success in life. He desires to help others find happiness, too. 

It is so valuable as believers in Christ to love others well by seeing them, giving your time to them, blessing them financially, and praying for them. Even if we do not have the physical resources that Ryan has, we have our faith in Jesus to come alongside those in need and love them well. 

“Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7

Little Boy In Wheelchair Befriends Stranger In Store After She Teaches Him To Do Wheelies

A young woman’s simple act of kindness and love toward a little boy in a wheelchair resulted in a friendship and changed that child’s life and outlook.

Life can deal some crushing blows and devastating circumstances. It’s not always a fair experience. In fact, life seemingly gives some people more than their fair share of hardships and trials. But our attitude during and following those trying situations can have a massive impact on others.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a woman, Hannah Hutzley, who suffered a catastrophic injury that landed her in a wheelchair, forged a relationship with a child also in a wheelchair. They were able to bond and connect over wheelies in a hardware store.

“Just this little faint whisper of a ‘Hi,’” Hannah said. “So, I look over, and there’s just this sweet little kid, with these little curious eyes, and I was, like, ‘Oh, hi.’ And this is the first time I’ve ever seen a kid in a wheelchair in person. He, like, whispers again to me, ‘Do you know how to do wheelies?’”

Hannah answered the young man, mentioning she knew how to do them. She then began popping wheelies in the middle of the hardware store, much to the sweet young man’s delight.

After the wheelies in the hardware store, Hannah and the young man have gotten ice cream several times. They even have wheelchair races and play “choo-choo train.”

The young man’s dad mentioned that Hannah and her kindness have had a massive impact on the young man. He wants to help around the house and wants to go out and experience life, refusing to let his wheelchair stop him. His father said that his son wants to be just like Hannah.

Later in the interview, Hannah mentioned how the young man has impacted her and changed her perspective on life. 

“It’s, like, you have this really awful terrible thing happen to you, but then you see it in the eyes of a kid. And they just, they don’t see it that way. They just see it as, ‘Oh, cool. You have a wheelchair, you know, you’re like a car. You’re like this toy.’”

Ephesians 4:32 “And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.”

Kind Firefighter Drove More Than An Hour To Return Lost Purse

A kind and caring firefighter went above and beyond the call of duty and went out of his way to return a woman’s lost purse to her.

The world is a sad, lonely and broken place. Sin has done nothing but cause damage and destruction. People who are hurting and struggling are all around us, looking and searching for any reason to be hopeful about the future. That’s why a small, simple act of kindness can change someone’s outlook and perspective. 

A clip posted to TikTok shows a small but extraordinary act of kindness where an off-duty firefighter drove over an hour to reunite a woman with her purse, according to Sunny Skyz.

In the black and white Ring video, the man approaches the door and asks if the woman can hear him. She responds, disregarding his question and asks if he has her bag.

The man does have her bag and asks if she is Georgia. 

She is overjoyed at the welcomed and unexpected news.

“I could cry my eyes out. How have you got my bag?” she says.

He then responds that he found it at a gas station. 

The two then go back and forth about where she wants him to place the purse outside her house. 

About halfway through the clip, the firefighter explains what caused him to drive over that night to return the lost item.

“Do you know what? I was going to leave it till tomorrow morning,” he says. “But I remember me ex lost her bag on a night out, and she was under stress. And I just thought, ‘You know what, I’ll just go and drop it off now.’”

The woman is moved by the man’s kindness, honesty and empathy. She is heard either crying or trying to fight back tears. 

But before the clip ends, the woman wants to find somewhere to repay the man for his kind act. She offers to give him some money, asking for his banking information. 

Instead, the man has another idea.

“No, just pay it forward,” he says. “Just do something nice for the next person.”

What a tremendous and heartwarming display of the kindness and honesty that still exists in the world.

Dwayne Johnson Surprises Kids And Grants Their Wishes

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is one of the biggest movie stars on the planet, and he spent some time with nearly two dozen children, helping to make their wish and dream a reality.

Sadly, life is not a fair experience. Some people are given more than their fair share of obstacles and hurdles. Not even the youngest and most vulnerable members of society – children – are safe from the sometimes horrifying realities of life. 

Children suffering unimaginable situations and dealing with life-threatening illnesses are near and dear to Dwayne’s heart. That’s why, in a video posted on YouTube, The Rock spent time meeting with and putting smiles on the faces of some youngsters.

For more than 20 children who visited the Universal Studios theme park in Los Angeles, California, their wish was to meet The Rock. One child called herself “his biggest fan.” 

While the children were on tour of the theme park, Dwayne surprised them, joining them on the tour. He interacted with the children, telling jokes, giving them hugs and just putting smiles on their faces.

As the video points out, Dwayne was only expected to spend an hour with the children but ended up doing much more than 60 minutes. He hung out with them for five hours that day. 

But this is far from the first time that The Rock has teamed up with Make-A-Wish to do some good for a group of deserving kids. As the video mentions, Dwayne has worked with them for more than two decades.

“These are kids and the cards that they are dealt. They didn’t ask for it, but they’re playing these hands as best they can,” he said. “You know, I’m getting emotional. These kids are so strong.”

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is a big man who has starred in some of the biggest blockbusters of recent memory. It’s clear from his touching displays of love and kindness that this big man has a big heart. 

Philippians 2:4 “Not looking everyone to his private good, but keeping in mind the things of others.”

Mat And Savanna Shaw Surprise Teacher Who Lost Husband With Sweet Performance

Two gifted musicians, Mat and Savanna Shaw, unexpectedly showed up at a woman’s door who lost her husband to cancer and treated her to a sweet, emotional performance.

Life can deliver some crushing body blows. These devastating and unforeseen circumstances can knock people down and change their world in an instant. But, during these times of hurt and pain, a little unexpected kindness can uplift and encourage someone struggling. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Mat and Savanna Shaw, along with a team of journalists, surprised Martha at her house. Martha, a music teacher, lost her husband to cancer. Mat and Savanna wanted to support her and show her some love during this trying time. 

Martha could not believe who had darkened her doorstep. 

“You’re Mat and Savanna Shaw!” Martha says.

Then it’s hugs all around, as Martha tells the father-daughter duo how much she loves and appreciates their music.

Later, Matt explained that he had heard about Martha's willingness to volunteer and the recent loss of her husband and offered her his condolences.

“And then we heard about the loss of your husband recently,” Mat said. “I’m so, so sorry to hear about that.”

Mat added that Martha had inspired him, and he and Savanna wanted “to come by and visit for a minute.”

Later in the clip, they move into another room, stopping near a piano. Mat and Savanna treat Martha to her own, private concert. But the song they chose to sing is not just any song, as Mat explained.

“The song that we wanted to sing for you, we were just talking on the way here, it’s really, really special to us,” he said. “Because it’s the song that started this whole crazy music journey for us.”

Martha gets emotional, brushing away tears from her eyes as Mat and Savanna belt out the beautiful lyrics. 

What a wonderful and touching moment for a woman and a family hurting and going through a most difficult time.

Family From Ukraine Overwhelmed By Gifts From Secret Santa

A family of five from Ukraine who were forced to flee their home country due to Russia’s deadly and unprovoked invasion were in tears after receiving gifts from Secret Santa.

Christmas is the season for giving and brightening someone else’s life with kindness and love. Americans, by and large, have been blessed. However, other people around the world may not be as fortunate as the average American. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, a loving and beautiful family of five from Ukraine was surprised by a gift from Secret Santa. He gave the family thousands of dollars for food and clothing. 

Valera, Galina and their three children made their way to the United States after their home was destroyed during Russia’s invasion of their country. Their home and all their possessions were demolished by a Russian tank, according to the clip.

The clip’s description states that the family had many friends and relatives killed in Russia’s invasion of their small country. 

With the help of a translator, the family expressed their sincere appreciation and gratitude for the gifts. Galina, the wife and mother, a nurse in her native Ukraine, was overwhelmed by the generosity. Throughout the clip, she continuously wiped and brushed away the tears from her eyes. 

In addition to expressing their gratitude for the gifts, the family was also thrilled to be in the United States of America, away from the deadly fighting. 

“It’s good here,” Galina said. “It’s quiet, and it’s peaceful.”

She added: “And here, there are no rockets flying, so that’s a great part of it.”

But before the clip ended, the journalists were treated to a musical performance from one of the family’s three children. The young man put his skills on the accordion on full display.

Luke 6:38 “Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, crushed down, full and running over, they will give to you. For in the same measure as you give, it will be given to you again.”

Surrendering to God's Will! Part Six

Surrendering to God's Will! Part Six "Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." Matthew 6:10 In times of uncertainty, when the road ahead seems foggy, or when we encounter obstacles that shake our faith, let us remember that surrender is not a one-time event but a lifelong journey. It is a continuous process of aligning our will with God's, day by day, moment by moment. It requires us to pause, reflect, and recalibrate our hearts toward His purpose. Each day brings new opportunities for surrender. Take a moment to examine your life and identify areas where you may be holding on tightly to your desires, plans, or ambitions. Ask yourself if there are areas where you have struggled to fully surrender to God's will, where you find it difficult to let go and trust His guidance. Psalm 37:5 says, "Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." In those moments, breathe deeply and surrender those areas to God in prayer. Ask for His strength to release your grip on control and seek His discernment in aligning your desires with His. Trust that God will faithfully unveil His divine plan for your life as you surrender, stirring purpose and joy within your soul. Dear brethren, surrendering to God's will is not always easy, and it is normal to face resistance within ourselves. But when we choose to surrender, we are met with the abundance of His grace and the peace that surpasses all understanding. In surrender to God's Will, we experience true freedom, unburdened by the weight of our striving and embraced by the boundless love of our Heavenly Father. Amen. Proverbs 16:3 says, "Commit your works to the LORD, and your plans will be achieved." Amen. Prayer for Today! May God's grace illuminate your path, offering reassurance and a sense of unwavering faith at any moment. With each breath, may you feel God's presence surrounding you, empowering you to withstand life's journey with unyielding resolve and endurance. In Jesus' name. Amen. https://maglife.org/

Dwayne Johnson And Jimmy Fallon Pay For Shopper’s Christmas Presents

Two of the biggest names in the world of entertainment, Dwayne Johnson and Jimmy Fallon, surprised shoppers with a little bit of unexpected kindness and love.

The Christmas season is a tremendous time of year. It’s a season of holiday traditions and time spent with friends and family. Also, during the Christmas season, people seem to be unusually kind and generous, willing to help and give to others.

In a clip posted on YouTube, comic Jimmy Fallon and action star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson visited the world-famous toy store in New York City, FAO Schwarz, and surprised shoppers with an unbelievable act of kindness and generosity.

But before that, the two stars had some fun with shoppers in the popular store. As the clip shows, Jimmy and Dwayne worked and controlled the arms of a toy robot and provided the machine’s voice. Most shoppers were good sports, willing to play along with Jimmy and Dwayne’s jokes and hijinks.

Eventually, after messing with the shoppers, Dwayne would appear and surprise the unsuspecting shoppers. Their reactions were normally utter shock or laughter. However, one young lady was completely unphased by Dwayne and Jimmy’s appearance. She wanted to see the real Maui, not the guy who only provided the cartoon character’s voice.

Before the clip ended, and after a dance performance on the massive piano, “The Fast and Furious” star announced that all their Christmas gifts were on him. 

“So, I know that you guys haven’t bought your gifts yet,” Dwayne said. “So, I have my Acorns debit card. You all come with me. Gifts are on me right now. Let’s go down to the register.”

The crowd of shoppers react with shouts of happiness and glee following Dwayne’s generous announcement. 

The clip ends with Dwayne wishing everyone happy holidays and a Merry Christmas.

Acts 20:35 “I have showed you all things, how that so laboring you ought to support the weak and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, how he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Secret Santa Surprises Young Mom Recovering From Injury After Falling Off Horse

A young mother of two recovering after suffering significant injuries was surprised at home with a sweet and touching gift from an anonymous donor. 

The Christmas season is a terrific period of time, filled with friends, family and often, way too much food. For those struggling physically, financially, emotionally or spiritually, the holidays can be an unpleasant time of year. That’s why some people will dig a little deeper into their pockets to help their fellow man, bring a smile to someone’s face and ease their burden a tad.

In early October, Kailey and her husband, Cameron, were riding horses when she was thrown from the animal, hitting her head on a fence post on her way to the ground. As a result of the fall, Kailey sustained a devastating series of injuries, according to the video posted on YouTube.

The wife and mother of two was initially admitted to the intensive care unit. Doctors learned that Kailey had suffered three broken vertebrae, a broken foot, a concussion as well a brain bleed.

Doctors have also told her that she is not to bend, twist or lift anything, including her children, for 6 to 8 weeks. So, to take care of the kids, Cameron has been off work. 

As the group of journalists knock on the door, Kailey answers the door. While she recounted her painful set of circumstances, Kailey remained positive and upbeat. She appeared hopeful, not down in any way. 

Then, when Kailey receives the surprise gift of $2,000 in gift cards to help with groceries, the young mother of two loses it. She lets her guard down. 

“That’s so sweet,” Kailey says through tears. “Oh, I’m sorry. That’s, that’s amazing. That’s going to help us so much. Thank you, guys. This is so awesome.”

Kailey’s road to recovery will be several months, requiring the use of a back brace, a walking boot and physical therapy. 

While Kailey and her family are experiencing a trying, likely financially frightening period, someone who did not want any recognition stepped up and helped the family. May God greatly bless that kind and generous individual!

Acts 20:35 “I have showed you all things, how that so laboring you ought to support the weak, and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
