<p>A husband finds out his wife is pregnant with twins, and his reaction is priceless. The look on his face when he first learns the big news says it all. Watch the short but hilarious and heartwarming clip to see how this father and husband reacted when he realized that two more people would soon enter his life.</p>

<p>Nothing will likely change your life more than becoming a parent. Children need a ton of attention and care. They are also exhausting, and many children often have odd and unpredictable sleeping patterns; parents will be forced to go without sleep for days. Free, personal and alone time becomes an idea of the past once children come into the picture.</p>

<p>However, for all the changes that occur once children arrive, no parent would ever go back to a time without their little ones. Children change every aspect of life imaginable, but for the better. That’s a statement and a conclusion that every parent will wholeheartedly agree with and support.</p>

<p>In <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8EMtOcknUY4">a clip posted on YouTube</a>, the moment one man learns he is about to be the father of twins is captured. It’s clear from the look on his face that he is feeling all kinds of emotions. Who wouldn’t at that point? He seemingly goes from shock to disbelief to fear and, finally, to utter joy, all in a matter of seconds.</p>

<p>While holding a child, the man gets a look at a sonogram picture, and he looks at the camera with a puzzled and inquisitive look.</p>

<p>“What’s that?” he asks. “Twins? What?”</p>

<p>At that moment, he is every husband when they first learn they are having twins. He is in a state of shock and disbelief. Once he finally realizes what he’s just learned, he is overjoyed about the impending arrival of two new lives.</p>

<p>A high school principal went above and beyond to show support for graduating students. The dedicated educator's actions were kind, sweet and completely unexpected. Watch the short but powerful clip to see what the high school principal did that meant so much and caught the graduating seniors by surprise.</p>

<p>Graduation, whether from high school or college, is a milestone that should be recognized and celebrated. It’s a big step in life, marking the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. What happens after someone walks across the stage and accepts their diploma is often unknown and can be frightening.</p>

<p>Those graduates typically have many questions, dreams and fears about their future. That’s why they need to know they are loved and supported as they set out for the future and the unknown. Students who graduated from one high school in Texas know they are loved and supported after what the school’s principal did for every member of the graduating class.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Jmvz-76xLU">A clip posted on YouTube</a> tells of how Jason Mutterer sat down and wrote a note to all 443 members of his school’s graduating class. These weren’t form letters where he signed his name at the bottom. He personalized them, spending hours after work learning about the students. The notes informed each student how they had personally impacted the school for the better.</p>

<p>“So, I wanted them to be able to pull that out and be a reminder that there’s something very special inside of them,” he said.</p>

<p>One student mentioned he teared up while reading the personalized, handwritten card from the school’s principal.</p>

<p>Even during their graduation ceremony, the high school principal, while speaking, actually turned his back on the crowd at one point and addressed the students specifically one last time.</p>

<p>“He made every single one of us feel seen and loved that day,” one student said.</p>

<p>What a beautiful and powerful act of kindness!</p>

<p>A delivery driver had a sweet surprise for three kids running a lemonade stand, and his kindness warms hearts. It was an unexpected move and one that those children will surely remember well into the future. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see what the delivery driver did that will likely have you brushing away a tear or two or three from your eyes.<br />
 <br />
Kindness and generosity are in short supply today. Turn on the evening news or log into Instagram, Facebook or any other popular social media platform, and you’ll soon discover this to be true. Many people seem able to inflict an incredible amount of hurt and pain on one another.<br />
 <br />
Yes, it seems that cruelty, brutality and apathy often reign supreme in society. Who cares what happens to someone else as long as I get mine, right?  However, that is not always correct. There are still kind, caring and loving people in the world. <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@thad.chino/video/7511868204168301866">A clip posted on social media</a> shows this is very much the case.<br />
 <br />
In the video, the delivery driver, who appears to work for UPS, exits his truck and walks up to a lemonade stand being run by three young ladies. Like every child who has ever operated a lemonade business, they are simply trying to quench their customers' thirst while also making a little bit of money in the process. However, the deliveryman is a bit surprised after asking about the going rate for a cup of their lemonade.<br />
 <br />
“Fifty cents, but you can have it for free,” one of the young ladies responds to the driver’s inquiry.<br />
 <br />
“What?” the man says, flabbergasted at the response.<br />
 <br />
He then proceeds to try their lemonade, commenting that their drink is delicious. But he does not simply get in his truck and drive away. Instead, he surprises each of them with a rather large tip, giving each girl $20.<br />
 <br />
What a wonderfully kind and unexpected gesture! Those three young ladies will likely remember that man’s kindness for years.<br />

How God Frees Us from Imposter Syndrome

How has insecurity impacted your dreams and your calling? Do you ever feel like a fraud, you don't deserve your position or role, or compelled to prove your competency? These are signs of "imposter syndrome", a common struggle with the power to sabotage our lives and relationships. (Scripture referenced: Exodus 2-4, 32-33; Deuteronomy 34:10-12; 1 Samuel 9-10, 13, 18; Isaiah 41:10.)

Have you ever thought of yourself as a hope- giver, commissioned to tell God’s story? Do you ever feel weary, defeated or terrified? How do we arise in hope and awaken hope in others? (Scripture referenced: Judges 4:4-9, Judges 5: 6-7) Discussion/Reflective Questions: 1 What resonates with you most in this episode? 2 How has a time when hope faded motivated you or someone you know into action? 3 When have you experienced a time when community has reminded you that you are not responsible for God’s plan all by yourself? 4 How has someone motivated you to act when your hope had become suffocated in the face of insurmountable odds? 5 What does it mean to take hope into your hands? 6 What does the term hope-giver mean to you?

<p>One brave man jumped into action to save a woman from a burning vehicle. The hero risked his life for a complete stranger, pulling her out of a car that was engulfed in flames. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear about and see this man’s heroic, life-saving move.</p>

<p>People today are wrong when it comes to a lot of different things. One of the things many in society are regularly incorrect about is how they define and who they determine to be heroes. Contrary to popular belief, actors and actresses are not heroes. Neither are athletes, and you certainly will not find any heroes occupying the Oval Office or walking through the halls of Congress.</p>

<p>Heroes are individuals who are more concerned about others than themselves. These special people demonstrate that belief through their courageous and selfless actions. They are motivated by their concern for the safety and well-being of others and act with complete disregard for their safety, often putting their lives on the line.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoIC6MZohPs">A clip posted on YouTube</a> captured the actions of a true hero: Nathan Felix. Nathan was driving by when he spotted a vehicle on fire. Instead of continuing, Nathan stopped and offered his assistance, even sprinting toward the scene with a fire extinguisher.</p>

<p>But that is not all.</p>

<p>Once near the vehicle, Nathan worked frantically to pull the 68-year-old driver from the burning car. As he pulls her out of the car, he can be heard telling her they must keep going because it could explode.</p>

<p>One of the paramedics on the scene was grateful for Nathan and praised the young man’s heroic, life-saving efforts.</p>

<p>“Nathan did an awesome job, way above and beyond what’s expected,” he said. “This woman has tomorrow because of his actions.”</p>

<p>In an interview following his heroic move, Nathan said that the woman could have been a member of his family.</p>

<p>“It could have been my mom, my auntie, something like that,” Nathan said.</p>

<p>One musician, Emily Ann Roberts, shared a powerful message about trusting and having faith in God and remembering and counting how He has blessed our lives. Her moving words are a terrific reminder to lean not on our power and understanding but instead to place our faith and trust in Him. Watch the short but powerful clip to hear her words and message that likely hit close to home for many.</p>

<p>The world is way too often a sad, cold and cruel place. Nearly everywhere we look, we are reminded of this fact. Turn on any evening news broadcast or log onto social media, and you’ll see a hundred different ways how this is true. Dwelling and continually thinking and worrying about the lost and hopeless state of the world is enough to drive the sanest, most stable person crazy.</p>

<p>Worrying about things out of our control is not the answer. In Luke, Jesus says exactly this when he mentions that worry will not add a single hour to your life. Instead, cast your cares and concerns about Him, which was precisely what Emily said <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTgkfTYCU4k">in a clip posted on YouTube</a>.</p>

<p>“I could wake up this morning and focus on all the things I wish I was doing instead of the things I get to do and the blessings that God has given me,” she said while picking green beans. “And if I focused on all that for too long, then I’d probably be in a bad mood, I’d be ungrateful and I’d miss the blessings right in front of me, like these green beans right here.”</p>

<p>Later in the clip, Emily mentioned how she used to be ridden with anxiety, which kept her from enjoying and appreciating much. She said a passage of Scripture she came across changed everything.</p>

<p>“And there was a passage of Scripture that I came across that really changed my life forever, and the peace of God and His word changed my life forever,” she said. “The verse is so simple. It says, ‘Don’t worry about anything, but instead pray about everything.’ Tell God what you need, thank Him for all He has done, and then you’ll experience God’s peace.”</p>

<p><em><strong><a href="https://www.godtube.com/bible/philippians/4-6">Philippians 4:6</a></strong> “In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.”</em></p>

<p>A police officer stepped in to help a frightened baby deer and touched hearts in the process. The woman demonstrated concern, love and gentleness for the animal, which was in a dangerous position. Watch the short and tear-jerking clip to see the officer’s heartwarming actions.</p>

<p>Law enforcement officers regularly put their safety and lives in danger. They are often some of the first people on the scene when a horrible, tragic incident happens. When others run away from the scene, they approach it to offer help and assistance.</p>

<p>Officers can never know how any given day on the job will go. What kind of calls will come over the radio? To what situation will they be called to respond?

<p>A police officer in Ohio noticed a baby deer lying on the side of the road.  Instead of driving by and going about her day, she stopped and showed concern for the tiny animal’s well-being. The video begins with the officer talking to the Department of Natural Resources to ask how to best handle the situation and what she should do with the deer. She decided it was best to remove the small deer from its present location, which was just off to the side of a busy highway.</p>

<p>The video captures the kind and caring officer physically picking up the deer. The animal is unsure about the situation and about this person approaching it. Still, the officer reassures it, treating the animal tenderly and with much care as she picks it up and puts it in a much safer location.</p>

<p>“This thing is adorable!” the officer says as she holds the deer.</p>

Watch the short but moving clip to hear Granger’s words about Jesus Christ and about the position He should be in our lives.</p>

<p>Life is not always a fun, joyous and easy-going experience. Yes, there will be instances, circumstances and reasons worth celebrating, but there will also be times when there is hurt and heartbreak. Absolutely no one likes going through trials and struggles. Pain is unpleasant, and we want it to end as quickly as possible.</p>

<p>People will also encounter situations that make them uncomfortable. Some might even argue that feeling ill at ease and dealing with uneasiness is worse than experiencing pain. One reason someone may feel this way is because of conviction and the work of the Holy Spirit. In a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/HAHOsSkzUjA">clip posted on YouTube</a>, Granger shared a powerful message that is likely to convict many who hear his words.</p>

<p>In the video, Granger recalled an interaction with an individual during which the man joked about “everyone needing a little Jesus.”  The man’s awkward and strange comment about Jesus Christ immediately put off Granger and didn't sit right with him.</p>

<p>“I nodded politely, but inside, something twisted,” he said. “A little Jesus? It says so much about what we have reduced him to in this society.”</p>

<p>According to Granger, far too many people have reduced the Savior of the world to a good luck charm, almost like a rabbit’s foot or something else individuals hold onto for superstitious reasons.</p>

<p>“He is not a trinket,” Granger said. “He is the judge of the living and the dead. And He comes into our lives, not just to round it out. He comes to take it over. The real Jesus is no figurine. He is not a part of your life. He is your life, or He is nothing at all.”</p>

<p>A young man ran off the track mid-race for the most heartwarming reason. His move was certainly unexpected, but why he did it will have you reaching for the tissues to wipe your eyes. Watch the short but precious clip to see why the young athlete temporarily exited the track during a race.</p>

<p>Many people enjoy watching sports. Every year, the Super Bowl is the most-watched thing on television. Sports fans love seeing athletes at the top of their game compete against one another. And, for the most part, it doesn’t matter what sport. If people compete against one another for some title or trophy, individuals will likely tune in to see who comes out on top.</p>

<p>Spectators love seeing athletes doing their best, doing all they can to win the game, match or heat. However, no fan wants to see athletes give up before the clock says zero. But a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/VpLz6SdsY8M">clip posted on YouTube</a> shows a runner not giving up but taking a detour during a race, and he did so for the most precious, heartwarming reason imaginable.</p>

<p>The video starts with the beginning of a race at the Special Olympics. The athletes make their way along the track as a crowd of people stands just off the track, using their phones to capture every moment of the race. However, seconds into the race, something unexpected happens.</p>

<p>As the runners pass by, one young man is seen crossing the track, approaching the cameras. Several people yell and tell him to remain on the track, but he doesn’t listen. Instead, he runs over to his mother and kisses her. After showing his mother how much he loves and appreciates her, he returns to the track and continues with his race.</p>

<p>What an adorable scene! When it comes to sports, it’s easy to get caught up in the heat of the competition, but this young man knew what mattered most to him: his mother.</p>
