A Walmart employee was recognized for helping a mom during a challenging, trying moment. He saw a mother needing help, and instead of simply watching and judging her, he showed her kindness and love. Watch the video to learn how the caring and empathetic man’s small act of kindness made a big difference.

Without question, children are some of the biggest and best blessings we can experience in life. They add so much joy and love, positively changing your life in every way imaginable. However, as every parent will wholeheartedly agree, not every moment with their children is a walk in the park or even enjoyable.

As the clip posted on YouTube mentions, a mother was in Walmart when she experienced one of these less-than-enjoyable parenting moments. She was in the popular retailer when her child, who has autism, had a meltdown. She had difficulty calming her son down, leaving her feeling embarrassed and overwhelmed. But in that moment, someone—Justin—stepped in and lent that mother a helping, loving hand.

So moved by what Justin did for her in that moment, the mother contacted a television station to alert them to his act of kindness. She wrote that he went “above and beyond” and was calm and supportive. She ended her letter about Justin by saying, “his kindness and support meant the world to me during this very challenging moment.”

Justin remembered the situation involving the mother and her son. As the father of a child with autism himself, he had an idea of what she was going through and how she must have felt at that time. He shared that after helping with her son, he gave her a hug and some sweet words of encouragement, telling her that despite how she might be feeling, she was a good mother.

The clip shows how a small act of kindness can make a world of difference to someone who is struggling or in need.

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.”

The daughter of actor Charlie Sheen celebrated her recent baptism and praised her Savior, Jesus Christ. The young woman, Lola Sheen, recognized the big step in her faith with a heartfelt and powerful post on social media. Watch the video of her beautiful baptism.

Baptism is a big, momentous occasion in one’s walk with the Lord. It’s an outward act of what has already taken place in your heart. It’s a move that shows and lets others know that Christ has come into your life and cleansed your heart from sin. It is an act that shows that you have turned away from sin and the old way of living and have chosen to follow Christ.

Lola Sheen, the daughter of actors Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards, has signaled her faith and trust in Jesus Christ. The young woman posted a video of her baptism on social media.

In the video, Lola waits patiently, kneeling in a baptismal pool. A few moments into the video, a man, likely the church’s pastor, stands near the pool and begins talking to the young woman, gesturing and smiling as he does so.

Finally, the big moment arrives; Lola covers her nose and is dipped into the water, much to the delight of the congregation who were on hand to view the beautiful ceremony. What a wonderful sight!

In a caption accompanying several pictures of herself being baptized, Lola shares how Christ loved her, accepted her and changed her life, cleansing her heart from sin when she was at her lowest.

“When I was in my deepest depression, there was a moment where I realized I hit rock bottom,” she writes. “I felt so lost and hopeless, and was just doing my best to make it to the next day. I just accepted my life was going to be like that forever, and thought I would never genuinely laugh again. Until, I met not only my Savior but my best friend, Jesus.”

Later in the post, she mentions how Christ loved her even when she felt she deserved none.

“I began to trust Jesus with my life, when He chose me when no one else did, and loved me when I didn’t feel worthy of love,” Lola writes. “He gave me a light, when I couldn’t find my own and rescued me from the darkness.”

She ends her beautiful, heartfelt post by writing, “I am forever saved by His grace, through Faith. I thank you Jesus for everything, I love you, and I hope you are proud of me.”

Mark 16:16 “He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has not faith will be judged.”

Rych Dorcie struggled with short-term memory loss, making it difficult for him to retain information, such as remembering the content of a book he had just read. One day, while playing a game in a parking lot, he heard a voice urging him to help someone with a flat tire. Initially reluctant, he eventually listened to the voice and stopped to assist. Little did he know that this seemingly small act of kindness would have a profound and unexpected impact on his life, leading to significant positive changes.

Danny Devito shared his joy about being a grandfather. The longtime Hollywood actor could not contain his happiness and delight about the two most recent additions to his family. Watch the short but sweet clip in which the actor expresses his love and joy for his grandchildren.

Being a parent is an absolute blessing from the good Lord. Children are, without question, the biggest and best gift we can receive on this Earth. As every parent knows, once those children enter the world and your home, your life will never be the same.

However, as great as being a parent is, some may argue that being a grandparent is even better. Think about it for a second. Mom and Dad, except when at work, are with their children 24 hours, seven days a week. Parents are around for everything regarding their children, including late nights, tantrums and every other less-than-pleasant moment.

Grandparents, for the most part, do not have to deal with any of that. They get to enjoy all the fun moments as they spoil their grandchildren rotten. Danny, like other grandparents, is also enjoying his new title: Grandpa. In a clip posted on social media, Danny mentions that his daughters have recently had babies and that he loves being a grandfather.

“In two years, my daughters have had a baby each,” he said. “And since these babies have been born, I’m just incorrigible. You got to tamper me down in the joy department, you know what I’m saying?”

He adds that he is very quick when showing photos of his grandchildren.

“In a minute, I’ll take out the phone and show you every picture,” he said. “I’m so lucky. Blessings showered down on me, and I wish it for everybody.”

What incredibly sweet words from a loving, overjoyed and blessed grandfather.

Proverbs 17:6 “Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.”

A quick-thinking corgi saved the day after his owner’s fall. The dog somehow knew exactly what to do after his owner had a nasty fall. Watch the short video to hear about the canine’s heroic actions during a scary, precarious situation.

It’s been said many times before that dogs are man’s best friend. Canines are some of Earth's most loving, loyal and dependable creatures. All of that is true. However, it is so much more than simply being a friend.

Animals are so much more intelligent than most people would like to admit. These cute, furry, four-legged creatures never cease to amaze with their intelligence. In times of crisis, many animals know what to do and act, helping to deliver lifesaving medical attention in some cases. 

That is precisely the case regarding Waldo, the sweetest, cutest little hero. In a clip posted on YouTube, Waldo’s owner recalls how the pup responded during a terrifying incident on a walk, which was part of their morning routine. However, what happened next was anything but routine.

Jess says that she and Waldo were out on their morning walk when she fell down a hill. She describes the horrible situation she was in at the time.

“And I was going down a hill,” she said. “My body went, and my right leg didn’t, and I heard and felt this massive crack. I knew instantly something was wrong. When I looked at my foot, it was very apparent that I needed an ambulance right away.”

She added that her “body was pointing north, and my foot was pointing east.”

That’s when Waldo kissed Jess on the cheek and ran off to find help. Soon after, Jess said that she could see Waldo tugging and pulling on a stranger’s pant leg; he was trying to guide them to Jess.

Waldo’s heroics weren’t done yet. He also ran off and found Jess’s landlord. Because of the cute corgi’s quick-thinking and heroic actions, Jess received the emergency medical attention that she so desperately needed.

Not only is Waldo adorable, but he’s a hero!

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

Why do so many hate the idea of the Rapture? Who planted seeds of doubt? Only the Holy Bible, can be trusted as the TRUE authority on this essential doctrine. Anyone who's read Revelation, knows.... you do NOT want to be left behind... ~ UpTalk

A brave 84-year-old man defended himself during an attempted robbery with a pair of jeans. The elderly gentleman refused to let the criminal do anything to or take anything from him. Watch the amazing clip as the man battled against someone looking to harm him.

Sin has utterly destroyed anything and everything it contacts. Nothing is ever made better after encountering sin; things, including our world, only worsen. As a result, we live in a lost and broken world where the impact and influence of sin are, unfortunately, easily visible all around us.

One of the places where sin is most evident is on the news, where crime, death and destruction are documented daily. Flip to any television news broadcast, and within minutes, you’re bound to see a story where a horrible crime was perpetrated against innocent bystanders. Those people just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one older adult came face-to-face with a criminal, someone attempting to rob him or possibly planning to do worse. However, instead of becoming a victim, the man fought back, using the only thing in his possession at the time, a pair of jeans, to ward off the attacker.

The situation, which appears to take place in a laundry mat, begins with the man trying to fold his clothes. Moments into the clip, a young man dressed in black from head to toe rushes into the establishment and quickly approaches the elderly gentleman.

The criminal lunges at and reaches for the man’s back pocket, likely hoping to find a wallet full of cash. But the 84-year-old was not having it. He immediately turned around and started fighting back, and even landed a few punches to the criminal’s face while holding a pair of jeans.

The criminal momentarily leaves but then returns and again approaches the older man. The criminal in black clothing demands his wallet, but his evil efforts are thwarted as his targeted victim refuses to comply.

Romans 12:21 “Do not let evil overcome you, but overcome evil by good.”

A young woman shared some profound advice that is a helpful reminder whenever navigating one of life’s many storms. Her words are about something simple but powerful that we all need to remember to do in times of crisis. Watch the video to hear what she has to say about enduring a difficulty, and the one thing we can all do that is likely to make a big difference.

We live in a hectic, chaotic world. People are constantly moving, going from this appointment to that meeting to this practice. It may seem that stopping and catching your breath is entirely out of the question because we’re in such a time crunch.

Now, in addition to all that chaos, add smartphones, which makes things like social media within our grasp 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Those apps and platforms are likely to do nothing but lead to even more anxiety and pressure. Living in such a frenzied, hurried state does not give your mind and body much time to relax and recuperate.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Taylor Alesia reminds everyone about the importance of taking and finding rest. She calls it one of the best weapons Christians have when dealing with and navigating storms and valleys.

“So many Christians minimize the weight of this, and it’s something that we need to do weekly, guys,” she said. “Whether you’re in a storm or not, this can’t be underestimated, and it’s the power of rest.”

She adds that finding rest may look different for some people. Perhaps it’s about getting completely away from social media for 24 hours or avoiding people for a time.

Her advice is spot-on. The Lord knew and understood the power and necessity of rest, so He established the Sabbath – one day a week on which we are to rest, worship and concentrate on God.

According to her YouTube page, Taylor aims to use her “platform only for the glory of God.” She adds that she hopes her channel will “encourage and build up the next generation to be bold for Jesus.”

Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”

One young man, a heroic teen, saved an opposing player’s life during a basketball game and is giving Gold the glory. Without even thinking about it, the young man immediately went to work using his skills and know-how to save another teenager’s life. Watch the video to hear about the heroic moment and see their moving reunion.

Life is precious and incredibly fragile. It’s a gift from the good Lord above that must be cherished and handled with the utmost care. None of us are promised tomorrow, the next hour, minute or second. A loved one could be here one moment and gone the next.

A short but powerful clip posted on YouTube reminds us just how precious life truly is. During a high school basketball game in Oklahoma, 16-year-old Randy Vitales, right after scoring a lay-up, a mere three minutes into the game, collapsed and fell to the floor. He had gone into cardiac arrest. Despite the frightening scene, God had placed the right person in the right place at the right time.

Magnus Miller, a member of the opposing team, immediately stopped and got to work, trying to save Randy’s life. According to the video, Magnus is a trained lifeguard who started using his life-saving skills and knowledge.

“I didn’t have any, like, second thoughts,” he said. “I just jumped right in, took control.”

The 18-year-old hero and Randy reunited in a hospital room. It was an emotional moment. Tears were shed, and the two shared a loving embrace.

“There’s no way you were going to die on that court; I wasn’t going to let you,” Magnus told Randy before giving him a big hug.

Despite his heroic, literal life-saving actions, Magnus does not take the credit. Instead, he gives all the glory to God.

“It’s pretty surreal,” Magnus said. “It’s weird, like, hearing someone say that, ‘You saved his life.’ But honestly, it wasn’t me. It was really God just being there for me and being there for him. Obviously, I didn’t go there to play basketball that day.”

Philippians 2:13 “For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.”

A dog knew to bring its sick pup to a vet clinic so it could receive lifesaving medical attention. The mother clearly understood that her baby was ill and needed help immediately. Watch the sweet, heartwarming video of the dog carrying her sick baby to the vet clinic.

Animals are unique creatures placed on Earth by the good Lord. Those cute, furry, four-legged critters are part of His creation. They are all obviously important and serve a purpose. Why else would He have put them on Earth?

Since God created animals, He gave them a certain level of intelligence and know-how. Quite often, the amount of intelligence that animals possess is surprising. Many people would like to think that animals are unintelligent and incapable of understanding and grasping many things. 
However, an endless string of YouTube videos would prove that thought and theory incorrect.

One video posted on social media shows a canine bringing her sick pup to the veterinary clinic for medical attention. The animal, who was in Turkey, is seen carrying what appears to be a lifeless dog in its mouth.

At first glance, the vet, who responded to the concerned mother, thought the puppy was dead. However, that was not the case, as the veterinarian did detect a light heartbeat. The video shows two men attending to the puppy, working to save the animal’s life.

The clip also shows the mother’s concern for her sick baby. A couple of times throughout, the mom can be seen walking up near the table where the sick puppy is lying.

One outlet reports that the animal was warmed up and was later reunited with its mother.
What an absolutely extraordinary, heartwarming act of love! 

Animals are much more intelligent than most people would like to believe.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

It was one of those days when the sky stretched wide, a canopy to a beautiful day in the great outdoors. It is the kind of day where you half expect God to leave fingerprints in the clouds. And maybe He did, right there on the tangled fence as a kindhearted man frees a struggling kangaroo caught in a fence. 

The man saw her from a distance at first. Her legs thrashed against the wire, her eyes wide with a mix of terror and exhaustion. Kangaroos are strong–wildly strong. Everyone knows their kicks can shatter bones, their strength an untamed force of nature. But there she was, caught in a fenceline she couldn’t escape. 

And isn’t that so much of life? We get tangled in things we never saw coming, caught up in snares we didn’t even know were set. 

The man wearing a bright orange jacket stepped closer to the wild animal and knew he needed to help. With a pair of wire cutters in hand, he knew the risk he was about to take but the risk outweighed the potential tragedy for this wild creature. He knew one wrong move, one startled kick from her could have a terrible outcome for himself. But something inside him said this was his moment to show kindness, choose courage, and to be God’s hands in this moment. 

He knelt slowly, likely speaking to her in a calm voice as he stroked her fur and went to work cutting the wires one by one. With each clip of the wire, he worked methodically, careful not to startle her. Her breathing was heavy, her body trembling. First, one leg, then the other. Then came the difficulty of getting her head untangled as well. The last wire fell away, and for a moment, she didn’t move. She lay there dazed and confused before she finally understood she was truly free. 

That kangaroo leaping into freedom is a reminder that no act of kindness is ever wasted. When we step into the small, sacred moments, we reflect the heart of a God who frees the captives and sets the broken world right again.

Colossians 3:12 "Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience."

Sometimes get way off track in our Christian journey … (250B) #toughquestionsforgod #DailyDevotional #Jesus #Christianity

In an interview with Joe Rogan, Mel Gibson discussed Jesus, forgiveness, and mercy. The award-winning actor and filmmaker also talked about his views on the afterlife and why he is a person of faith with the popular podcast host.

Human beings are flawed, imperfect and fallen creatures. The Bible, in Romans, makes our fallen, sinful nature completely clear when it says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” We’re all sinners and in need of forgiveness, grace and mercy.

However, it’s because of those flaws, stumbles and imperfections that Mel is a believer and a person of faith. In a clip posted on YouTube, he tells Joe that when confronting his problems and imperfections, he came to the point where he understood he was unable to change himself.

“And I mean, I don’t think it’s any secret that I am flawed in the fact that I am by nature born an alcoholic, right?” he said. “I did drugs, I did alcohol and there was nothing that could stop me from doing that. Nothing. So, I was really kind of on, you’re on a downhill run. So, I regard the fact that I was able to appeal to something greater than myself to help me and actually stop me from doing that. I think that’s a miracle.”

Later in the clip, Mel mentions what he regards as the best thing about being a Christian and a person of faith: human beings do not have to continue living in sin.

“And the beauty of believing is that, even for your transgressions, you can be forgiven, and you can be redeemed,” he said.

Before the clip ends, Mel adds that Jesus Christ came to Earth and showed everyone how to obtain forgiveness and eternal life.

“I believe that God sent His Son down to tell us, ‘OK, I’m going to ransom you people from your fallen nature, and I’ll give you a roadmap on how to do it,’” he said.

Hebrews 11:6 “And without faith it is not possible to be well-pleasing to him, for it is necessary for anyone who comes to God to have the belief that God is, and that he is a rewarder of all those who make a serious search for him.”
