Random Acts Of Kindness

Many members of the cute, furry and four-legged community came together to help make one man’s milestone birthday a day he and his family will never forget.

As people get older, birthdays are occasions most like less and less. In fact, those are days on the calendar a good majority of people would like to skip over altogether. However, everything is always better with dogs, even days that remind us that we’re getting older.

A clip posted on YouTube mentions that one family in California took an unusual route when celebrating their father’s 100th birthday. They threw the man a dog parade! And the four-legged community and their two-legged owners responded in a big, big way.

Nearly 200 dogs joined in the surprise dog parade for Dr. Robert Moore. The video points out that Robert was overjoyed by the surprise lineup of dogs, petting every dog that came by to wish him a happy birthday.

Not only did Robert greet every member of the four-legged community by petting them, but he also knew every breed of dog he encountered!

One of Robert’s daughters, Vickie Mallon, was overjoyed by the turnout.

“This is probably the biggest thing that’s happened in our family that’s given us the most joy,” she said.

But the surprises did not stop with the seemingly endless line of dogs ready to meet and greet Robert on his big day. The clip points out that attendees brought “gifts, flowers, balloons and posters.” 

So, who were these people that came out and helped bring a smile to Robert’s face? They were total and complete strangers.

“They were mostly strangers. They were,” Alison Moore, Robert’s daughter said. “And it just, it makes you feel wonderful about your community that people would come out and do that for your dad that you love so much.”

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.”

A gym owner in Memphis, Tennessee, used a cup of coffee to change one man’s life after he found him sleeping in his car.

Life is a series of choices and decisions. Those actions yesterday will result in today's and tomorrow’s circumstances. However, while that may be true, everyone needs a little love and grace at times.

Roderick Duncan is a gym owner in Tennessee. He is a big proponent that change doesn't happen overnight. He also believes that our choices ultimately guide the direction of our lives. That’s why when he found 24-year-old Bryan Taylor, a homeless man living in one of his vehicles, he took a different approach, but not at first. 

As the video posted on YouTube points out, Bryan showed up repeatedly, sleeping in Roderick’s car. Eventually, instead of kicking him out, the gym owner tried something else entirely. He got to know the young man over a cup of coffee.

The video mentions that Bryan had endured a difficult childhood and had a drinking issue. This time, Roderick showed Bryan love and helped him get his life back on track. He bought him some clothes, took him to job interviews and gave him a place to sleep on his couch. 

However, over the course of their relationship, Bryan has messed up. He’s failed to live up to Roderick’s standards or violated some rules. But Roderick continues to show the man grace and love.

“Some people need more than one chance, you know?” Roderick said. “Some people, it takes, it takes a while for most kids to stop bumping their heads.”

Because of Roderick’s continued patience, love and grace, Bryan’s life has dramatically improved.

“I got a job,” Bryan said. “I got more confidence. I got a smile on my face.”

Because of a single cup of coffee and a lot of love and patience, Roderick is helping Bryan turn his life around.

1 Corinthians 16:14 “Let all that you do be done in love.”

This is a classic day trip from Dublin covering two great locations in one day. You will leave for Glendalough in the morning for a visit to the early Christian monastic settlement in Glendalough. There will be time for a morning walk down to the Upper Lake also before you depart for Kilkenny. Leaving Glendalough you will pass over the Wicklow Gap and continue thru the village of Hollywood.

One young man goes to great lengths to ensure people he doesn’t know have a happy birthday.

For adults, birthdays are not all that exciting or even welcome. It’s simply another reminder that, yes, we are getting older. But when it comes to children and birthdays, they have a decidedly different idea of the annual celebration. Most young children eagerly look forward to the day marking their entry into the world. 

One young man, 5-year-old Lukas from Wisconsin, knows children enjoy birthdays. That’s why he puts in the effort to make their big day special, according to a video posted on YouTube.

Lukas creates birthday cards for every child in his Wisconsin town. As the video mentions, the card-creating action originally started out as a community service project. However, Lukas has continued making birthday cards. 

Sam Smith, Lukas's mother, states that her son wanted to keep doing the activity. 

“And we got our hours in that we needed, and he just wanted to keep doing it,” Sam said. “It was like happy mom heart. I was so excited that he was like so loving and wanted to give back.”

Birthday card creation has since morphed into a hobby for young Lukas. It's a hobby that has helped to brighten the day of one little boy.  

Megan Novak asked for a Lukas-made birthday card for her son Eddie. She is moved by the 5-year-old’s mission to bring happiness to others. 

“It just shows that he wants to spread happiness,” Megan said. “And just share some joy with the other kids.” 

While Lukas may only be five years old, he is showing the recipients of the cards in his Wisconsin town, and everyone else, that spreading kindness and happiness is as simple as putting a few stickers on a piece of construction paper. 

Good job, young man! 

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.”

Hundreds of former students returned to their alma mater to say “thank you” to a beloved retiring high school educator, singing with the teacher one last time.

Teaching is a noble and important occupation. Whether it be at the elementary, middle, high school or college level, those educators are shaping and molding the minds of the next generation. Throughout a teaching career, educators can and do affect the lives of thousands of young people.

Jim Stanley, a high school chorus teacher in Georgia, is retiring after 30 years in the profession. However, before he put away his chorus book and sheet music for good, Jim came up with an idea. He invited former students to come and sing with his current students. It would be a musical send-off for the teacher, according to a video posted on YouTube. 

Instead of just a few alums returning to sing with Jim one last, the invitation reached hundreds of former students. Jim never envisioned turnout would grow to be so big.

“I put it out there, went ahead and scheduled it,” Jim said. “Thinking I maybe might be able to get 20, 25 kids come back and I was going to have them sing with my current kids on our final concert of the year. Then a couple of alumni actually established a Facebook group, which grew and grew and grew from week to week.”

The students who returned weren’t just those who still live around the Georgia high school either. 

“They came from as far away as Canada, Texas, Chicago,” Cindy Harter Sims said. “People stopped everything in their life so that they would have a chance to say, ‘thank you’ to Jim Stanley.”

What a terrific show of kindness and love that students spanning decades returned to say goodbye to a dedicated educator.

Grab a tissue, and watch one sweet momma dog thank a kind stranger for feeding her starving pups! This one is a tearjerker!

There are a hundred things that we don’t know about this quick Twitter clip. Where is this taking place? Is it a rural setting or in a city on the other side of the world? Who is the woman that we see from behind, her violet sweater and blue headscarf the only identifying pieces of information we can collect? Was she equipped with plastic gloves when she came upon the canine family? Have they been abandoned? Countless are the questions we might like to ask.

However, none of that matters because we catch the most important bit of information without knowing all of the extras. Watch this sweet woman offer a beautiful measure of kindness to a hungry dog and her pups. 

The lady puts food, though it’s hard to tell what kind, in a box or feeder for the pups. There look to be five little guys and gals. They immediately begin eating and enjoying the blessing, but the mother of the adorable litter does not eat.

Instead, after the pups begin eating, she walks around to the other side of the lady benefactor to offer her a gesture of appreciation. The pooch places her paw on the lady’s hand and seems to be expressing her gratitude for the nourishment that might save her babies. The lady pauses and lovingly places Momma’s head between her hands, petting her and demonstrating her empathy. She understands how the thankful momma dog feels because she may be a mom or caregiver herself.

While studies and statistics may not prove it to be true, dogs certainly do seem to be among the most loyal and loving of God’s creatures. This one certainly must be! It just goes to show that love is often understood even when there is no common language—sometimes even when there is no common species.  

“Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.” Psalms 112:4

A judge pays a man’s fines after he walks five miles to court with no money to his name. It could have been easy for Daniel Murray to blame his problems on life circumstances. Instead, he took responsibility for his own actions, and in his humility, he was given a gift. 

Daniel is no stranger to parking fines. In fact, he had seven of them. He showed up to his court date a little out of breath and visibly sweating through his shirt. He was respectful to the judge and accepted the consequences that led to all of his parking fines. The total cost of his fines was $250, which Daniel didn’t have. Then Daniel asked a question, “Is there any way that this can be deferred for a little bit? I’m in a little bit of a financial situation,” he said to the judge. 

The judge then asked Daniel what he could pay today. That’s when he learns Daniel has 92 cents to his name and walked five miles to make it to court on time. The judge realized Daniel could use a blessing. The judge then says, “I got a letter this morning from a man named Frank J. Demacio. He wrote, “Now I am on unemployment due to a conflict, but I am enclosing this to add to your fund.” The judge then went on to explain he started the Filomena Fund, which was named after his mother. The funds are used to help people in dire financial situations like Daniel’s. 

Frank sent in $25.00 in cash, and the judge wanted Daniel to use it for an Uber. Daniel was blessed and humbled. At first, he felt like he didn’t deserve it, but the judge insisted on blessing Daniel with a small gift. But then the judge abundantly blesses Daniel. He used the Filomena Fund to cover all of Daniel’s fines and to get his car back too! 

You can tell by the look on Daniel’s face and his demeanor he felt it was undeserved but he was grateful. Before Daniel departs from the court, the judge asks him to pay it forward and show kindness to someone else in need. Kindness is like that. When we show mercy, kindness, and compassion to someone, it is then abundantly multiped and creates a ripple effect in your community. Let’s this judge as a kindness compass that points us to someone in need of help. What an inspiring story! 

“Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you,” Ephesians 4:32.

And Inspirational Video about the Prodigal Son

One man, whose wife is a high school principal, used her school’s prom as an occasion to give her a sweet surprise.

For high school students, proms are a big, big deal. There are tuxes, fancy and expensive dresses, after-parties and sometimes even limousines. Within the last couple of years, simply asking someone to prom has become an event. Promposals, where people come up with elaborate and extravagant ways to ask someone to the annual dance, have exploded in popularity. 

A video posted to social media may not be the most elaborate promposal in the world, but it’ll still melt your heart. In the video, a man wearing a tux stands off to the side of a set of double doors and holds a bouquet of flowers. Seconds into the short video, a handful of people appear, likely they know what is coming and want to witness the sweet gesture. 

Then a woman pulls the door open as the high school principal, the man in the tuxedo’s wife, walks through the door. She thought she was simply on hand to chaperone the fun-filled night for the school’s juniors and seniors. 

However, she’s immediately surprised by her husband with the flowers. It’s clear from her reaction that she is taken aback by the touching display of emotion from her obviously loving husband.

The two exchange words, but between all the oohing and awing from bystanders, it’s impossible to pick up on any part of their conversation. They eventually share a loving embrace.

Before the video concludes, someone directs the happy couple to “turn this way” in order to capture photos.

What a sweet, kind and loving gesture from a thoughtful husband. Hopefully the happy enjoyed their night with plenty of dancing and food.

1 Peter 3:7 “You husbands, in the same way, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered.”

One of the biggest names in music today stunned a philanthropic organization in the Charlotte, North Carolina area with a generous monetary donation. 

The good Lord truly is an artist. The great outdoors is brimming with evidence of His wondrous works of art. The vast oceans, a breathtaking sunset and a striking, colorful sunrise are just a few examples of God’s artistry. However, technology's ever-growing and pervasive presence often keeps our faces glued to the screen instead of taking in all the beauty that lies outside.

One organization is trying to change that, showing kids that a whole world resides beyond the iPhone and Android screen. Camping with Cradle founder Keith Cradle appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show and discussed the aim and mission of his organization.

“Well, I just love the outdoors and I know you do, too,” Keith said. “But so many kids here in Charlotte just don’t have that opportunity. And so, we created Camping with Cradle to provide that outlet and that opportunity to get them backpacking, camping and hiking.”

Later in the segment, Keith mentioned to Kelly that all the camping equipment and the outings are provided to the children completely free of charge.

“That’s the whole reason why we do it,” Keith said. “We want to bridge that gap when it comes to access and inclusion in the outdoors and so all the outings are free. And for kids that go backpacking with us, they have an opportunity to keep that gear.”

Before the interview ended, Kelly surprised Keith with a $1,000 donation to his organization to show her support for all the good Keith is doing for the kids of Charlotte. 

Psalms 8:3-4 “When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained; what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?”

Take a listen to this struggling young woman’s story about a Trader Joe’s cashier who made her day, surprising her with a bouquet of flowers just when she needed it most!

It may sound like an advertisement for Trader Joe’s, but Danielle Blakey’s TikTok video is perhaps an advertisement for kindness, thoughtfulness, and attentiveness. Those are three traits demonstrated by the employee who rang out Danielle on a recent bad day.

Danielle explains that she’s had a couple of really hard days, and she’d stopped into the store to pick up a few groceries, her cupboards and refrigerator bare. As she recounts the story, Danielle’s eyes are wet with tears, and her face is red. She shares that while she usually does a good job of hiding her emotions, she wasn’t that day. Although she wasn’t crying at the register, she was visibly down and sad, and the cashier noticed it.

The video includes a couple of subtitles. In the second, Danielle describes herself as “a pleaser,” so we understand when she says that she felt bad for not being friendly and responsive to the gentleman in the lane. While he’d tried to make conversation, she just wasn’t in a state of mind to do so.

As the transaction neared completion, Danielle grabbed her credit card to pay. The cashier excused himself for a moment, but the young woman didn’t think much about it. When he returned, though, the cashier brought Danielle a lovely bouquet of spring flowers—a bunch of purple and pink kindness!

Danielle reports that she completely broke down. Overwhelmed by the caring gesture, Danielle sobbed and bawled and is praising Trader Joe’s and its employees. She didn’t get the name of the kind mister that gave her the flowers, but she extended an emotional word of thanks via TikTok to the cashier that served her at Trader Joe’s Dallas-Greenville location.  

Some viewer comments indicate that Trader Joe’s intentionally fosters a culture of kindness, empowering and encouraging their employees to attend to customer needs beyond the expected. Whether this particular individual was trained well or raised well, we don’t know. However, Danielle, who normally posts about dating and relationships, may consider advising her followers to be looking out for a Trader Joe’s type of partner!

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