One Act of Kindness

Man overhears sad tale in diner, secretly pays for meal

21 hrs ago

When one mystery diner in a Boston restaurant overheard a mother and daughter get some bad news, he took out a pen and scribbled this note to his waiter: "Do me a favor and bring me their check, too. Someone just got diagnosed. Don't tell them." The waiter, impressed by his customer's act of kindness, posted the note on Reddit — and we're glad he did. (Now we get to have our "faith in humanity restored," too.) The waiter, known as Whiskkas on Reddit, writes that the two women started crying after the daughter received a phone call mid-meal, and that he then combined the two bills as requested. He added: "I waited until the guy left and told them he had taken care of their check, and that he said best wishes, which was what he said to do on the note he wrote me on his second bill.

The mother cried even harder, I almost lost it." [Source]

That put a smile on my face...

I thank God for blessing this man, an Angel of the Lord sent to bring joy to a hurting heart.

I also pray for this family healing no matter what the diagnosis.

Lord we thank you for each of these people in Jesus' Name, Amen.

I agree Shimmie, and Amen! ... "the mother cried even harder..." I believe she'd shed tears of pain and joy in the same moment, too. Touching story, and God is good indeed!

God truly used this gentleman to bring hope and comfort to someone in need.

I believe acts of kindness are truly a blessing. When we show compassion and concern toward others that can start the healing and restoration process...
