Matt and Katie always wanted to have a family, but when that hope didn’t take shape the way they expected, this sweet couple turned to adoption. So they trusted in the Lord and waited for someone to give them the opportunity to have a child.
Finally, a selfless mother chose them and then Matt got the call at work that their baby girl had been born. That's when he rushed over to tell Katie and emotions took hold of both of them. We then get to see them meet their little girl, Natalie Grey, for the very first time, and it's even more emotional than you can imagine. It's so touching to watch as they take her home and surprise their friends and family with their new bundle of joy.
From the first time they lay eyes on her you can see the love and hope and relief in their eyes. And seeing the reactions of their friends and family makes you absolutely certain that this little girl is so very loved.
This video was beautiful enough, but when you hear the vows that these parents share with their baby girl it becomes even sweeter. They promise to always love and protect her and to grow her in the love of the Lord. May God bless this incredible family!
Every so often, someone decides to perform a social experiment to see how everyday people react to different situations. This young man decided to see how strangers would react if he asked for their help. So that's when he went to a busy bus stop and asked strangers if they would help him by tying his tie for a big job interview. He had no idea what their reactions would be, but with help from his friends they set up a camera and waited.
Over and over again he approached people and they happily helped. When he told them he was headed off to a big job interview many of them offered him well wishes. Some people even went above and beyond to make this young man feel comfortable and supported. But one of my favorite moments is when a woman becomes so worried about this stranger getting cold that she refused to let him go without taking her hand warmer.
As she held his hands to warm them up she gave him a pep-talk about how hard his generation has it and how he needed to keep up his confidence. Her kindness and encouragement went way beyond what was required. This special moment truly inspired me to show a little extra kindness today. What about you?
