You are a very nice person that's why you encountered with a nice old lady. It was very nice of you to help her during this cold weather. The lady really appreciated your effort that's why she rewarded you.

I was just shocked at the amount of it really I love old ppl and in a lot of cases I just feel they are treated or respected the way they should be I mean if I was running that store I would have sent someone younger worker out there to help her but thank you for your response

This is a cool story. You don't hear about people doing this that often. you know helping people with there grocery's. I like to help when ever I can. I'm not always able to do so. It's good to see there are people out there that are still willing to help out.

The Lord works in mysterious ways and He saw you struggling today. He will take care of all of your needs as long as you allow Him to do so. That is an awesome thing.

That is so cool! Good for you. Last Christmas someone anonymously sent me and my husband a christmas card with two hundred dollars. I couldn't stop crying, I was so touched. It's so good to know that there's still people like this in the world, especially when we're having a bad day.

Hello sxrxnrr, reading this story really touched me, yes, God knows what we need and He also knows your heart. That indicent were really meant for a purpose...That very time, the old woman really needed a helping hand, and you were there because you were directed "God answers prayer and request in very different way" He always answers in a situation the least you expect. Yes, when you do something nice to others, theres always triple or more beautiful things to occur before you. God compensates more than you expect. It was really kind of you for the help extended to stranger. You are an endangered species I should say , as we can only count few of people like you now a days.

Good story. Good thing you found 30 dollars to spend. I sometimes find money in my pocket sometimes and never know how it got there. Life is so surprising anything can happen.

In this world that has become so darned violent and hateful it surprises me when I hear thins like this. You are definately one in a million sweety and you deserve every bit of that money. Good for you!!!

It was nice of you to help that lady,it sounds like something I would have done myself.I work with the elderly 5 days a week and they do have some wonderful history if you just let them tell you about it,there is one lady that is 103 and she is still wheeling herself around in a wheelchair,she will tell you alot of stories.As I always say God works in mysteries ways and you and the lady helped each other.Great story I am glad you shared it with us.Have a great night.

This is great. Just when you needed it most you discovered the money and if the lady you helped happened to put it there she truly appreciated what you did for her. Kindness always comes back to reward you when you least expect it.

People say that we can't see God but God comes to earth in such a way that we can't realize them. She was like a God. He was there in that lady who gave you what you were wishing for. I don't think there are many people like her in this world. All the best for your future.

That is so cool. I have had that happen to me once. I was sitting at the gas station counting out pennies to put gas in my car I put the 1.30 I had in and went in to pay There was an older gentleman that was at the pump next to me pumping his gas as I sat there and counted. He looked my way and I smiled and said hello to him. He went into pay and I was right behind him following him into the store he was walking out as I was walking in and once again he smiled and said to have a nice day. As I walked in I thought what a nice man. I stood in the line and when it was my turn to pay the lady at the register said that I still had 20.00 in credit. I stood there looking at her dumbly trying to figure out what she meant when she said some one has given me 20 dollars for your gas go and get your gas. I was amazed when I got back out to tell the gentleman thank you he was gone no where in site. I never did get the chance to thank the man and the gas that he payed for really meant a lot I was actually on my way to pick my son up from day care and as a single mother I did not have alot of money and actually would not have had enough gas even with my 1.30 I had put in. I was just going on a wing and a prayer. Funny how things like that always seem to happen when you really are at you wits ends.

Not only a great story of passion, but also a true testament in when one does good deeds good deeds are returned. Wouldn't the world be so much more peaceful with people like you and her?
