Watch these young boys do something so unexpected, it will make your jaw drop but then something unexpected also happens to them. Three young boys are rewarded by a complete stranger after helping an elderly man off the bus.
If only a chain reaction of kindness, encouragement, and compassion could happen in the real world! Oh wait–it just did in this video posted to TikTok. Three boys were walking along the sidewalk of a busy street when they encounter an elderly gentleman in front of them.
This elderly man has just gotten off the bus. His walker had been wheeled to the sidewalk with his belongings. It was apparent he was frail and in need of assistance. Instead of walking by him and assuming someone else might come along to help, the boys immediately began helping the elderly man. They gathered around him to ensure he wouldn’t fall and helped assist him to his walker.
Most would have assumed once he had his walker, he would be fine. But these three sweet boys noticed he was having a hard time maneuvering the walker and keeping his belongings from dragging on the ground. They proceeded to pick up his bags and secure them in place before the man began shuffling away.
These three boys didn’t seem to think their actions were a big deal. They saw someone in need and helped out. But it’s so rare to witness acts of kindness which is why this video was not only recorded but what happens next is astonishing! Another man witnessed the whole event and he had to stop by the boys to reward them for their kindness.
In the video, the gentleman tells them they had done a good thing and to never stop being kind. We agree, we hope these young boys will remember the moment they had done something out of the kindness of their hearts and that it began a chain reaction. It pays to be kind in more ways than one.
Not only does God see it, but so does everyone else.
“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” Ephesians 4:32
