This video can help brighten any day. A restaurant surprises a blind woman with Braille cake on her birthday.

As the waiter carries a special delivery to the table of a woman, this sweet birthday girl is in for a surprise. ​​Natalie Te Paa is a blind singer/songwriter from England. Her producer Claire spoke with the restaurant, Luciano by Gino D’Campo, and arranged for Natalie to have a braille birthday wish written in chocolate on a plate.

The waitress asks Natalie to give her hand and places it on the chocolate. Natalie begins to gasp and responds in excitement, “They did not!” Claire says, “You guys are amazing.” Natalie says, “Wow that is wild!” She continues, “You officially win, for the best restaurant dessert ever.” Claire introduces Natalie to Validia who came up with the idea to encourage Natalie on her special day.

The extra effort of kindness shown by this restaurant and Claire reminds us to be on the lookout for others. Many times there are people with disabilities who do not get to experience the world in the same ways. This clip reminds us of the message to love well and go the extra mile to bless them.
Natalie may be blind, but God can use each and every one of us to glorify Him. Jesus reminds us that being blind is not due to sin or punishment, but so that the Lord may be magnified.

“As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And his disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him.” John 9:1-3
