Man’s Act Of Kindness Toward Woman Out Of Gas Leads To ‘Godwink’ | TODAY
I love this.....never look down on someone unless you are helping them up!
WOW!!!
Amen Queen~
I love this saying
AMEN
Amen 🙏🏽
i feel like crying because that man did some thing that change both lives for ever. We need to love each other.
Amen
AMEN
I did cry;)

Five years later, and I am still overwhelmed with joy to hear this story. It touches my heart, and it makes me know and believe and feel the goodness of God. Be blessed
I love you
Right this is an incredible story for sure! It’s timeless.
Yesss!! Chills thru my as I watched it. 😭😭💕💕💕💕
She was born for that assignment.Was given a heart for it and God just keeps blessing her heart.A big thanks to the gentleman who didn't ignore God's voice.
No act of kindness is ever lost, believe me.
One of my favorite sayings
That's why it is stupid to be racist. In life, we are so connected in ways we cannot foresee. What a better world we would have, if we showed compassion to our neighbors. This thread of humanness was the reason I came to America.
May God bless you & all like you.
Sweet and nice
TELL Your people to stop being racist..
@@ronwhiteleo3352 whose your people
It could be easy to practice racism because it’s the road most traveled in our country, unfortunately most of our teachers most of our preachers and politicians I doing it,in ways we cannot imagine but if you love your yourself.with a humble heart then you’ll treat others in a manner that you!yourself! would like to be treated.Jesus lived and he is living,he is living in my heart ring the bells and spread the message Jesus Christ is alive and well.
Truth. We are all brothers and sisters on this earth.
What you do will come back to you.
Unbelievable story. God bless them both, as well as all the people that have funded this lady's education.
Amen!
Heal nah college ain't worth 8k I ain't falling for that shi bruh
@@___Anakin.SkywalkerI spent 246k on college 😂😂
A couple weeks ago, there was a lady at a gas station that I was at. I was getting gas. She asked a guy ahead of me if he could buy her some gas. She said even $10 would work. He said no. Then she came to me. I originally said no. Then I said okay well it's only $10 I can help. I gave her cash $10. She went to go get some gas. She was very thankful. Maybe some how that will be a Godwink to me?? Another incident this guy was turning right,but his truck died completely. Everyone was passing him not willing to help. I parked away and went to walk to him. I told him I would push his car to the gas station or side street (out of the road). I told him to put it in neutral. So I pushed his truck from behind. Another guy came to help me. We both got him safely out of the road to the side of the street/gas station. Maybe some how that will be a Godwink to me? Either of these times...I am STILL waiting!! Bring me some magic please.
ANYONE that can work as a Nurse's Aide for over 20 years, even if intermittently, has a heart of gold.
Nurses don’t get enough credit. They take care of our loved ones and our great people. Love this❤️
Yeah they do.
Facts!!!
So true! Nurses often work very long hours, often mixed shifts, aren't paid the greatest for what they do and often see death & dying & yet they are so cool. I love them all.
leterbuck2001 Smdh
Nurses are special in so many ways. They make the difference. God bless nurses.
If everyone simply treated others as they want to be treated this world would be a better place.
I say that all the time
Yep! The Golden Rule.
St the gas staition
Yes how simple is it , and yet its still something we dont seem to achieve
Some ppl like getting kicked in the nuts and loved being whipped
This brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful story
People doing Gods work! This is such a beautiful and wholesome story. The world needs to see more videos like this, humaninty, respect, love, and frienship. God is truly amazing!!
So beautiful. This is when God shines through people.
R D Amen. He shows out every time .
love your comment
Amen! It is definitely from God..it is meant. It cannot be a simple coincidence considering the many variables that aligned
Amen and I most definitely agree
you think like a 9 year old, go to Sunday School much?
Man my allergies kicked in and my eyes got watered.
Mine to
Lol mine to too
Hallelujah
Man your full of it you was crying I know I had water in my eyes
@Shane Michaels yeah all men do have a soft side too we just don't like people to see it
Wow, just wow, as I wipe tears away. We desperately need more of this.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
If she can come out of this with little to no debt, she can go into care and be amazing! Thank you for this story.
"If you can't help people , what good are you!"
A purpose-driven life
My first thoughts? Now that's a real Christian! Made sure he came back to help, then listened and obeyed as the Holy Spirit prompted him further. God, You are so good! Whew! and her response when the Lord provided!! I'm in tears! What an amazing story!
I agree with you
As do I!!! Beautiful, beautiful story!!!
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A CHRISTIAN TO BE A GOOD AND KIND PERSON PERIOD.
@@denieledwards6893 of course, but you prob do have to be a Christian to listen, follow and recognize the Holy Spirit.
@@cindymacferran331 I RATHER LIVE IN REALITY INSTEAD OF FANTASY ABOUT A MYTH THAT LIVES IN THE SKY...PURE SPECTULATION.
I was driving to work & praying that God would use me. I lfinished my job and started to drive home when i saw a man walking with a gas can. I passed him by because i was tired then i rememberd my prayer. I turned around and the man said thank you I was praying to God for help. I took him to the gas staion and made sure him was ok . I thanked God that he used me
This is beautiful. It’s important to be obedient because your obedience is tied to someone’s blessing. Praying for this family & nurse to be!💜 watching in July 2023
His mother died on Tundy's birthday. Amazing 💞
Right!? Wow...
@@TracyAllenVideos are you being sarcastic?
That is so amazing
I know that part gave me chills. It's like everything kept lining up in a meaningful way🙏💜
I know wow
Years later and I still get goose bumps...this is beautiful
Love always wins 🫂💖 hate destroys.
Goosebumps? Really?
God bless all involved. May he continue to bless them.
This is too good for the soul that makes me cry out of joy. What a gentle man God bless you Sir and your family. You are a wonderful man that the world today needs for peace and love.
There's no such thing as coincidence. HE puts us where we need to be. God bless Tundi and the wonderful man who stopped and cared.
Amen!
Completely false
This quote scares me cuz all the places I’ve been I asked y was I put in this situation . U truly don’t find out till times has passed
@@shordy77 Coincidence happen all the time to people of all types of faith and as importantly people of no faith. People always want to attach there personal god to things like this to show proof of god. If this is good evidence then this is good enough to prove other gods exist also.
@@shordy77 We're afraid because we are human. Everything and situation is a learning experience. Try it afraid!
What an incredible story! One person has changed not only Tundy's life, but his mother and her future patients. Imagine what we could do together. Good on him.
But still Tundy will support BLM and cry racism. Never help these people.
GOD changed their lives.
I LOVE KIND PEOPLE. Good people helping good people.
Such a beautiful story! Tears. I love the way God works!
When we make the Lord part of our daily lives .... He makes wonders !!!
Crap.
jason kim amen to that
@@timlynch5710 Thank you, Tim! Succinct and accurate
My mama always said, "God works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform"!
And the Mom passed on Tundee's BIRTHDAY. 364 other days it could've been... Major Godwinks here. So beautiful.
This story never gets old
Praise God. His gift was multiplied exponentially.
*809 TrumpPimps down Voted this Vid!!!*
He is not a god but ahuman.
Hallelujah!
Bullcrap.
No, "his gift was" NOT "multiplied exponentially."
You have been brain-washed and emotionally manipulated, & indoctrinated with the lies & the illogical fallacies of your religion.
Prove any god was involved.
You can't.
Your statement is a lie, unless you can prove it.
NO evidence that any god did anything.
To imply or say an invisible "god" was involved is a big fat LIE of fantasy or delusion.
Stay real.
Stay truthful.
@@EllEss331 way are you so angry
I don't know who's cutting onions in my living room 😭 😩 😢 😫
Mine too, some very strong ones🥲🥲😫😥
Ok, this was funny.
I'm currently having the same problem
In my room too.
What a amazing story. Small world ey !!!
😡😡😡That onion cutter is at my houses now l wish they would stop cutting onions in people's homes how rude.
I could not hold back my tears! Thank you for showing this.
There is out many good and kind people like her ,God bless her.
My grandmother use to say, Treat people the way you want to be treated...
Yes! Its scripture 🙌
My grandmother used to say, घोड़े कुत्तों से बड़े होते हैं, लेकिन कुत्ते चींटियों से बड़े होते हैं
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is God's Golden Rule.
Nothing is coincidental, everything has it's place in time. God is Good. I am so happy for the lady meeting this man it is Gods will to be done.
Edward N. Hartman No need to ever pray then!!
@@blackatheistmillionaire1636 My dear, prayer is not to tell God our needs because he already knows them. Prayer is for our benefit, to lift us towards God and help us see His marvelous love and care for us. When I pray, for myself and my situations and to praise God, I will be praying for you. From now on you are in my prayers list. May God bless and care for you.
Good things come to good people
@@mikelovetere4719 That's not always the case. Many "good" things happen to "bad" people and vice versa.
Actually, things are coincidences. We notice them because they aren't the norm, but there is a small chance. A "miracle" would be something happening where there would be no chance of it happening. That has actually never been shown.
Absolutely heartwarming. No random act of kindness divinely destined goes unrewarded. Everything divinely planned came full circle. The reaction of one of the hosts told the entire story.
She is exactly what healthcare needs!! She’s such a beautiful soul. Mom died on her birthday… wow
How great is our God. This story has me in tears
ungratefulmetalpansy that’s the problem with the ppl today. Never acknowledging their wrongs and their abandonment of the true and living God. Instead of worshipping Christ Jesus the creator y’all worship things created . For that reason You have push God to jealousy for he is a jealous God. But if you read your bible you would know that. Ever hearing but never understanding. Woe to you.
@@tam1729 I don't dislike God, i respect him as our creator and of the universe. This existence is too powerful and remarkable to have a scientific explanation as of now, but I think everyone should have the right to their own religious viewpoints, my belief anyways is that we are independent beings created by God to manipulate our world. I feel God has intentionally left us to fend and grow on our own, to see us show ourselves, and all emotions, personalities, and features are our own decisions, not God's. I don't agree with the person for hating God, but at the same time, I can't agree with God's identity: whether he is Christ's father, Allah, Vishnu, or Buddha, he is still our creator
Fornax there you go with your “but I think” ALL those facts to proclaim from your mouth to then follow them with what YOU think. As scripture says “ There’s a way that seeming right to men but in the end is death “. Jesus is the only way to the true and living God. If we respect and honor him we keep his commandments.
As for us. Humans of course. Some water and some plant, but God alone does the increase according to our hearts. Be blessed.
@@tam1729 also to address the scripture you speak of (this may be offensive if you are devout, read at your own choice)
The Bible, along with other scriptures was made thousands of years ago. Humans for thousands of years, since the beginning of time and their creation, have worshipped and recognized a higher form of divinity, such as nature spirits, Gods, and I feel as if Christianity was another form of viewpoint of how Jesus, if he existed, viewed God. Over time in history, from the period where religion dominated life, we've slowly moved towards rational thinking: not believing anything without proof. For most things we credited to God there have been scientific explanations. There are some questions that we cannot answer which can certainly be credited to God, but to credit it Christianity itself varies on your viewpoint. Another person could credit "enlightenment" to Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism, and many other syncretic and other religions that exist.
Fornax the word of God is God and it never changes he is the same yesterday today and tomorrow. Be blessed
I'm at work watching this & all of a sudden all of my challenges don't seem anywhere near as big. This act, this video, in this very moment has humbled me. Thank you Jesus!

Haha!!! Oh my! There aren’t too many people who give a crap anymore and that’s the truth. But, you have those people out there who care.
This 57 year old man has tears on his cheeks after reading this! Beautiful!

We all need to do random acts of kindness for others. God is love. We need God back in our country.
Always keep Jehovah God first in your life.
😪😪😪😪God is so good. He may not come when you want him, but he will be there right on time! Blessings to all!
+Dribble nation - Agreed! God may not give people what they want, but He finds a way to give them what they need. How many lives will God touch through the nursing care from Tunde in the years to come? PTL

Yes he will. Hallelujah!!!
yeah, thank god for spreading cancer left right and center
Yes
Please, we need more of these stories! There are so many good people in the world doing good things. Let's showcase THEM!!

Do you really have nothing better to do with your life than to pick on someone for spelling a word wrong? Grow up, and act like an adult.

Amen!
What a warming sentiment! You never know what a small gestures will do for someone. We should always continue to bless each other.
I'm a home health aid, too. I've been blessed with the absolute best people to care for.
.. And this story is amazing of how God works bad circumstances to bless His people.
I love this story. This is what America needs. We can all be a better nation if we help each other and not hate each other.
Gosh yes, Im so sick and tired of alll the negative bs; in this country and the next.
-AMEN- !!!😇
God... only God...This was beautiful.
My eyes are leaking. What a lovely lady with such a sweet heart. Well done kind man.
This happened 5 years ago. But right now sitting here watching this video crying like a baby. Kindness Matters😇😇🙏🙏
God is awesome 👏 made me cry 😢
Nikki Williams made me cry too. God is good all the time.
Nikki Williams was god on the show no so stfu
God is good, all the time. And all the time, God is good. If you ever feel that you've strayed from His path, all you need to do is turn around, right?
Nikki Williams NO.god is imaginary!!
Tundy was crying and I am crying too! What a wonderful story! God is so good.
I got a direct sign from God when I asked an important question about my life. I saw beings not of this earth, they were tall, lots of them n I was not afraid. Also few wks before meeting my soulmate I had a dream in which I was talking in Arabic, it had been confirmed that I was saying that God is Sending Help. God exists and so do Angels and other beings. And I'm not even Christian bit We believe in Jesus. Peace from England UK
Thandi
This tugged at my soul. A simple act of kindness went such a long way.
Oh bless their hearts. It's been 5 years. I hope they are all still close and have their happily ever afters.
We meet people for a divine reason either to mature you,bring hope,or bring you to your destiny
wow what a powerful word. thank you
or to destroy you.
I was debating whether to engage on this, but it's just so frustrating to me. This is a nice story, but it was just a coincidence. It wasn't divine or godly. First of all the god of the bible isn't real, and it's a good thing. I would hate to live in a world where Jahova was in charge. That being said If you really loved god and you then want to attach this random coincidence to him don't you see that you also have to attribute all random coincidences even the horrible ones too. With 350 million people in this country there will always be strange coincidences happening that's just what happens when you have a lot of people. there is no purpose behind them. It's just a numbers game. These things are just bound to happen.
What a great story made me cry
Alicia Derr me 2
Alicia Derr me too.

Me 4. I love these moments.
What a great story.......we need more people like those in the world. Love and blessings.
As a Scandinavian I don't know what a "Godwink" is, but this almost made me start crying. God bless them for wanting to do some kindness to each other, it take so little, and yet so many in our world don't have it in their heart to even do anything at all. So I pray this will touch people like it touched me.
Cant believe 99 percent of this channel
Cant believe 99 percent of this channel
It was a very touching story. PS - I have to say very cool YT name, and fitting of course because you are Scandinavian, the original place of the 'Elvenkind' :D
But they explained it in the video…and being Scandinavian seems irrelevant. Is it that you didn’t comprehend it or you don’t believe God exist and just see it as a coincidence? Either way, it’s a cute story.
@@AkireMaru Being Scandinavian is relevant, because I haven't heard the phrase "Goodwink" before, because we don't speak English in Norway, even though most understand it pretty well, specially "slang" and similar words are often difficult to understand. So yes, I didn't comprehend it. I certainly believe in God. I don't believe in "coincidences" when it's clear something life-changing have happened. I understand God = Gud, and Wink/Waving = Vink/Vinke, in my language.
OMG. I CAN NOT STOP CRYING. NOBODY BUT GOD....
GAIL KNIGHT god is nobody!!!
GAIL KNIGHT 😢😢😢😢😢😢
That's the ALL MIGHTY GOD once again... Praise Him!! 😭
This is one of the best stories I have heard in a long, long time. It makes me cry, and makes me realize that there are still such good people out there, and that God is watching over us all, all the time.
Lord Jesus!! Got me in tears 😢😢
This brought tears to my eyes. Amazing story.
With all the Darkness surrounding our Lives. It only takes a Glimmer of Light to guide us through.
its nothing but except the fullfledge Humane attitude that matters .......!!
AWSOME
Amen.
Wow I got goosebumps watching this. Beautiful.
Well, I'm a mess right now....God Bless Tundy, and God bless the family and folks who helped her. There is good in this world in spite of the ugly we see so much of.....I want more of this!! GodWink!!
Devine intervention at its best!!! ❤❤❤
you spelled "divine" wrong lol

This story sent chills rushing through my body and tears streaming down my face. God is so incredible. In Jesus name
Lady Invy mine too
Now it's not just god but specifically Jesus. Since we are basing causes of events on emotion only, then I say it was the Norse god, and son of Odin, Baldr (whose name means "shining day").

What a great and touching story greetings from Sydney Australia.
I’ve never heard the expression God Wink but I’ve definitely experienced some in my life.
God bless this man for his acts of kindness and Tundie for her work as a caregiver and hopefully by now as a nurse. And thank you God for your Devine Grace….. (-;
I loved Godwink!!! What an incredible story! You never know who you are helping!
I AM LITERALLY IN TEARS‼️‼️TO GOD BE THE GLORY ‼️🙌
She’s probably a fantastic nurse. I’m an RN and we need nurses like her. Good people that are caring and smart!
What a good man.! We need more like him. ❤
Omg Tears 😭💗 bless

This is such a beautiful and heart touching story. It's absolutely amazing how a little kindness can cause such a rippling effect. The love and concern that man showed this sweet lady was so wonderful! This story reminds me that there is still people who genuinely care. This also restores my faith in humanity.
Loving these precious stories so much.
Prayers she will get her nursing degree, because she will make a very compassionate nurse. God bless her in all her present and future endeavors.
Prayers to them all. ❤❤😊😊
These are the stories they need to share
