Heartwarming

A mom group’s heartfelt surprise left a fellow mom, a member of their group, in tears. She could not believe what the other mothers did and immediately became emotional. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see what the mothers did that had their fellow group member in tears.

Unfortunately, this world is often a sad, cold and cruel place. Take a gander at popular social media platforms like Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram and TikTok, and you’ll be convinced. Hatred, hostility and profanity abound on those websites where strangers lash out at one another with some of the worst, most vile things you’ll ever read.

Yes, there is no doubt that kindness is in very short supply. How hard is it to show someone kindness? Not very, right? Hold the door for someone, compliment a stranger’s outfit or acknowledge them as you pass them on the sidewalk. Who knows, your unexpected act of kindness could be just what they need and may mean the world to them. A clip posted on social media captured an unexpected act of love and kindness, a beautiful move of inclusion.

The short but powerful clip is of a mom’s group. The women, while holding their children, are all sitting in a circle when, unexpectedly, they all start signing simultaneously. The text at the top of the frame explains the situation. Apparently, the woman and her child in the middle of the frame are hearing impaired. The other group members had taken the time to learn enough of American Sign Language so they could all sign the “Hello Song.”

Once the woman understands what is happening and witnesses the love and kindness that is being shown to her and her son, she breaks down in tears.

What an unexpected but extraordinary act of kindness! We desperately need more of it in this world, where far too many possess a cruel and uncaring dog-eat-dog mentality.

A teenage survivor of the deadly flooding of a Texas camp rewrote the lyrics to "Hallelujah," creating a powerful and tear-jerking version. Her new verses to the beloved tune are emotional, moving and sure to bring a tear or two to your eye. Watch the short but chilling clip to listen to the young woman's powerful lyrics.

Unfortunately, tragedies, such as natural disasters like tornadoes, hurricanes or flooding, do occur. Everywhere we look, whether on social media or any television news broadcast, we are quickly reminded of this fact. Also, depending on when and where they take place, they can be absolutely devastating and horrific, leading to immense pain and heartache.

Texas, specifically the central part of the Lone Star State, was recently the site of massive flooding. Sadly, according to Fox News, more than 130 people were killed as a result of the flooding. Among those who lost their lives were nearly 30 young people and counselors at Camp Mystic, which is described as a "private Christian summer camp for girls."

But despite the tragedy, through all the hurt and gut-wrenching pain, one young woman, a Camp Mystic camper, shared what she experienced during that horrible situation. In a clip posted on YouTube, she added her own words, creating a new version of the Leonard Cohen hit classic song from 1985.

It will be difficult not to shed a tear or two while listening to this young woman perform her updated version of "Hallelujah" as she sings of the devastation she witnessed, but also of the love and kindness she felt in the tragedy’s aftermath.

"Our faith was strong

You showed us love

Like only God from up above

Your prayers and hugs and love overwhelmed us"

What a powerful and moving tune that captures the hurt and devastation she and her fellow campers experienced. But through all that hurt and loss, this young woman remains hopeful, obviously moved by the outpouring of love, kindness and generosity shown to her and those impacted.

Colossians 3:16 "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”

Watch how this mom corrects her son with patience and love. She could have easily been loud, cruel and harsh with the young man, but she took a different, loving and effective approach to correcting and redirecting the child. Check out the short but heartwarming video to see the loving way in which the woman taught her son a lesson.

Children are a joy and an absolute blessing from the good Lord above. No suitable and fit parent would ever say or think otherwise. Those little ones bring with them and add much happiness to every household, enhancing everyone’s life in innumerable ways. Everything in life is made significantly by the presence of children.

While everyone can agree that being a parent is a blessing and an unmitigated privilege, children don’t arrive knowing and understanding everything. That’s why an essential part of parenting is teaching, correcting and redirecting children when they run afoul and do something wrong. Of course, there are several ways to accomplish this task, some more loving and effective than others.

A clip posted on social media captures a mother correcting her child’s errant behavior. The little guy was recently in an artistic mood because he has been coloring on the walls, something nearly every child does at one time or another. This is, of course, unacceptable behavior and must be corrected. But the mother in the video does not scream and yell at the young man, loudly informing him of his mistake.

Instead, Mom takes a different approach. She makes it clear that what he did was not right and that he can no longer continue doing his artwork on the wall. She mentions alternative places where he can be creative and even has him clean the walls.

The mother in the video does all of this without ever raising her voice, but she does and says everything in a kind and gentle manner. This approach will be much more effective than if she had taken another route. He will likely not color on the walls in the future because he doesn’t want to disappoint instead of fearing her, her wrath and whatever punishment she may give him.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.”

This daily devotional features a bible verse of the day from Psalm 56:8. In today’s reflection, we pause with the tender truth that God sees every tear and holds each one with care. Whether you’re grieving, feeling overwhelmed, or are quietly aching, this short devotional and prayer reminds you: you are not forgotten. Reflect on how God sees your pain and offers spiritual comfort during difficult times. Find divine comfort in knowing that you are not alone, and that God keeps track of all your sorrows as we are reminded of His unwavering presence. 🌐 https://www.discipleship.foundation

One father's sweet and unexpected wedding gesture melts hearts. The bride's father went out of his way to include someone who was completely taken aback by the kind and loving gesture. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see the tear-jerking moment the bride's father created.

Weddings are extraordinary, fantastic occasions. They are most certainly reasons for celebration. Who doesn't love seeing two people, standing before God and all their family and friends in attendance, make a loving and lifelong commitment to one another? 

Of course, weddings are often highly emotional events because almost everything involved is significant. Those prone to tears should carry a pack of tissues with them. Even people who do not typically get choked up easily will likely find themselves shedding a tear or two at a wedding. However, what one father of the bride did is likely to have everyone crying, regardless of their propensity to shed tears.

The clip picks up right before the beautiful bride makes her grand entrance and proceeds down the center aisle accompanied by her father. But seconds before that happens, her father makes a move that takes everyone, including the bride, by surprise.

He walks up the aisle by himself, approaches the bride's stepfather, and asks him a question. 

"Would you like to help me escort her?"

With the help of her father and stepdad, the bride makes her way down the aisle to her groom. What a beautiful moment, one that all of them will never forget.

"Weddings are a great way to bring people together," the bride's father said.

His daughter appreciated her father's sweet and surprising move.

"That was something, like, I've always thought about, but, you know, I didn't want to take that moment away from my dad," she said. "I felt like the luckiest girl alive, and to have both my dads there."

Ephesians 4:32 "And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you."

A great-grandfather’s emotional response to a baby’s name will melt your heart. The elderly man could not keep himself from bursting into tears once he learned the name of his great-grandson. Watch the short but precious clip to see how the great-grandfather reacted when he made the sweet discovery.

None of us will live forever. The exact amount of time we’ve been allotted on Earth is unknowable, but it’s relatively safe to say that no one alive right now will be around in 100 years from now. Our bodies, which break down and wear out over time, are not made to last centuries. They are temporary, much like our time on this planet.

That’s why we must and should make the most of the time we’ve been given. Care about others more than ourselves, put their needs ahead of our own and strive to make a true and lasting impact on someone else’s life. After all, that’s what Jesus commands us to do in Mark. Right after He says we are to love God with all that we are, we are to love our neighbor as ourselves.

But how do we ever know if we’ve impacted and made a difference in someone else’s life? Most of the time, we don’t, but we have to trust that our words and actions did make a difference. However, in a clip posted on YouTube, one man witnessed the evidence that he had impacted another person.

In the video, an elderly gentleman is lovingly peering down at a newborn baby when he realizes the child, his great-grandson, has been named after him.

“You’re kidding,” he says, as his eyes start to fill up with tears. “You’re kidding me.”

From that point forward, the great-grandfather is a puddle of tears. He is beyond moved by the gesture that his grandson thought enough of him to name his child after him.

A group of airport workers went the extra mile to find a lost diamond from a wedding ring. After their initial efforts came up empty, they kept working until they were successful. Watch the short but tear-jerking video to see how far the maintenance workers went to recover one woman’s lost diamond.

Sadly, there is a lot of hatred and evil in the world. One quick look at any television news broadcast or popular social media platform will prove this. Unfortunately, sin and its impact can be spotted all around us, and it only seems to be worsening.

However, while sin has utterly ruined and destroyed our world, flashes and instances of goodness and kindness can also be found. Kind and caring people still exist, and those who are willing to help others whenever possible are still around. That’s what one woman learned after discovering that the diamond from her wedding ring was missing.

In a clip posted on social media, one woman, April Schmitt, who has been married to her husband for more than 30 years, had just landed back home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. While on her drive home, she noticed something unusual, something horrible. The diamond from her wedding ring was gone. After making this unfortunate discovery, she rushed back to the airport.

Odds for recovering the diamond were not in her favor. But that did not stop six maintenance workers from doing what they could. The video shows the determined gentleman working on and digging into the luggage carousel. Their initial efforts came up empty, but they were not to be deterred.

The clip mentions that the six men would continue looking until they located the missing diamond. Eventually, they found the diamond, which was returned to April.

“The expression on her face, you know, it made it all worth it,” said one of those kind and determined maintenance workers.

Kind and caring people still exist in the world, but just like those airport maintenance workers who found the diamond, you just have to know where to look.

Joyful tears flowed as one couple celebrated pregnancy news after years of fertility struggles. The woman became utterly overwhelmed with emotion as she informed her husband that she is pregnant after years of trying to conceive. Watch the short but tear-jerking video to see and hear the couple’s honest and heartwarming reaction to the big news.

There is arguably no greater blessing on Earth than being a parent. Yes, becoming a mother or a father will completely change your life in every way imaginable, but always for the better. Children can be exhausting, and they will get on your nerves more than you’d care to admit. But no parent would trade being a parent for anything in the world. Mother or father is the most important position and title you could ever hope to receive.

However, for some couples, the road to becoming parents is more difficult than for others and can often be filled with tears and heartbreak. That is especially true when there are fertility issues and struggles. They can be gut-wrenching and devastating, resulting in unimaginable hurt and heartache. A clip posted on YouTube shows what happens when a couple who had struggled with fertility issues for years learned they were finally going to become parents.

The video begins with the wife sitting on the ground, and her husband enters the room moments later. Given how slowly and deliberately he enters and the look of concern on his face, he knows something is up but is not quite sure what.

He slowly kneels next to his wife and gets a look at her positive pregnancy test. A massive smile comes across his face as he moves in to hug his pregnant wife. As he does, she begins sobbing uncontrollably, likely feeling all kinds of emotion in that beautiful moment.

Near the end of the clip, she mentions that she cannot believe her eyes, stating that she thinks she is in shock after years of trying. 

Psalm 127:3 “See, children are a heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.”

A UPS driver’s breaktime moment has everyone smiling. The young man took a momentary timeout from delivering packages and took advantage of an opportunity to beat the heat. Watch the short but hilarious clip to see the UPS driver’s unexpected move.

Summertime is a terrific opportunity to get outside and enjoy all nature has to offer, but it can also be a rather uncomfortable time of year. Soaring temperatures and unbearable humidity send crowds scrambling toward their local swimming pools every June, July and August. Of course, swimming is one activity that helps make the conditions outside a little more doable.

However, while diving into a pool is the most popular way to beat the summer heat and humidity, other water-related activities fulfill the same task. Participating in balloon fights and running through the sprinklers will also cool you down. But they are obviously not nearly as fun as having a go at a Slip ‘N Slide, and that’s precisely what a group of young men and a United Parcel Service employee did.

In the clip posted on YouTube, a UPS driver was captured unexpectedly taking a turn on a Slip ‘N Slide. He took a much-needed break from the heat to go down the wet slide, which was laid out in the front yard. Everyone appeared to be having the time of their life!

Immediately after going down the slide, the driver hops right back up and heads back to work, not appearing the least bit worried that his clothes were now more than a little damp.

The clip points out that young men who asked the UPS driver to join them for a high-speed ride down the water-covered slide were celebrating their recent high school graduation.

When it’s scorching and unbearably hot outside, you do whatever you have to beat the heat, even if it means going down a water slide fully dressed.

Proverbs 17:22 “A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.”

A bride brought her dad to tears with a surprise audio recording of her great-grandfather. Given his emotional reaction, the young woman's father was not expecting what his daughter found. Watch the short but tear-jerking clip to see and hear what the bride found and her father's response.

Weddings are often very emotional occasions where people shed a tear or two. Anyone who has ever attended a wedding and a reception knows there are plenty of opportunities to become emotional. There's the moment the bride enters the sanctuary and starts making her way down the aisle, when the happy couple begins exchanging vows and is pronounced husband and wife.

The reception also offers plenty of chances to become teary-eyed. There are the best man and maid of honor speeches and the father-daughter and mother-son dances. A clip posted on YouTube captures a father and his daughter, who has just gotten hitched, during the father-daughter dance at her reception when he unexpectedly becomes emotional, but not for the reason you might think.

Before her wedding day, the bride started going through old home movies when she made a startling discovery. She came across an old audio recording of her great-grandfather, her father's grandfather, singing. The clip also mentions that on the recording were her grandmother, her father's mother, and him singing as a child. Her father had no idea that recording even existed.

Seconds after the song begins, the bride's father is overcome with emotion and unable to stop himself from crying.

"Folks will begin to, maybe, record those special moments today and realize how special they'll be for years down the road," the father of the bride said.

What a lovely and unexpected gift the young woman gave her father on a day intended to be about her and the new chapter in her life.

Exodus 20:12 "Give honor to your father and to your mother, so that your life may be long in the land which the Lord your Give is giving you."

A woman found her wedding ring after 20 years, and her reaction says it all. She instantly became emotional after locating the important piece of jewelry that had gone missing two decades earlier. Watch the short but awe-inspiring clip to see the woman become overwhelmed with emotion after spotting her long-lost wedding ring.

Every couple's wedding day is a monumental occasion. The ceremony, in which they stand at an altar before their friends, family and God and exchange vows, is a day they will never forget. All the pictures and videos taken on that day will become cherished mementos of a wonderful, fantastic day.

However, as important as those pictures and videos might be, the wedding ring is much more important. It symbolizes the vows and promises made between those two people that day. So, if that ring were to become lost or temporarily misplaced, it would cause much concern, likely sending many into a panic. That’s likely what happened to one woman when she lost her wedding ring 20 years ago. But after two decades, she happened to come across the piece of jewelry.

A clip posted on YouTube explains that Dana Popham was in her bathroom in 2005 when she noticed her wedding ring had gone missing. It was nowhere to be found, which is how it remained for the next 20 years.

But then, in 2025, while remodeling that very same bathroom, Dana happened to come across that very same ring that had gone missing 20 years earlier. After making the shocking and unexpected discovery, Dana was more than a little excited and joyful. Her eyes immediately filled with tears as she was overwhelmed by the sight of her cherished wedding ring.

“When we pulled that cabinet out, my husband said, ‘There’s a ring,’ and I just screamed,” Dana said. “I just, I’m still shaking.”

Genesis 2:24 “For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.”

Henry Winkler’s kids melt hearts with their loving words for their dad. He was surprised by a video of his children stating how much they love and adore him. Watch the short but tear-jerking video to hear their heartwarming messages about and for their father, Henry Winkler.

To many, actor Henry Winkler has been and will always be known as “The Fonz.” Henry’s Arthur Fonzarelli on the beloved and iconic television series “Happy Days” epitomized suave and smooth. The Fonz, while wearing a leather jacket and riding a motorcycle, was as cool as they come, and that is the image most people have of him.

However, to a few people, Henry is not The Fonz but holds a much more important, meaningful title: Dad. They don’t remember him for his iconic “Happy Days” role but for how he loved, cared for and raised them. In a clip posted on YouTube, Henry received a special and heartwarming message from his children.

While appearing on TODAY with Jenna & Friends, the actor was hit with the surprise video of children expressing their love and gratitude for their father. Their words and sentiments are enough to cause even the most unemotional person to shed a tear or two. It’s clear that they all genuinely love and appreciate their father and everything he has done for them.

Following the clip, Jenna, not Henry, was moved to tears by the message shared by his children. She then asked Henry for advice, asking him what he did to “raise such beautiful children.”

“The center of all relationships is the ear,” Henry said. “It is not how you meant it; it’s how it’s heard.”

He added that his children knew they could always tell him what was on their minds.

Later in the clip, Henry gets yet another surprise. He received his favorite sweet treat: a bundt cake.

Psalm 103:13 “As a father has pity on his children, so the Lord has pity on his worshippers.”

A young runner slowed down to help a struggling competitor. The young man’s surprising and heartwarming act was an incredible show of sportsmanship. Watch the short but tear-jerking clip to see how one young runner stopped to help a fellow competitor who was having trouble finishing the race.

Most people love watching sports and would likely watch anything as long as there is some element of competition to it. Whether it be baseball, basketball or football, those teams have dedicated and rabid fan bases who want nothing more than to see their team come away with a victory. Who doesn’t want to see their favorite team win?

However, sadly, many people become so obsessed with and focused on winning that they see it as the only thing when it comes to sports, and they’ll do just about anything to win. Other things like fair play, sportsmanship and teamwork are quickly and forever lost. However, as a touching clip posted on social media shows, not everyone has forgotten about sportsmanship and kindness in sports and competition.

In the video, a race, which appears to be a 100-meter dash, has just begun. There are only four runners in the race, and three are off to a quick start, racing out in front, hoping to capture the victory.

However, at the back, viewers will spot one young man struggling. He is having a tough time moving down the track. Eventually, very early in the race, the young man stops on the track, exhausted, bent over with both hands on his knees. But instead of leaving him behind, one young man hangs back with the struggling runner.

The young man clearly encourages his fellow competitor and tries to motivate him to finish the race, which he does by the end of the video.

What an incredible act of sportsmanship and kindness!

1 Corinthians 9:24 “Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So, let your minds be fixed on the reward.”

A young girl’s thoughtful gift brings her father to tears. The child gave her father what some might initially think is an odd present for a man, but her reason for doing so will bring you to tears. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see what the child gave her dad and to hear her explanation for the gift.

Everyone loves receiving gifts. Yes, the Bible says giving is better than receiving, but we can all admit that we still enjoy getting presents. However, often, it’s not even the gift we like; it’s what the present represents that is so meaningful. It shows that someone loves, appreciates and thinks enough of us to purchase an item for us.

That old saying, it’s the thought that counts, is very accurate. Most likely, we’ll forget rather quickly what someone bought us for our birthday, for Christmas or some other occasion, but we’ll remember the fact that they did and their reason for doing so. A clip posted on YouTube shows how much the reason behind a gift meant to one father.

In the video, a little girl is seen running up a driveway and a flight of steps, making her way into her house. Viewers will notice that she holds a balloon and a bouquet of flowers in her right hand. Of course, most are almost assuredly thinking that they are gifts for her mother or grandmother, but that would be an incredibly incorrect assumption. The child has bought them for her father.

Once in the house, the girl approaches her father, who sits on the couch holding a baby. She gives them to him, and the look on his face makes it clear that he is baffled by her gift. But then she hits him with the reason for her present.

“I gave that to you because men only get flowers when they pass away once in their life,” she says.

Those words are too much for Dad, who immediately begins crying after being surprised and moved by his daughter’s gift.

Ephesians 6:4 “And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.”
