One comment in particular has garnered the attention of over 10,000 Facebook users who are dying to know who this anonymous stranger is and what fuels her compassionate kindness.

Jennica Kettle writes, “I won’t share who this lady is. But I do know her. I asked her once what I could do each day to be successful. Her respond [sic] surprised me. She said each day have reflection time, make a list and don’t leave you’re [sic] desk before the 10 most important things are done, and always give gratitude daily. I know her family kids and grandkids get together frequently to discuss how they can use the abundance and blessings they get to serve and give back to others. She is an inspiration every time I see her and is constantly giving freely. She is so full of Love for everyone and does what is needed without being asked.”

What a powerful testament to the kind of freely giving hearts we are called to have as Christians.

God bless this beautiful woman for setting an example for us all of what it truly means to be a cheerful giver. May she continue to inspire the masses with her bold generosity and selfless spirit.

“Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” ~2 Corinthians 9:6-7
