Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Birthday cake


--by brindlegirl, posted Jan 25, 2025
It feels so good to be able to give. And we are so much more blessed to give than those who receive from us.

I have a friend who lives in Nigeria. A mother of four beautiful girls who I met online. We chat often. Have never met. But she is a fellow sister in Christ of mine.

A year ago I made the decision to give to her whenever I can. She never once asked for money but wept when I offered to buy her children a cake every year for their birthday.

This is such an extravagant treat for them. A cake. Something which my boys receive yearly.

She sent me this photo of her daughter with the cake. And get this ... she took the cake to her daughter's school and church group so she could share with others who are underprivileged.
