Your greatest act of kindness?

What is your greatest act of kindness? I was working around Ft Gay, West Virginia on the railroad tracks in the late fall of 2001. The way that I usually drove home was blocked because of an accident so I took an alternate route. As I drove, I noticed this young man walking with a thin jacket on and it was cold that evening. I stoped and asked if he wanted a ride. When he got in the truck I asked where he was going. "I just want to go home", he said."Where's home", I asked. " Honduras" he said "but I have family in Houston Texas. " I came here to work, worked two weeks and got no pay". My heart was broke. How could somebody do this to this poor kid. I drove him to the Greyhound bus station in Ashland,Kentucky. There I bought him a bus ticket to Houston and gave him money to eat on. I walked away from that bus station feeling like a million dollars. When I think about all of the circumstances that led up to this, first the way I always drove home was blocked. Second, I never cary that much money to work, and that day I had around three hundred dollars. I believe someone was praying for this young man and God sent me to get him.
