An elderly couple in Paris, France, captured hearts with the absolute sweetest photo moment.

Between work obligations and family responsibilities, life can be a demanding and stressful experience. That’s why it’s always a good idea for your physical and mental health to get away for a little bit and go on vacation. If nothing else, enjoy what is often called a “staycation,” where you don’t go into the office but remain home for a few days.

But if you’re looking to spend that vacation time traveling, there are thousands of places to visit in the world, depending, of course, on your budget. Many people prefer to go somewhere warm and tropical, so Florida, California and Mexico are always popular tourist spots. Still, other individuals may opt for different locales, such as Europe and Asia.

No matter where you decide to go, vacation is about relaxing, spending time and making memories with the people you love the most. A short but sweet video posted on social media captures an elderly couple making memories during their visit to Paris, France.

The 25-second clip begins with the man holding a camera, looking for someone to take a photo of his wife and himself. Eventually, seconds into the video, someone comes to the elderly couple’s aide and agrees to take their picture together.

The video then zooms in on the elderly man smiling and standing behind his wife, who is in a wheelchair. The two of them pose for the camera with big smiles on their faces.

What a sweet and precious photo!

The video's text indicates that the man and his wife were visiting Paris as they crossed the City of Lights off their bucket list.

Vacations are about having fun and relaxing, but they’re also about making memories with those around you that will last a lifetime.

Colossians 3:14 “And more than all, have love; the only way in which you may be completely joined together.”

One young man fulfilled his promise to his mom by surprising her with a new car, which brought her to tears.

There is so much wrong and evil about this broken and fallen world. There aren’t many people, if any, you can place 100% trust and certainty in today. Politicians and others in leadership positions constantly say one thing, promise this or that, and then turn around and do the exact opposite, breaking that promise. Essentially, people aren’t great at keeping their word.

When it comes down to it, that’s all we have, right? If I can’t trust what you say and that you will keep your word, then why bother talking to that person? That is why marriage vows and other sacred promises are so important. The foundation of those relationships is based on individuals keeping their words and promises.

A clip posted on YouTube captures a young man fulfilling a promise he made to his mother. As a 10-year-old, Tyler told his mom he would buy her a new car. The clip mentions that as a child, he saw how his mother struggled with her vehicle, and he wanted to do something to help and show her how much he loved her.

Well, 11 years later, as a 21-year-old, that young man came through on that promise. He kept his word to his mother. It’s a moment that is likely to bring tears to your eyes, like it did for the boy’s mother.

In the video, the woman sits in the driver’s seat as Tyler asks her about the car’s comfortability before the big moment.

“Is the seat comfortable,” Tyler asks his mom.

“Very comfortable,” she says.

“Well, better get used to it because it’s your car,” Tyler tells her as he tries to hand her the keys.

She does not believe him, even going so far as to ask if he’s lying to her.

Tyler repeatedly confirms that, yes, the vehicle is hers. She then breaks into tears, unable to believe that her son has just gifted her a car.

What a sweet moment of a son keeping his word and fulfilling his promise to his mom.

2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slowing in keeping his word, as he seems to some, but he is waiting in mercy for you, not desiring the destruction of any, but that all may be turned from their evil ways.”

One bride’s emotional vow reading left her groom and their wedding guests in tears.

Marriage is a big step and commitment for every couple. During the lovely wedding ceremony, the bride and groom promise to stay with one another for the rest of their lives. It doesn’t matter the circumstance or situation – good, bad or indifferent – they agree to remain by each other’s side.

While a wedding and a marriage are about making and keeping promises to one another, they are also about doing things to show the other person how much you care and love them. There are an endless number of ways to show your significant other love. It doesn’t matter what it is as long as your act shows that you did it for them and considered their thoughts and feelings.

A simple gesture or act could mean the world to your significant other. A heartwarming, tear-jerking act captured how one woman used her wedding vows to show how much she cares for and loves her husband-to-be. But it wasn’t so much what she said, but how she said them that had the groom and their wedding guests bawling.

While standing at a microphone and reading from a small booklet, the bride surprised everyone at the wedding, including the groom, by speaking in Armenian. Seconds after she started speaking in Armenian, it was too much for the groom. Overcome with emotion, he immediately turns away from the camera.

She begins her vows by saying, “I promise to learn Armenian because I know how important it is to you.”

When the groom turns back around to face the bride, he is on the verge of tears, eyes red and his lip quivering at the woman’s surprising and beautiful act.

The camera also catches several guests wiping their eyes, who were also moved by the bride’s loving gesture.

She ends her moving vows by promising to remain by his side through life’s highs and lows, even if that means going to “the place where the donkey dies.” It’s unclear what that means, but it gets a big laugh.

Genesis 2:24 “Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.”

Have you ever faced a task bigger than what you could handle? We began with fear, "What if this...," The humiliation, the feeling of not being enough and even that imposter syndrome. Yet.. God made it clear that he is directing our steps into the unknown and by the end, we can look back at all the times he took a step with us. Going from fearful to faithful.

One man played a prank on his coworker and turned his entire workstation into a LEGO masterpiece.

Everyone must make a living and find a way to pay those pesky and annoying bills that seem to arrive every month. For most people, the answer to their bill issue is to get a 9-to-5 position that will pay enough to meet those financial obligations. That weekly or bi-weekly paycheck always makes going into the office worth it.

While we should all be grateful when the Lord provides us a way to make a living, working an everyday job can get old fast. Going to the same place and doing the same thing Monday through Friday can become dull and might even make you resent your place of work.

Well, one man found a way to bring a little change and add fun to his work life. Likely inspired by the classic television show The Office, one man played a hilarious prank on his coworker who was on vacation for two weeks.

In the clip posted on YouTube, the young man announces that he has decided to turn his coworker’s workstation, including his desk and computer, into the LEGO version. He only has two weeks to complete his prank, so he has to work fast.

His transformation begins easily enough with the contents of the coworker’s mug—pens, highlighters, scissors and the mug itself. Then, he quickly moves on to the stapler, tape dispenser and even the trash can.

Then, the young man unveils the LEGO computer screens that he has expertly crafted using the tiny toy blocks. Hilariously enough, the computer monitors are even built to make it appear his coworker is in the middle of a game of solitaire.

His handiwork is complete as he puts the final piece in place. He carries a smooth, large brown LEGO surface that will now serve as his coworker’s desk. Once he locks it into place, the transformation is finally finished.

When the man, Jerry, returns to find his workstation, which is now a LEGO masterpiece, he takes it all in stride. There were several laughs, and he even critiqued what he could have or should have done better.

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

The day began like any other—just another morning of lesson plans, grading, and greeting students. But when her phone buzzed in her pocket, it didn’t feel like an ordinary day. This teacher finds out she’s pregnant, and her co-workers react with pure joy! She answers the phone call that would change everything. 

On the other end of the line was a nurse delivering the news she had waited seven years to year. “Hey! You are pregnant,” the nurse said. The look on her face was one of pure joy and shock. It was as if the world had stopped for a moment. 

After seven long years of battling infertility, endless doctor appointments, and heartache after heartache, this news felt almost too good to be true. The good Lord knows this woman had to have cried, prayed, and pleaded for this moment, wondering if she would ever get to become a mother. And now, standing in her classroom, her knees nearly gave as she let the good news sink in. She no doubt felt so many raw emotions at once, like gratitude, joy, and disbelief. She pressed her hand to her mouth, hardly able to believe life was growing inside her.

Within seconds, word spread quickly, and her fellow friends and co-workers came rushing out of their classrooms. One by one, they gathered around her, eyes wide with excitement. They began jumping up and down, some squealing, others shouting with joy!  A few twirled in celebration, and before she knew it, she was wrapped in a sea of arms—friends who had stood by her through the toughest days and now were here to share in her joy. The joy in the air was infectious. It was as if the entire hallway had become a stage for a spontaneous celebration of life and love, all because God had answered her prayers.

For seven years, this teacher had waited for this moment. Seven years of longing, doubt, and countless prayers whispered into the night. It had been a journey of faith—one that had stretched her heart in ways she never expected. But now, standing in the middle of her friends’ God had answered her long-awaited prayer–a baby! Her struggles weren’t forgotten, but they had been redeemed. 

In that hallway, surrounded by laughter, tears, and heartfelt congratulations, it was clear: sometimes, the greatest miracles come after the longest waits. And when they do, they bring with them a flood of joy that makes every tear and prayer along the way worth it. It isn’t amazing the beautiful way God works through our most difficult seasons of waiting? 

1 Samuel 1:27 "For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition that I made to him."

After decades of chronic illness AND six near-death experiences, I felt that I was going to die soon and had a very very very poor quality of life, so I SINCERLY asked GOD what to do and he revealed what to do to be healed of most of my ailments. I do believe in time that GOD will take away me severe pain also. Bible, holistic living, and TTA to experience God's transformative power.

For one high school volleyball team in Colorado, a dream they never expected to come true became a reality when Selena Gomez showed up at their game. Telluride Middle/High School students had playfully created a sign asking the superstar to perform the national anthem at one of their home games. They had no idea their request would lead to an unforgettable encounter with the singer and actress.

The sign, held up by the volleyball team, read, “Selena, will you sing the national anthem at our game?” They weren’t expecting her to respond—after all, how often does a pop star come to high school games? But little did they know Selena was in town for a weekend festival. She saw the sign and did something incredibly kind and sweet.

Selena showed up in the gym and was met with stunned silence. No one could believe she was there! It took a few moments for everyone to realize that the woman walking in was, in fact, the very star they had invited. From the video, the silence quickly turned into an eruption of excitement. The girls shouted, “Selena!” Within seconds, students and fans rushed to greet her. Selena not only said hello to the girls but stayed for quite a while, happily interacting with the teens and taking photos with them. 

Even though Selena didn’t end up singing the national anthem, none of the teens minded in the least. Her presence alone seemed to make the day special.

In a post on social media later, Selena shared her joy in being able to surprise the team. “They asked!! Couldn’t help it, it’s my first time in Telluride!” she captioned the pictures of her visit. Her warmth and kindness shone through, giving these teens a memory they will forever cherish.

Selena’s visit was heartwarming for these teenagers when a simple act of kindness brightened their day. What started as a simple request on Instagram became an incredible moment these teens won't soon forget. Not every day, a pop star comes to a high school volleyball game. Thank God for unexpected moments that remind us of the importance of making time for others.

Hebrews 13:16 "And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased."

You’ll never believe how this 96-year-old grandpa has the best birthday celebration at the ballpark. When he shared his simple wish, his granddaughter Courtney rallied the family to make it happen. The wish was simple: to spend the day watching his favorite baseball team at the South Padres game with his family. But the bigger wish was to see himself on the jumbotron. 

As they arrived at the stadium, one family member proudly held a huge sign that read, “Happy 96th Birthday, Grandpa.” It didn’t take long for the excitement to spread among the crowds who saw the sign. Fans started cheering as the group made their way to their seats, giving Grandpa many birthday wishes to have a great birthday. 

His granddaughter Courtney captured it all on camera, too. “It’s amazing to witness the goodness of people,” Courtney wrote alongside the video, capturing the overwhelming kindness from everyone around them. As the game progressed, many things made the day even more special. One woman caught a foul ball and didn’t hesitate to give it to the special birthday boy instead of keeping it. Of course, there was still one final wish that everyone hoped would come true–to see Grandpa on the big screen. It wasn’t too long before Grandpa saw himself up there. He couldn't help but smile and wave! 

All in all, it was the perfect birthday celebration. This elderly gentleman got to spend the day with his loved ones, take home a foul ball as a keepsake, and finally get his wish to be on the big screen. Stories like this remind us how beautiful life is when we celebrate with loved ones. It’s not the things that matter but making memories together. 

Psalm 118:24 "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."

Imagine the transformative power of a small, fluffy pony trotting into a hospital room, bringing joy and comfort that brightens even the darkest day. A therapy pony brings comfort to hospital patients during an emotional visit.

While therapy dogs are well-known for their comforting presence, therapy ponies are making waves in the world of animal-assisted therapy, thanks to the dedicated work of Sarah Woodland. With her heart set on spreading joy, Sarah brings her charming ponies to visit those in need of a little extra cheer, including patients in hospitals and residents in nursing homes. Her ponies, often adorned with cute bows and outfits, add an extra touch of delight to their visits.

In a touching video shared online, Sarah captured the heartwarming moment when her ponies, Tinks and Poppy, met an elderly hospital patient. The small horses, dressed in adorable attire, trotted into the hospital room and immediately brightened the atmosphere. The patient’s reaction was priceless—pure joy and amazement.

As the elderly woman gently reached out to stroke Poppy, her face lit up with tears of happiness. The serene connection she shared with the pony was a poignant reminder of animals' profound impact on our well-being. Sarah, who was kneeling beside Poppy, looked on with evident emotion. 

Animals bring us comfort and joy in simple and profound ways. Their presence can calm our anxieties, offering unconditional love and companionship that brightens even the darkest days. Whether it's the soothing purr of a cat, a dog's wagging tail, or a horse's gentle nuzzle, animals have a unique ability to make us feel seen, understood, and cherished. They remind us of the beauty in everyday moments and teach us the value of kindness and connection, enriching our lives with their playful spirits and loyal hearts.

Sarah’s dedication goes beyond the visits themselves. She also ensures her ponies are impeccably groomed, sharing a heartwarming behind-the-scenes look at their preparation. The love and care she invests in her therapy ponies highlight the profound difference kindness and compassion can make in the lives of others.

1 Corinthians 16:14 "Let all that you do be done in love." 

A 6-year-old roamed around a hospital sharing the exciting news about his new heart with several hospital staff members.

A stay in the hospital, no matter the length of time, is never fun. Regardless of how friendly, caring and courteous the doctors and nurses are, a medical facility is a place no one wants to be in at any time. Of course, that is because being in the hospital means someone is sick and needs medical attention.

For that reason, hospitals are often frightening places. When one is administered to a hospital, many questions and scenarios will inevitably pop up in your head. Now, imagine you're a child who’s in the hospital because you badly need a new heart. That was the exact scenario facing 6-year-old John-Henry Lee.

A clip posted on YouTube catches the young man's excitement and utter joy as he walks around the Cleveland Clinic, informing hospital staff members of the good news.

"Phyllis, "I'm getting a new heart!" John-Henry tells one woman sitting down.

"What! Oh, my goodness, John-Henry!" she responds to the young man's good news.

While walking down the hallway, the 6-year-old meets another staff member and tells her the good news.

"I'm getting a new heart!" he says"

"I know! Yes!" the woman says as she gives John-Henry a high-five.

Right before getting on the elevator, John-Henry lets someone else know about his upcoming transplant surgery.

"I'm getting a new heart!" the sweet child says.

"Yeah, that's wonderful," the man standing outside the elevator responds.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, the young man was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, which is "a rare congenital heart condition where one side of the heart doesn't develop correctly," John-Henry has undergone several operations over the years to try and correct the condition.

However, doctors later determined that John-Henry needed a new heart. In May, John-Henry and his family learned of a match.

"When the transplant coordinator said they found his special heart, I immediately broke down," said John-Henry's mother, Sarah Lee.

A grandfather took an unexpected and heartwarming detour as a family arrived excited to meet a newborn baby.

Children are among the best ways the Lord blesses our lives. They will forever positively change and impact your life in every way imaginable. There is nothing quite like being a parent. Watching a youngster grow, learn and explore will fill you with immeasurable joy and contentment.

Everyone loves children, especially babies. Look at how people flock to newborns. Immediately after a child is born, many visitors, even people you haven’t seen in years, will visit and parade through the hospital room. Then, they all quietly await their turn to hold the young one.

That is the typical behavior of people after a child has been born. However, some people will become so concerned and consumed with the newborn and not the woman who had just given birth to the baby. They badly want to see the child that they forget about the exhausted mother whose body has just gone through a physically and mentally demanding ordeal.

A sweet video posted on social media shows that not everyone forgets about the mother after a child has been born. The clip begins with text explaining that a baby girl has just been born and shows a family excitedly rushing into the room to see the child.

However, one person, the grandfather, makes a detour. Instead of running up to the infant, he heads over to the hospital bed to see his baby, his daughter, who has just given birth.

After sneaking a peak at the child as he walks by, the grandfather comes over to his daughter and gives her a big, loving and warm embrace.

Yes, the birth of a child is exciting. It’s a new life that the Lord has brought into the world. However, let’s not forget those women who helped bring in those little miracles.

What a sweet, special and tear-jerking moment between father and daughter.

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

Consider the last time you felt cherished and as if you held infinite value. Sadly, many of us might encounter more criticism than affirmation and acceptance. But that is precisely why it’s so important that we recognize how God views us. Hear Reverend Kyle Norman’s and Chaka Heinze’s insights on how such understanding helps heal our wounds, remove unhealthy defensiveness, elevate our perspectives, and replace our insecurities with godly confidence.

A young man discovers he is being adopted in a beautiful surprise. Birthdays are often filled with cake, presents, and joyful celebrations, but for one young man, his special day brought an unexpected and life-changing surprise. Surrounded by the love of his foster parents, he had no idea that this birthday would mark the beginning of a new chapter in his life.

As the candles on his banana glowed warmly, he read the message tucked inside: a surprise awaited him outside. Eagerly, he followed his foster parents, who blindfolded him and handed him a bat. In front of him hung two piñatas—one labeled "Trip to Disney" and the other "Adoption."

With encouragement from both his foster mom and dad, he swung with all his might, the sound of cheers filling the air as he worked to knock them down. When both piñatas finally gave way, his foster mom gently instructed him to remove the blindfold.

As his eyes adjusted, he saw the remnants of the piñatas and the joyous expressions on his foster parents' faces. His foster mom, full of love and emotion, told him how much he meant to them, how deeply they cared for him, and that they wanted him to be a part of their forever home. It was at that moment that he realized—he was being adopted.

This beautiful surprise was more than just an announcement; it was proof of his foster parents' love and commitment to him. It was a moment that embodied Jesus' call to care for the orphaned, to welcome them into our hearts and homes just as God adopts us into His family.

The joy and love in that moment were undeniable, a true reflection of what it means to be cherished and wanted. For this young man, his birthday became more than just a celebration of another year—it became the day he found his forever family.

What a beautiful way to show someone they are loved, valued, and truly home. This story is a powerful reminder of the importance of family, the joy of adoption, and the unconditional love that binds us all together.

James 1:27 "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."

Unmet expectations, life’s uncertainties, and the difficulties we face can leave us feeling anxious and afraid. We might fear that God provide what we need or won’t come through in time. Yet, it is in those uncomfortable seasons that we often most experience God’s faithfulness. Join Reverend Jessica VanRoekel and Jennifer Slattery as they discuss week three of the Your Daily Bible Verse podcast episodes in their ongoing season titled Moses: From Fearful to Faithful.

A man in his 90s braved the world’s fastest zipline for the sweetest, most heartwarming reason possible.

Whether we’d like to admit it or not, everyone has fears. Some people fear spiders or anything that creeps and crawls around on the ground. Others don’t particularly enjoy flying and would rather get around by car, train or other transportation. Still, different individuals have a paralyzing fear of heights. Some people can only get a few off the ground before they start fearing for their safety.

Sometimes, fears are good and healthy and keep us safe when the threat and possibility of danger are very real. However, fear usually does nothing but hold us back from experiencing and doing new and exciting things. When we build up enough courage and force ourselves to face our fears, it is one of the greatest feelings in the world.

However, a 94-year-old man, David, refused to let fear hold him back from going down the world’s fast zipline. As the video posted on social media points out, David conquered the high-speed zipline in memory of his late wife, June.

The clip shows David putting on the helmet and the other proper gear needed to complete a successful zipline ride. Before taking on the world’s fastest zipline, David does one that has a maximum speed between 30 and 40 mph. After that one is complete, it’s on to the next zipline.

Then, David hops onto a truck that takes him to the top of a mountain, where the world’s fastest zipline is located. The text explains that the zipline reaches speeds near 100 miles per hour, which David easily completes.

The video explains that David’s zipline rides were part of his fundraising initiative for the hospice location that cared for his beloved wife near the end of her life.

What a sweet and emotional clip! It is sure to bring tears to the eyes of many.
