Two grandparents’ overjoyed response to pregnancy news is everything. Their delightfully genuine happy and elated reactions are enough to bring a tear or two to your eyes. Watch the short video to see how grandma and grandpa acted when they learned another grandchild was on the way.

The Lord blesses and touches our lives in an endless string of ways, many of which we likely don’t even realize. But when it comes to His blessings, is there anything better than a grandchild? Of course, all the grandparents reading this responded enthusiastically and emphatically, “No!”

For grandma and grandpa, grandchildren are the greatest thing in the world. Don’t believe me? Watch a grandmother or a grandfather and see how they light up when their grandchild enters the room. For grandma and grandpa, everyone else in the room has essentially disappeared. It’s sure to be one of the sweetest things you’ll ever witness.

In a clip posted on social media, a grandmother interacting with one of her grandchildren notices something odd. She picks up a subtle but telling message on her grandchild’s shirt. Grandma then starts asking questions, wondering what it could all mean.

She is probably secretly thinking and hoping about whether she has another grandchild coming. She then asks the question.

“Wait, is something happening?” she asks her daughter-in-law.

When the grandmother’s suspicions are finally confirmed that another baby is on the way, she quickly becomes overwhelmed with happiness.

Grandma begins shrieking with joy.

“Oh my God!” she says.

Then, it’s all smiles and hugs as everyone embraces, showing how much joy children add to the world before they are even born.

Grandpa is also as happy as can be after hearing that he will soon have another little grandchild crawling and running around.

What an absolutely beautiful scene. That lucky child has a big, beautiful family waiting for him or her.

Proverbs 17:6 “Children’s children are the crown of old men, and the glory of children is their fathers.”

An elderly man was brought to tears when an entire Cracker Barrel sang him “Happy Birthday.” The show of love and kindness overwhelmed the gentleman and caused him to become emotional. Watch the unexpectedly sweet musical performance that caused the elderly man to shed some tears.

Many people do not celebrate or recognize their birthdays; some may even get upset if you acknowledge the day of their birth. Of course, that’s because a birthday is essentially the ultimate sign of aging. Honestly, who wants to be reminded that they are another year older? Most people, as it turns out. 

But then again, aging is a process that none of us have any control over or say so about. Since human beings have yet to come up with a way to stop or rewind time, we might as well enjoy getting older. Celebrate that birthday, enjoy a piece of birthday cake or go out to dinner on your big day. Do something to commemorate and remember yet another birthday!

In a clip posted on social media, a man celebrating his 89th birthday at Cracker Barrel received a special surprise. The video shows the elderly gentleman sobbing at a table as everyone in the restaurant sings to him, “Happy Birthday.” What a lovely display of love and kindness that obviously meant a great deal to the birthday boy.

While he likely touched and moved that a group of strangers cared enough about him to perform “Happy Birthday” for him, I suppose he could have become emotional for other reasons. Maybe he was horrified by the collective musical performance. Or maybe (and this would be me) he was terribly embarrassed and upset that someone in his party had told the staff at Cracker Barrel that it was his birthday.

Psalm 71:9 “Do not give me up when I am old; be my help even when my strength is gone.”

A young man learned he was a big brother and immediately broke down in tears. The little guy wanted a younger brother, and when he realized his dream had become reality, it was too much for him. Watch the sweet and heartwarming moment to see the young man’s emotional reaction to seeing his little brother for the first time.

Siblings have a unique, unbreakable bond. When they are little, it seems anything but special and unbreakable. Instead, most sibling interactions are marked by fights, tears and heated, often loud disagreements. Every parent knows and understands full well what it means for there to be sibling rivalries.

As children grow and reach adolescence and, eventually, adulthood, those petty childhood disagreements typically disappear and melt away. What remains between siblings is usually a friendship. But it’s much more than just a friendship. What exists is a deep, unbreakable bond and relationship that has been forged and strengthened over many years.

A YouTube clip shows the beginning of a relationship between an older brother and his infant younger brother. The clip begins with the young man entering a hospital room. His look is one of excitement, anticipation and hope.

The video’s narrator states that he has desperately wanted a younger brother. Up until this moment, his family has only had girls born. All he wants is a brother. Is that too much to ask?

Once he reaches the hospital bed, he’s informed that he has his long-awaited little brother. Hearing the news of a little brother is too much for the young man. He immediately buries his face in his hands and starts sobbing loudly and uncontrollably.

Later in the clip, the infant is placed in his arms. He cannot believe what he’s holding. He finally has a little brother!

What a sweet and heartwarming video that shows the special relationship between siblings.

Proverbs 17:17 “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”

Alex Rodriguez nails a half-court shot and earns $10K for a student. Apparently, superior baseball skills are easily transferable and translate well to the basketball court. Watch the short but incredible video of a former Major League Baseball player sinking a difficult shot on the hardwood, which resulted in thousands of dollars for a student.

Not all sports are created equal. Some are more difficult and require more skill than others. That might be a somewhat controversial statement, but it’s true, nonetheless. I mean, there is simply no way to honestly compare table tennis or darts to boxing, football, basketball or baseball.

Yes, all those participants are technically classified as athletes. But that would be like calling Tom Hanks and someone who appears in a low-budget, poorly written, and directed student film both actors. It might be correct in a general way, but the level of skill, ability and professionalism between them could not be any greater.

However, as one video posted on YouTube shows, former New York Yankee and Texas Ranger Alex Rodriquez might have also made a heck of a basketball player. The clip begins with the former Seattle Mariner standing at center court, holding a basketball, while he signals at the crowd, trying to get them involved.

A few seconds later, after flipping the ball out in front of him, it’s go-time. He grabs the ball, gathers himself and then heaves it up toward the basket, hoping it finds its way into the basket. Luckily, enough for Alex and the student he was shooting for, his shot banked off the backboard and into the basket.

The arena erupts in pure pandemonium after the ball falls into the basket. People jump and shout, unable to believe what they have just witnessed. Hugs and high-fives all around follow as people celebrate Alex’s incredible shot, which turned out to be $10K for one lucky student.

1 Timothy 4:8 “For bodily exercise is profitable for a little; but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life which now is, and that of which is to come.”

Tim Allen received a surprise as a young man beside him shared a hysterical message. The little guy found himself sitting next to the popular actor and comedian and took the opportunity to do something unexpected and hilarious. Watch the short clip to see the laugh-out-loud message he had for Tim.

An actor’s job is to play characters and bring those roles to life on the big screen and TV. Throughout their career, they will likely play hundreds of different characters. Once that film or television show ends, the actor or actress is off to the next project to play another character.

However, nearly every actor has a specific role and character with which they are most closely associated. Regardless of what that person is in next, we always see them as this character. Tim Allen‘s most iconic and memorable character is Tim Taylor, the loud, always grunting, accident-prone family man on Home Improvement who hosted a home improvement show on the sitcom.

In a hilarious clip posted on social media, a young man found himself sitting next to Tim Allen at a hockey game. When he spotted his famous neighbor, he knew exactly what to do. He wrote Tim a message, but it wasn’t just any message.

The video shows the little guy with a pen and a piece of paper as he hurriedly writes something down. The text in the video shows that he has written, “I don’t think so, Tim.” Of course, this is what Al, his assistant on Home Improvement, would condescendingly say every time Tim said or did something wrong on the show.

When the little guy showed his message to Tim, he reacted accordingly. He shakes a fist in disgust, causing the little boy to turn back to the camera with a huge smile.

The video ends with Tim taking a picture with the young man who shared the hilarious message.

What a sweet and beautiful moment!

While we might understand, intellectually, that God loves us, many of us struggle to receive that love. Perhaps we grew up with critical parents who withdrew relationship when we messed up or are simply dealing with the effects of living in our broken world where even our healthiest friends and family members love us imperfectly. But God wants to help us grasp, and find security in, His perfect, unconditional, and never-ending love for each of us.

A couple’s tearjerking wedding ceremony change captures hearts. While this may have deviated from the norm, it was a sweet and simple move that likely meant a lot to everybody involved. Watch this short clip to see how one couple made an adorable change to their wedding ceremony. However, make sure you have the tissues nearby before hitting play.

Weddings are important and beautiful ceremonies that recognize and celebrate two people making a lifetime commitment to one another. For better or worse, no matter what life may throw at them, they have agreed to stay by each other’s side. Who doesn’t love attending weddings?

Those ceremonies are very emotional and full of traditions. Anyone who has ever been to a wedding has a good idea of the flow and how things will go, for the most part. They know to stand as the bride makes her grand entrance, when to applaud after the officiant announces the couple as husband and wife and to wait to be escorted out of the sanctuary by one of the ushers.

In a clip posted on social media, a couple significantly changed their wedding service. Instead of a cute little girl fulfilling the role of the flower girl, the groom’s grandparents did that job.

The video captures the elderly couple making their way down the aisle while tossing flower petals on the ground. As soon as they begin throwing out the petals, the groom becomes emotional. He is unable to keep the tears from flowing. Several times in the short video, the young man has to wipe tears from his eyes.

When the grandparents reach the altar, they greet the groom with a loving hug and kisses on the cheeks.  

What a beautiful and sweet idea! Including the grandparents undoubtedly meant a lot to them and the groom and likely brought many others to tears at the wedding.

Ep 1.1 Just an introduction of ourselves. How we got together and our goal for this project.

Experiencing the fullness of heaven starts with childlike faith. It’s through trusting, seeking, and following Jesus that we begin to unlock a deeper intimacy with Him—one that opens the door to the heavenly realms where He reigns. As we walk with Him, He gently invites us into more of His presence. All it takes is a willing heart... and one faithful step forward.

A dad’s beautiful words and surprise graduation gift brought his son to tears. The beautiful, heartwarming father-son moment is enough to bring most people, even the most stoic, to tears. Watch the video to see how it all unfolds and to hear the lovely words the father shares with his son. But be sure you have tissues nearby.

Graduations from high school or college are moments and cause for celebration. They are massive educational accomplishments and significant milestones in life that ought to and deserve to be recognized. Those ceremonies are the culmination of a lot of study, hard work, persistence and determination.

Additionally, graduations are typically emotional events. Friends and family will often share how they feel about the graduate. In a clip posted on YouTube, a father used the occasion to tell his son how big of a blessing he is to him and how much he loves and cares for him.

“Don’t ever think I ain’t got you, man,” the proud father tells his son. “You’ve been blessing me all your life. Don’t ever think I ain’t got you. You’ve been a blessing to me and Mama all your life. And I’m going to go all out for you.”

At this point, the young man, touched by his father’s lovely words, has tears streaming down his face.

But that wasn’t all. 

As the family walks together in a parking lot, likely leaving the graduation ceremony, the father has a big surprise for his son. A set of keys is unexpectedly placed in the young man’s hands. He has just been given a brand-new car!

The young man is left speechless, overwhelmed by all the love and appreciation his father is showing him.

The father’s sweet words for his son continue.

“You’re a blessing to me, man,” Dad says to the young man. “You’re a blessing to me, man.”

The clip ends with the young man and his father sharing a warm and loving embrace.

How could you ever watch this moment and not have tears welling up in your eyes?

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

Danny Devito shared his joy about being a grandfather. The longtime Hollywood actor could not contain his happiness and delight about the two most recent additions to his family. Watch the short but sweet clip in which the actor expresses his love and joy for his grandchildren.

Being a parent is an absolute blessing from the good Lord. Children are, without question, the biggest and best gift we can receive on this Earth. As every parent knows, once those children enter the world and your home, your life will never be the same.

However, as great as being a parent is, some may argue that being a grandparent is even better. Think about it for a second. Mom and Dad, except when at work, are with their children 24 hours, seven days a week. Parents are around for everything regarding their children, including late nights, tantrums and every other less-than-pleasant moment.

Grandparents, for the most part, do not have to deal with any of that. They get to enjoy all the fun moments as they spoil their grandchildren rotten. Danny, like other grandparents, is also enjoying his new title: Grandpa. In a clip posted on social media, Danny mentions that his daughters have recently had babies and that he loves being a grandfather.

“In two years, my daughters have had a baby each,” he said. “And since these babies have been born, I’m just incorrigible. You got to tamper me down in the joy department, you know what I’m saying?”

He adds that he is very quick when showing photos of his grandchildren.

“In a minute, I’ll take out the phone and show you every picture,” he said. “I’m so lucky. Blessings showered down on me, and I wish it for everybody.”

What incredibly sweet words from a loving, overjoyed and blessed grandfather.

Proverbs 17:6 “Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.”

Why do so many hate the idea of the Rapture? Who planted seeds of doubt? Only the Holy Bible, can be trusted as the TRUE authority on this essential doctrine. Anyone who's read Revelation, knows.... you do NOT want to be left behind... ~ UpTalk
