A heartwarming post shared on Facebook by Mary Mingo Williams from Port Arthur, Texas has captured the attention of thousands. In her post, she shares her experience of running out of gas on her way home from work and the unexpected acts of kindness that followed.

As Mary found herself stranded on a busy road, she was met with honks and indifference from passing vehicles. However, everything changed when a group of soldiers and a compassionate stranger came to her aid.
Mary describes how these kindhearted individuals helped her push her car for an impressive distance, from the Motiva Terminal Gate to the Citco station on Gulfway Drive.

Moved by their generosity, Mary asked if she could take their picture to show the world that there are still young men out there who are willing to stop and assist a woman in need. And their response only added to her admiration for them. Instead of accepting a generous offer of money, these soldiers declined, stating that they were simply doing what they were taught to do.

But the acts of kindness didn’t stop there. The same stranger who offered the soldiers money also filled Mary’s car with gasoline and insisted that she keep the money she had in her pocket. This unexpected encounter reminded Mary that when you have faith, God always provides a helping hand, no matter the obstacles.
