Justice Smith was walking with his five-year-old son Justus Mateo when they encountered a homeless man standing on the median in the road.
Smith wrote on Facebook that he wanted to give the man some money, but didn't have any cash on hand. That's when Justus' eyes lit up.
Smith wrote, "Uncoached, he insisted that I give the man the 30 cents he had in his pocket. It's almost as if he heard my thoughts and responded out loud."
Smith was thrilled at the idea that Justus wanted to give the man some money, but was worried how the man would react just to getting just a couple of coins.
Luckily, he didn't have anything to worry about. "And my God… The smile on that man's face lit UP the intersection and he said to Justus, 'God bless you little man! Thank you so much,'" he wrote.
According to Good News Network, Smith also believes that his son started a chain reaction of kindness, as other people rolled down their windows to donate, too.
He said, "Our little boy, without even realizing it, reminded me once again by his actions that it's always about the heart. It doesn't matter how much you have or how little; giving in love and sincerity will often bless others more than we think."
