Lisa Steins (Mount Orab, OH)—Earlier this month, Lisa Steins stopped at a Kroger grocery store to pick up some flowers for a friend in hospice. A friend who not long after passed away.

According to a WKRC-TV report, Glenda Bartley, a longtime employee at the store, donated a cartload of flowers for Steins to take to the hospice center so that everyone there would receive some.

After Steins distributed the flowers to the center's patients and nurses, she returned home and she posted her gratitude on Kroger's website. Soon there were 100,000 likes.

Glenda BartleyThe story doesn't end there, though. Amazingly, both women attest to the fact that it was divine intervention that started the whole thing rolling.

Bartley had reportedly already begun filling a cart with flowers before Steins arrived. "The Lord said 'There you go,'" she said. "[Steins] decided to stop here and was working both ways that morning."

Steins noted that the hospice friend she had originally gone to the store to purchase flowers for was "a strong Believer in God and is [now] smiling down on all this that took place."
