Man saves woman stranded by the road, 3 years later helps her become a nurse

Sometimes people come into our lives for no apparent reason, and all of sudden we know that our lives will be forever changed by their presence. One such heartwarming story features two unlikely characters changing each other’s lives in the most unexpected of ways. It would seem that their faith brought them together in both their hours of need, tying them together forever. When this story broke, people across the US were shocked and warmed by it, but the two people featured in the story are the ones who truly had their lives changed. Tunde Hector and Chris Wright had no idea that a chance encounter on a rainy evening would bring them together in the manner it did. This is truly the tale of two-kind hearted people doing everything they can for their fellow human beings. So, take note and when you see someone in need do not hesitate to help them because you never know what circumstances have brought them there and how they will impact others lives in the future. Just like the movie, we can all afford to pay it forward!

Lost and Found

Tunde’s life was not how she imagined it would be. She had always aspired to finish nursing school, have a happy marriage, and a stable financial situation. Sadly, she was at rock bottom in all three aspects of her life. Her marriage had fallen apart and she was going through a bad divorce, her debts were piling up, and she could not afford to finish her nursing degree.

But someone was watching over her and was about to help her in a major way.

Just Have Faith

Tunde was from Georgia, and after her divorce had gone through she found herself in dire straits financially. Usually, you hope that after going through a life-changing event like divorce that things will begin to get better, but this was not the case for Tunde. Things continued to spiral out of control, and one day she found herself on the way to work, in the pouring rain, with barely any gas in her car, and only $5 to her name.

Since she had been unable to finish her nursing degree, she was working a job as a hospice care worker.

Rockbottom

Tunde was an active member of the Cornerstone Church in Athens, Georgia and it would seem like her constant prayers were answered by a fellow member of the congregation. As she did not have enough money to fill up her car on her way to the hospice center that day, the inevitable happened – she ran out of gas.

So, there she was stuck in the pouring rain knowing she needed to get to work but to do that she either had to walk or procure some gas for her car. It seemed like an insurmountable task at the time.

A Helping Hand

Tunde got the helping hand she needed, and it involved placing her trust in a stranger which is not advised but had a positive outcome in this instance. It was 2014 and Christ Wright drove by Tunde as she made her way in the torrential rain to get some gas for her car. He and his family were on their way to church and the image of the sodden woman trudging through the rain stayed with him as he arrived at the church doorstep.

As his family tumbled out of the car and made their way to the church he knew, without a shadow of a doubt what he needed to do.
