BI took to his Facebook page with a clip showing him and the old man’s first encounter, and then the second. The man couldn’t remember who BI was until he handed him cash, and then he remembered that day the stranger blessed him.

The man was wearing the same cloths he was the first time, despite telling BI he was going to buy clothes, and that did not even worry the incredible giver. BI just wanted the man to know that he is loved, by both him and God.
