Amanda Riggan, a FedEx driver from South Carolina, experienced a moment of divine inspiration while doing her regular rounds. During one stop, a woman shared that her husband was battling cancer, and Riggan, sensing the woman’s need for support, stayed briefly to listen. As Riggan continued her route, she felt a strong pull to return and offer more than just a listening ear. Her heart was pounding, and she realized she had to go back.
She turned around and drove back to the woman’s home, where the woman was visibly moved by Riggan’s return. When the woman opened the door, tears flowed, and Riggan embraced her, offering a prayer for her family and her husband’s health. The encounter, filled with compassion and shared humanity, made the woman feel supported and not alone in her struggles.
Riggan shared the story on Facebook, where the video went viral, resonating with thousands of people. With over 100,000 engagements and almost half a million shares, her message about listening to the “divine voice” urging us to act in kindness gained widespread attention. She encouraged others to follow the gentle tugs on their hearts and act on them, no matter how busy life gets.
In addition to her work as a FedEx driver, Riggan is known for her community involvement. She coaches a sports team, works with the Board of Disabilities, and founded Hungry Heroes, a nonprofit organization that supports first responders by providing meals. Riggan’s story is a powerful reminder of how small acts of kindness can have a lasting impact.
