Bonnie Monroe and her son were having dinner together when Bonnie noticed a homeless man asking other people for food.
She saw that everyone ignored him and was hoping he'd come to their table.
When he didn't, Bonnie watched him walk away, but then she felt something tell her to go after him, so she did just that.
"As I watched him walk away from the restaurant something (God) told me, 'Don't let him get away. Go get him!' Being obedient, I jumped up and chased him down," Bonnie says.
Bonnie invited the man, named Byron, to eat with them. He was hesitant at first, but eventually, Byron sat down with them and ate.
