"I never pray, and I prayed yesterday morning," Cassandra Orozco told FOX 35 News.

"You know what I need. Just please give it to me," she prayed.

Hours later, she believes God responded to her prayer.

Cassandra pulled into a gas station to fill up her tank and there was a gift card taped to the pump.

Cassandra says she looked around the gas station in disbelief, then took a picture of the gas pump and gift card for social media.

Attached to the gift card was a picture of a baby. Eleanor-Josephine was stillborn on Sept. 11, 2015. Her mother, Natalie, has been performing acts of kindness in her honor.

She bought gift cards at different stores, made kits for the homeless, paid the meals of random strangers and bought pizzas for local fire stations, FOX 35 reported.

"To be blessed by someone who doesn't want anything in return. It is amazing, ya know? I want Eleanor-Josephine's memory to live on forever," Cassandra said.

Cassandra says Natalie's act of kindness changed her life and she plans to pay it forward once she's back on her feet.
