2 Samuel 19:39
“So all the people crossed the Jordan, and then the king crossed over. The king kissed Barzillai and gave him his blessing, and Barzillai returned to his home.”

One of the few people who helped David when he fled from the palace fearing his son Absalom was Barzillai, the Gileadite. He with a couple of other guys brought David and his men bedding and bowls and articles of pottery. They also brought wheat and barley, flour and roasted grain, beans and lentils, honey and curds, sheep, and cheese.
Later on, before David died, he remembered the kindness that Barzillai had shown and told Solomon to show kindness to the sons of Barzillai when he became king.

It’s always great if we can remember the kindness that people have shown us in our times of distress and do a kind act in return. Nothing to lose, everything to gain.
