Many have been using boats to help rescue people who've been stranded by rising floodwaters, but as a picture shared to Reddit shows, even those with smaller watercraft are joining in the effort.

In the amazing image, a grandmother sits in her completely flooded entryway, waiting to be whisked away to safety on the jet ski by a volunteer.

One Redditor commented on how this is the kind of inspirational photo Houstonians needed to lift their spirits in these dark and scary times, "There's something so amazing about seeing strangers and communities coming together to help one another."
