What would you do if you found $36,000?  Well Rachel Castillo might give you a new perspective. 

Rachel Castillo, a server at a Miami Beach golf course, uncovered $36,000 in January on a Miami Beach bench while working. She decided go turn in the money giving credit to her faith for helping her make the decision.  

"I believe in the Bible. I'm a Christian and the Bible says, 'Do not steal, do not lie,'" said Castillo. "If you do what's right, if you live the right way, you'll be taken care of." 

Castillo contacted authorities, who then traced the owner to an incorrect address that from an ID tag found that was left behind in the money bag. Police eventually identified the owner, 76-year-old Noberto Nodarse, who verified the money belonged to him.

There are reports that the man suffers from Alzheimer's dementia and resides in an assisting living facility now which is why he was harder to get ahold of.

"We really don't know how the money ended up there. He left it there at some point," said Miami Beach Police Sgt. Bobby Hernandez, who said he was shocked by Castillo's honesty. "One thing is to say to do the right thing and it's another to do it," he said praising Castillo's decision. 

Authorities kept the money in a special account pending its collection and told Castillo if no one claimed the missing money in 90 days, she would get to keep the money. 

Castillo said she did not receive a reward for her good deed, but that she believes her reward will come from a "higher power." NBC Miami reported that a certificate of appreciation is expected to be awarded.
