A police officer’s Facebook post has gone viral, about an encounter with a woman and her son who approached his vehicle. Read his post below.
This lady saw me parked at a City park this morning and decided to stop. She exited her vehicle with her two children and approached me as I was seated in my patrol car.
She simply stated that she wanted to pray for me. Specifically for my safety. I expressed my gratitude the best I could, but she really has no idea how much that meant to me.
Her little boy handed me a wilted flower that looked as if it had been in his pocket for a week.
At that moment, it was the most beautiful flower I’d ever seen. My prayer is that sharing this encounter will encourage many to give people a chance, regardless of race or profession.
You simply cannot judge an entire group of people because of the actions of some. Don’t hate evil more than you love good.
The post was shared thousands of times by many who were touched by the message. These are the kind of interactions that happen everyday around the country, that we’d love to see more of in the media.
