The post was shared by Trey Elliott’s mother, Brittany Elliott, on her Facebook page, which showed Trey praying for a Tulsa Police Officer.

It shows Trey on his knee with his tiny hand placed on the shoulder of the Tulsa police officer, who can be seen bending down. Both are with their eyes closed in prayer.

“Today, Trey (7) asked to pray for officers in the Tulsa Police Department,” Brittany posted on Facebook. “So that’s exactly what he did. This boy laid his little hands on officers to show them that we love and support them.”

“If this picture shows you anything, let it be to pray for those around you,” Brittany added.

If pictures can speak louder than words, then this is it. We can pray to God to restore peace among fellow citizens everywhere in the country and may justice prevail in our land.

Verse of the Day

“And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger. Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying which was told them concerning this Child. And all those who heard it marveled at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart. Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.”

Luke 2:16-20
