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.
