officer saves choking child

As parents, we try our best to keep our kids safe from harm. But it’s not our hands that protect them, it’s God’s hands that truly watch over them.

He goes before them in ways we can’t see. In this story, God placed a good officer right where this mother needed him most.

The whole thing started when this frantic mother spotted the deputy and waved him down.

Her little boy had something stuck in his throat, and she had no clue what it was.

The three-year-old could barely breathe. He was completely terrified, and you can just imagine how scared his mama was too.

But this deputy knew exactly what to do. He bent the little boy down and patted his back just right.

Within moments, a coin fell right out of the child’s mouth.

The boy could finally breathe normally again. That scary object turned out to be a quarter.

The relieved mother called the officer “the guardian angel.” She knew God had sent the right person at exactly the right time to save her precious child.
