A white police officer stopped a young Black man’s car on a quiet street near the university and found his driving license had expired.
“Why are you driving with an expired license?” the officer asked.
The young man answered quietly: “They just fired me from my night job. The money I have left is only enough to eat, pay rent, and cover my bills. I’m from another state. I came here alone to study at university. And I have a job interview this morning.”
The officer could have applied the law and stopped him from driving. Instead he listened to his heart. He parked his police car, gently helped the young man straighten his tie, got into the passenger seat, and drove with him to the interview.
They walked in together. The officer apologized for the delay and explained the reason.They took a selfie together and wished him the best.
The young men got the job and later received a temporary driving permit until he could save enough to renew his license properly.
That’s humanity.

Hello to all my wonderful family and friends 🥹 My goal is to give a daily update and I’m sorry I haven’t been on that. I want all of you to know that our family is able to be somewhat uplifted because of ALL OF YOU!
Here is an update on our sweet boy 💕
Andy has been surrounded all daily by family and friends, his fellow guardsmen, soldiers, airmen, US Marshals, MPD, our local sheriff’s office, and many other law-enforcement representatives. They have all been such angels to all of us 🥹
We continue to have complete faith in a total healing of our sweet Andy. He is remaining stable, with good vital signs, and while being heavily sedated, he still continues to be very active. Moving his arms, legs, and mouth. His pupils are dilating normally and his brain pressure is normal. All huge wins!
He has absolute best neurosurgeon, ICU doctor, and so many nurses that are helping to sustain him. They are absolute angels in my eyes 🥹
We know there is a long road to go, but our faith keeps us hopeful. We remain grateful for the prayers and support of people all over the world. Our God is so good and I will continue to say this…Andy will have one heck of a testimony to share with all! We are praying for faith to be renewed in those who need it and for non-believers to come to know Jesus as they witness this miracle happening with our precious boy.
Again, we love and appreciate all of you. If anyone would like to visit, just message the day and time you’d like to come so we can notify the hospital staff so we can maintain organized visitations💕
