He was on his lunch break when he came upon a homeless woman he hadn't seen before in the community.

He asked her if she'd eaten. She said no. Rivers told CNN, "God put it on my heart to get her lunch."

The Wuhan crisis is bringing out the best in people, displayed by this cop, as well as the worst, as displayed by the cop who ticketed Easter Sunday worshipers in Mississippi.

The cop probably stands a greater chance of having COVID 19 than does the homeless woman.

If she gets it, she will sue. Win the Homeless Lottery.

Having snarked... I will now say... This was a nice gesture.

This is always happening, you just don't hear about it. And what did Christ say about giving? Matthew 6:3 But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.

The reason being not to do it for show but for the glory of God.

There are "christians" who loudly proclaim their "christianity"

and there are Christians, who by their very actions, proclaim loudly who their are without saying a word

+1 Very simple statement. I will use it in future. Pissing contests with “Christians” have always been tiresome. When I worked in Corona, CA. I and my coworkers never accepted $ for cigarettes when they approached us. “By the Grace of God. There go I “. 👍

Nope - he said, "Up against the wall, mutha"

The citizens said, "Ain't no wall"

He said, "Find one"
