A few days ago, Young Braydon went with his mother to Walmart, one of the biggest sellers of groceries in the US. However, they had not been there long when his mother suddenly became worried upon learning that Braydon was gone.
Following a couple of moments of dread fuelled looking, his mom tracked down him.
Her first reaction was to scold him for not being by her side. But when she saw him kneel in front of a sign and pray, she stopped and thought about why. Then, at that point, she look to the wall.
The absence of a child, even if only for a while, is every parent’s greatest Fear. Actuality, it happens often, especially in environments with crowded populations, like shopping centers and major grocery shops. So it was for Braydon’s mother. She was desperate to finish her shopping as soon as possible at Walmart.
According to Faith Tap, Braydon’s mom said: “I experienced to hurry into Walmart. I walked around In order to be sure my son was right next to me.”
Though he wasn’t. Braydon quickly came up with a plan to separate himself from his mother.
When she finally saw her son. Braydon was kneeling over a sign board. He was in praying. She asked him what he was doing since she was shocked. She was able to more fully comprehend her son’s behavior, though, after moving towards the board to take a look.
It said on the board, “Every second counts.” There were images of missing children next to those phrases. Little Braydon had moved away from the side of his mom, after he saw the board, and began to pray with God for the safety of those kids.
The heartbreaking picture and the story that it was accompanied by rapidly went viral online. When a Facebook group for Aubrey Jayce Carroll, a teenager who has been missing since 2016, came across Braydon’s story, they decided to write a tribute to him.
“Although I am not sure who this little boy is, I would like to thank you for offering prayers for those children. My cousin Aubrey Carroll is one of the children over there. I can’t deny that this has moved me. I want to formally thank this kid if I knew where or who he was.”
Over 115,000 people have passed along the picture of Braydon bowed before the board on Facebook since it was posted.
800,000 young people have been reported missing in the US each year, according to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. I’m sure you’ll agree that this is a truly incredible number.
The easiest way to put it is in the words of one Facebook commentator who posted the image: “Whether or not you believe in God actually doesn’t matter.” This young person was helping others and doing what he could in Walmart. If everyone followed his lead, the world would be a better place.
Congratulations, Mom! You’re building a strong foundation.
God bless his heart, I appreciate how important his belief is to his understanding.
