Reflections for Detective Elizabeth Chase Butler

It is with the utmost sadness that I read of the killing of your two officers. They died valiantly and I take confort that they were not alone when their final act of heroism took place. The ultimate sacrifice was given to keep the public safe from the pure evil that surrounds us on a daily tour of duty. May the two families find peace and comfort within the arms of Lord.

Detective Butler,

Thank you for your service. Now, enjoy the peace of being in the Presence of the Lord.

To Your Family,

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray, “Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with loving, caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name, Amen”

I have lifted you and your family to God every morning for 2 years. Feel those prayers. God is with you, He knows and will ease your pain.
