A Prayer for Deputy Sheriff Julie Bridges:

Lord God of mercy, peace, and love, we remember before Your throne in this moment our Sister-in-Blue, Deputy Sheriff Julie Bridges, of the Hardee County, Florida Sheriff’s Office, who sacrificed her life in the Line-of-Duty. We recall with gratitude and respect all that she stood for in this life. Help us to live in the companionship of her spirit. May we be kind to the family, friends, and colleagues she loved; devoted to the county and state in which she served; and loyal to the causes which she championed in law enforcement. Thus, in our life, may she live on, to our great comfort, to the betterment of Your creation, and to the furthering of Your most Holy Will. Almighty God, we ask that you grant us a deeper appreciation of the efforts of all police officers who serve our communities and states daily. For their dedication to our security, order and peace, we give You thanks. May they be encouraged in their work which benefits us all. Help us to grow that spirit of community that will make their job both easy and fulfilling. And now may our fellowship together and Your blessing today bring a renewed sense of joy to each of us. Amen.

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God." [Matthew 5:9 ESV]

"Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends." [John 15:13 ESV]

A police officer should be remembered not by how she died, but how she lived! A great woman has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Hardee County Sheriff's Office. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Sister!
