Reflections for Police Officer Richard K. Martin

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 Your angels, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”

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

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.

My prayers and condolences to the family and colleagues of this brave gentlemen. Warriors are always willing to be on the frontline to protect others from the evils of this world. That is what they do. You had the courage to move forward into the face of danger to stop a bad guy from hurting anyone else. May your service and life be celebrated for what you were willing to do when others would not.
