Reflections for Police Officer Jared William Franks

Rest in Peace!

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray Psalm 91 over all LEO’s and this prayer also:

“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 know that God sends those angels to watch over our officers, sometimes to protect them and sometimes to whisk our officers into His presence.

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.

I have lifted your family to God every morning for over seven years. I pray that Jared's life and death will bring glory to God.

Trust those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.

As a former resident of Greensboro, I very much appreciate all officers of the Greensboro Police Department. I am greatly saddened by your tragic passing at such a young age. I pray for your fellow officers, your family, all those that love you, and the citizens of Greensboro.

Oh, beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved,
And [justice] more than life!
