Reflections for Police Officer Jonah Oswald

As I get older, it becomes more-and-more difficult to make sense of the murder of our brothers and sisters in blue. Rest assured that I, and the majority of our great Americans will never forget your bravery and dedication to duty. You gave the ultimate sacrifice and, for that, you have a special place in heaven.

Rest In Peace Officer Jonah Oswald for your sacrifice. Sadly, you paid the ultimate sacrifice to keep your fellow officer's safe who was on scene with you.
Your family, friend's and family in blue are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sadly, the suspect who lost his life was my 2nd cousin. I ask that his family is also remembered in prayer.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:12-13).
