“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God."
Matthew 5:9
Matthew 5:9
God raises up courageous men and women to defend truth and liberty. Our police have been placed in roles of great authority to uphold our Constitution and nation’s laws, to defend our democratic institutions, to preserve our personal safety in natural and man-made disasters, and to maintain peace and harmony in our communities at great cost and personal risk. For these noble endeavors, we thank the police and their families. We recognize and honor their noble sacrifice in the service of others.
We also grieve in the loss of friends and fellow officers who laid down their lives for peace and righteousness to prevail. For there is no greater love than one willing to lay down one’s life for a stranger. The love we see demonstrated in the men and women of law enforcement and their families is a love that is sacrificial and unconditional. It does not seek its own ambition or self-interest; it reminds us of the divine love embodied in Our Lord when He sacrificed Himself to reconcile the world and offer eternal life. That is why we have hope.
On Peace Officers Memorial Day, we, the community of this great nation, pledge our love and support to the police, the noble and courageous men and women of law enforcement. It is our prayer every day that God’s protection, wisdom, and presence be with the police and their families always, as they bring God’s righteousness, truth, and peace to our nation and to the world.
God Bless you and God Bless America.
