Compassion For Those Who Serve!

There is no greater gift than the one that those who serve in our law enforcement give. It matters not whether they serve in our local police departments, the FBI, ICE or our military. They all risk their lives to keep us safe.

And yet so often, they are unjustly criticized and ridiculed. This is NOT what Jesus would do. Because Jesus loves each of them. And He loves their families. And so should we.

We need to love them and be grateful for their selfless courage and sacrifice. For if not for them, we would all suffer-alot. Afterall, who is it that we call when there is a disaster like September 11th or when we are in danger of any kind?

But it’s not just the members of law enforcement that we need to love and encourage, it’s their families.

For each one of them pays a price for all that their loved one risks. Everyday, they must worry if their husband or wife will come home safely. As their children grow, they also start to worry. And as they say good-bye to the one they love, they know that they may never see them again. They know, that even if they live, they may come home wounded. Perhaps dreadfully so.

How many of us would do that for a complete, and sometimes unappreciative stranger?

We need to pray for each of these brave souls. We need to encourage and thank them. And we need to love them like Jesus does.

Follow Jesus & Keep Praying; Prayer Changes Things!
