Each night as I send my officer off to work, I pray something very similar to this. I pray for his safety, of course, but also for wisdom and discernment-that he will be able to make the right hard choices during his shift. I pray for covering of not only his physical safety but also … Continue reading a powerful prayer for your officer

we wish you knew
We’re all quick to throw around judgements and opinions, but a lot of us don’t really know what wearing a pair of duty boots is like.
