Answered Prayer!
"I will set him in the
safety for which he yearns."
Psalm 12: 5
David Wilson, Police Chief of Foley, Alabama, retired after 37
years on the job and his letter to the community was remarkable.
He thanked individuals who encouraged him and served along
side him. He thanked family who sacrificed that he might serve,
and he thanked the community.
Then Wilson ended his letter with a
special thanksgiving to Jesus Christ.
“He IS my life,” said Wilson. “I’m so very thankful for the
hedge of protection He has kept around me in the 37
years as a cop with the many close calls I’ve had….
I’m so thankful that He answered my prayer—my daily prayer to
keep officers I’ve worked with my whole career safe from death
in the line of duty. Thank you for keeping all my employees safe
from death with COVID also. Most of all thank you for redeeming
this sinner.”
Thank God for a police officer who prayed for the safety of
his fellow officers every day, and for a God who answered
that prayer every day for upward to four decades.
Let’s end this year with reassurance
that God answers our prayers.
