Good Morning, God,
Lord, we consider two headlines this morning. We consider the headlines form Ohio, where a student opened fire on other students on Monday morning. the lives of two students have been snuffed out and the lives of many others altered forever with fear being introduced and innocence shattered. Lord, our children are supposed to be safe, especially at school. Be with those in Ohio in the days ahead.
We also consider today the headlines about two men who have helped keep our own children safe in and around Huntingburg. Lord, we give you thanks for the combined 60-plus years of service of retiring Chief of Police Ron Drew and retiring Detective Sargent Bill Wampler. Through good times and bad, through changes in their jobs, through changes in administrations, and through the changing crimes and criminal elements, Ron and Bill have served us well. Lord, thank you for their gifts on the job and in life. Bless them in their retirement.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
