There are but two persons who protect the sinful human race from destroying itself. One is God's Holy Spirit. The other is the Peace Officer. Without them, we would all perish at each other's hands.
You were called into this profession and our Lord and Savior has blessed you because:
According to Romans 13.1-5...
God ordains the Peace Officer’s profession.
The Peace Officer is sent by God.
The Peace Officer is vested with God's authority to enforce the law.
A Peace Officer's badge is to be honored by us, because it is honored by God.
You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for your fellow man, while serving, defending, and protecting others in your community.
To the family of Trooper Tony M. Lumley and the Georgia State Patrol , your extended family of Law Enforcement Officers grieves with you during this time. I pray that God will wrap his loving arms around each of you and comfort you during this most difficult time.
To all my brothers and sisters, please remember the fallen officers we have lost. Remember the men and women who died trying to make this world a safer and better place for us all to live in. Please pray for this officer's family and friends as they struggle with this tragedy.
May God be with you every day, please remember, we are a part of the largest family in the world and when one hurts we all hurt.
Though our badges and uniforms may be different, our mission is the same. Rest in peace with our other fallen Brothers and Sisters. We will continue the fight in your honor.

My thoughts and prayers are with Trooper Lumley's family, friends and co-workers. There is never an easy time to go through this but the holidays are always so difficult. I know how difficult it is because I too lost someone I love 2 years ago and I miss him just as much this holiday season as I did the first one. As someone mentioned in an earlier reflection, I have my blue candle lighted in my window in memory of my first husband - Calvin, Trooper Lumley and all the others who have been killed in the line of duty. Everynight when I turn it on, I remember how many great officers have been killed and say a silent prayer for their families. I'm so sorry yours is now one of those families. My God wrap his loving arms around you and help you keep going each day. That's the only way I made it! God Bless You.
