Reflections for Trooper Michael J. Anson

Trooper M. Anson

We, Session 76 of the Zone Five Regional Law Enforcement Training Academy, will always remember and honor your sacrifice. You are a hero, not only your efforts on that tragic day, September 11, 2001, but every day after that. We are fortunate enough to learn from and work with your son Patrolman Anson, who takes such pride in this line of work. Our countries strength lies in the men and women who serve and protect it daily. Thank you for your service. Gone but never forgotten.

Trooper Anson and family,
Your life will never be forgotten and as the anniversary of that fateful September day in 2001 comes around again, I will remember you. I unfortunately never got the chance to meet you, but I wish I had. You have continued to serve, even after death, through your children, wife, and others, such as myself, who were moved by your passing and in that moment realised law enforcement was the career God wanted us to do. Thank you for your service, gone but not forgotten, we will remember you always.

I hope everyone can find comfort in Revelation 21:4 where it says, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” Until we see him again in Paradise, please accept my condolences.

Ephesians 6:10-20

May 22, 2018

Every morning I go to my knees. During that time I pray Psalm 91 over all LEO’s and this prayer also:

“Lord, Be with all law enforcement officers. Keep them safe and free from harm. They are Your soldiers on the front line of the battle against evil. If one should fall this day - wrap their family in your loving arms. Surround them with Your angels, loving family, friends, neighbors and caring people to comfort them. Ease their pain. Help them to mourn well. In Jesus' name and for Your Glory, Amen.”

I know that God sends those angels to watch over our officers, sometimes to protect them and sometimes to whisk our officers into His presence.

Feel His presence as God answers the prayers of many who have fallen to their knees on your behalf. Since the day of my son's death, I have carried every law enforcement officer and their family in my heart.

I have lifted your family to God every morning for over six years. I pray that Michael's life and death will bring glory to His name.

Trust those prayers. God is with you; He knows and will ease your pain.

Our faith helps us to see beyond the grave.

The tragedies of September 11, 2001 never seem to end. God bless this Trooper and those like him.
Our agency sent four cadaver K9 units (not me) to the WTC for several days. As of the present our officers have not suffered any physical effects.

Deepest condolences to Family, Department and Friends. Visit the web site ImagineHeaven.net for a glimpse of the Glorious Reunions awaiting. All law enforcement men and women indeed qualify as "Foxhole Christians" with their duty dangers. As Ray Comfort at LivingWater.com says "Passing is the doormat they wipe their feet on before entering Heaven.” It is our belief they will hear from the Lord Himself. “Do not fear. for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom” (Luke 12:12).
