Policing

My nephew, MrJ, is in the police academy.  It has been his dream to be a policeman,  and now he's begun the training.   Last week we had "family night", mostly a seminar about what to expect in the way of stresses.  And there is going to be plenty!

There was a lot of talk about stresses on the recruits, but just as much talk on how it affects the family as well.  While some of the info was covered in a joking way, there was a lot of reality hiding underneath it. 

I know that mom and I will do what we can, but it won't be the same as if he had a life partner helping him at home. 

I was impressed with the young folks taking on this as a career, and hope its the right choice for each of them!! 

I pray protection over all those who serve. Amen
