The day after the last funeral for the 5 officers murdered in Dallas, the Dallas Police Department released a tribute video that will absolutely bring you to tears.

In the attack that happened 10 days ago, Sgt. Michael Smith, Sr. Cpl. Lorne Ahrens, officers Patrick Zamarripa and Michael Krol, and DART officer Brent Thompson were gunned down in cold blood by a man fueled by racial hatred. The Dallas Police Department honored them, captioning this video “our heroes will never be forgotten”.

Today, we saw more police officers gunned down in the line of duty. This merciless killing absolutely cannot continue, and both sides must seek an end to senseless violence. Black Lives Matter needs to address and denounce the violent rhetoric they have been allowing to be attached to them, and conservatives need to reach out with love and compassion in an effort to legitimately make a positive difference.

This endless cycle of killing has to stop. Families are being torn apart, children are being left fatherless. It needs to change, and that requires a change of heart. Donald Trump won’t fix things, Hillary Clinton won’t fix things. Only Jesus can.

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” -John 16:33 NIV

We need to pray for our country and pray that God changes the hearts of the people so that we might see each other as equals in His eyes. The violence can end and it will end if we truly repent and turn back to God.
