On Chicago PD, an officer was shot in the line of duty. Her coworkers still had to work the case because there was a cop killer on the run. Voight told his officer, focus and then feel.
This thang blessed me. Why? Because there’s going to be times we’ll have to fight through things when we’re in the worst place, in pain, grieving, suffering, and going through. Yet, we’ll have to focus first and feel later.
It doesn’t mean God is giving His toughest battle to his strongest soldier. We are all
His strongest soldiers and sometimes we must tussle with life. It doesn’t mean God doesn’t care about our feelings. He’s a compassionate God. Of course, He cares.
What this means is, there’s still something YOU must do and God needs your head in the game because it’s a matter of life and death.
Head up soldier. You’re going to get through this, but right now you need to focus.
