Faith, Miracles, and Guardian Angels: Patricia L. Blake's 33-Year LAPD Journey in Touched by the Hand of God

Touched by the Hand of God follows Patricia L. Blake's inspirational story of bravery, faith, and resilience during her 33 years with the LAPD. An homage to first responders worldwide.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 8th Oct 2024 - Author Patricia L. Blake presents a powerful, multi-dimensional testimony in “Touched by the Hand of God: In the City of Angels SEND ME!” that shines a light on life-changing miracles, steadfast faith, and the presence of guardian angels. Drawing from her 33-year career with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), this deeply introspective work talks into how courage, resilience, and determination enabled her to triumph over the adversities faced within one of the most demanding law enforcement settings in the world.

At its core, “Touched by the Hand of God” is a dedication to first responders: the brave men and women in the military, law enforcement, fire services, and medical professions. Blake’s writing is a tribute to those who are called upon in times of crisis, often risking their lives to protect and save others. She draws readers into a journey that not only reveals the emotional complexities of police work but also the deep bonds forged between officers and the communities they serve.

Blake’s book takes readers through an inside view of the LAPD, the third-largest law enforcement agency in the United States, serving the sprawling city of Los Angeles. She starts with a brief history of the LAPD, giving context to the culture and commitment required to join the force. From the application process to rigorous academy training and the probationary period, Blake offers an eye-opening portrayal of what it truly takes to don the uniform.

For many, law enforcement is not just a career—it’s a calling. Blake captures this sentiment as she narrates her personal experiences in the field, sharing stories that reveal the human side of officers who, like her, have dedicated their lives to serving and protecting the public. These stories reflect the sacrifice, emotional toll, and sense of duty that officers carry every day, a reality often overshadowed by Hollywood's glamorized portrayals of police work.

Throughout her book, Blake emphasizes the importance of faith, both in her personal life and her professional journey. Her spiritual connection and belief in guardian angels play a significant role in her strength, allowing her to face danger head-on while feeling guided and protected by a higher power. This faith sustains her through moments of danger, tragedy, and unpredictability, helping her to maintain strength and compassion even in the face of adversity.

The first chapter, “This is the City - Los Angeles”, provides readers a vivid snapshot of life on the streets of Los Angeles, where officers must manage public safety for nearly 4 million people, protect the city's vital harbor and port system, and monitor growing homeless and immigrant populations. Blake’s firsthand accounts reveal the difficulties and challenges that officers encounter every day, often without recognition for their hard work and dedication.

Unlike the action-packed, dramatized depictions found in films and television, “Touched by the Hand of God” gives a raw and unfiltered look at the daily realities of law enforcement. Blake shares her journey not to embellish or entertain, but to provide a truthful, authentic portrayal of what it means to serve as an officer of the law. Her intent is to inform, inspire, and offer gratitude to those who have dedicated their lives to protecting others.

For readers seeking a deeper understanding of police work, faith, and the resilience required to navigate a dangerous profession, Patricia L. Blake’s “Touched by the Hand of God” is an inspiring, insightful, and ultimately uplifting read.
