Stephany Update

I feel like all I've been writing on my blog lately are unhappy things. I've always tried to keep it upbeat and happy. But, once again, I am posting asking for your prayers for Stephany.

She was doing very well, started rehab, and I thought things were going along good. But I was being fooled because all this time Stephany has still been using drugs. I knew it in my mind and in my heart but when I would confront her she would tell me lies. Last Monday she was supposed to be at Bible study, left the study to be with friends, and didn't come home all night. Things came to a head today and Stephany ran away from home. This time was different because she left with a full backpack and had planned it. I called the police and they will pick her up if they see her on the street but won't look for her. It's almost 11 pm and I have no idea where my daughter is.

My heart hurts but all I can do is pray for her, for her protection. God knows best and He will see both of us through this time.

Oh dear Kay, my heart aches for you. I can only imagine what you have been going through and how this hurts. I hope you have a good support system where you are to help you right now.
I am stopping to pray for you and Stephany right now. I am touched by your faith in the face of testing too. Continue to hold tight to the promises HE has made. Please keep us informed!

Kay, I am praying for Stephany's safe return home! I cannot imagine what you are going through right now. I pray that it won't be long until she is safely back home with you and ready to get the help she needs to conquer her addiction. May God wrap both of you in His protection and grace.

I will pray that God watches over Steph and that you find some comfort in His Grace. This is the hardest thing for a parent to understand. All we can do is wait and pray that God guides her back to your loving arms and shows her to a successful rehabilitation. ★ Linda ★

Oh My Goodness!!! Your heart must be breaking...:0(
I will pray and ask God to send His angels to surround her and to minister to her. I will pray that God would send His angels to Minister and support you and your family at this time.
Be Blessed dear one and remember that she was His child long before she was ever yours, and He wants the best for her....He will not leave her nor abandon her.

I'm so sorry your daughter is feeling so lost, and that your heart is hurting for her. I hope she soon realizes how much she needs to turn her life around, and that you will have peace that God knows where she is and what she needs, even though you may not.
