My daughter who is a troubled teenager ran away from home earlier today. We were out looking for her and contacted the Police. Now they are looking for her. She has disability and needs her medication. Now, I leave this up to God and allow Him to take over and watch over her.

Thank you.. my wife and I talked... Throughout my life, God allowed me to suffer so many different ways and I knew He was calling me according to His purpose. God is in control and whatever happens, God is working all things for our own good AND HIS GLORY.

Jim,

I pray that God guide, comfort and support you through this very difficult time. I also pray that He protect your daughter until her safe return home. May He open her eyes to the love and nurturing provided by you and your wife and may she come to both recognize and appreciate all you do for her well being.

Your sister in Christ,
edie

Thank you... prayers are working. We got a call from the Police saying that my daughter is spotted somwhere downtown Columbus. At least we know she is still in the area and hopefully very soon she will be found. I told the officials that she is to be admitted into a 72 hour netcare due to her disability and have been without her medications today.

Will keep you posted.

In Christ, Jim

Praise God that He is Sovereign over all things. Both the good and the bad. My sincere desire is that you have find/have found her by now, but even moreso her security in Christ and peace for your family. It is my prayer that your daughter returns home saftey and receives a loving rebuke from You, even understanding the medical condition, rebuke is neccessary, to express the loving rebuke of a father, as He rebukes us as well. May this trial be used for His glory and aid in your sanctification.

In Him

Good Day, Jim

I will pray for you and your family. Praise God she has been found, this is surely the first step in helping your daughter. I pray that the road is smooth and swift as she goes though the medical process.


Peace to u,

Bill
