I pray for the Lords intervention in Amanda’s life and that He will also give you comfort in your time of need.

Again, thank you to all who are praying for us...From FRiends to Pastors many are lifting requests to heaven...it is comforting to know, more than can be expressed in words.

Amanda is home with us now...she attended her first NA meeting last night...a small step...but one in the right direction...it was insanely comforting to know she was under our roof last night...I finally got some sleep.

Amanda has an intake meeting for out-patient care next Monday...she will hopefully start continuing treatment shortly thereafter.

The consequences for her actions are starting to surface....besides the impending issues with the law, she will likely be losing her job and will face problems being accepted back at school given this semester she likely failed most, if not all, her classes.

I pray she learns from such...but in the end it is up to her to take hold of her future....and fight for it. She is young, her path in life is just being discovered...so it is there for the taking.

Prayer, it has given my wife and I strength, so much has happened over the last week....not just with Amanda...but on the work front....and in losing a family member...it has been like trying to hold firm as tidal wave moves past...

So again, thank you...please keep us in your thoughts and prayers....updates will come...and hopefully...with much more joy attached....yet I understand there is a long way to go...and the road will not always be easy.

Small smile, funny how that works, isn’t it FRiend? Grateful, hopeful prayers lifting for you all, that God may share His strength with you, and see you all through this challenge.

May God bless.

The Lord is truly good to those who love Him.

Prayers for your daughter and the rest of your family.

While I was never caught up in any substance abuse troubles, I did drop out of school after the 9th grade and spent the next 14 years living for myself instead of being responsible.

The consequences are still visiting me to this day. My anger at God and everyone else in my way destroyed two marriages, buried a son, and to this day I only have a lukewarm relationship with one of three children. My current wife’s confinement to a wheelchair is even indirectly related to the lifestyle I refused to stop living.

It wasn’t until I gave up the fight and accepted the Lord as my Savior that my life began to get better. Unfortunately the destruction I left behind was devastating, and the many bridges I burned may never be rebuilt.

Through it all there was my mother always hoping and praying that I would let go of the anger I had and quit trying to be the master of my own soul. It worked, because I finally quit kicking at the goads and gave the reigns to Christ.

It’s my prayer that your daughter will also give up her fight and allow Christ take control, and realize how much you cherish and love her.

God bless you PR,

OV
