¹Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
I came to ask for prayers AGAIN. I know there are those of you who regularly pray for BG and I am asking for even more.
Last night she called me to have me put some money in her account to pay the tow truck to pull her out of a ditch.
She told me the police were there and I didn’t need to come. When I asked where she was she said she didn’t know. She just wanted the money. I finally convinced her I was on my way. I called her again and asked some questions. She had just gotten lost.I asked to speak with one of the policemen. He told me. I said that was strange there would be no reason for her to be on that road coming home from where she was. He told me that most people didn’t end up at that address by accident. I asked if drugs were involved. More than likely.
I called George and told him I was stopping by to pick him up. We went together. Her car is in his name. He gave them permission to search the car. God love her little heart. Once she makes up a lie she will stick with it to the very end.
I asked the policeman to scare some sense into her. The hardest thing I have ever done as a parent was to stand on the side of the road last night as my child was handcuffed and taken to jail. The charges are possession of drug paraphanalia,
We (G and I) could have followed them and bonded her out last night but we, together, decided to let her sit there over night and do some thinking. I took her friend home and told her mother what was going on. Friend is 17. Guess who is 18 and an ADULT!!!! Well Precious, adults face the consequences of their actions.
I found out more from my niece and nephew once I got to ex mother in law’s house. I shared it with the police last night. “Mama ain’t playin”
My prayer is that G and I made the right decision in letting her have some time to think and my prayer is also that this is as close to the bottom as she wants to get.
Still praying Kim.
I can imagine how that was. I think you did the right thing. The worst thing you can do is give the impression that someone will rescue them from whatever.
All actions have consequences.
I have her at home. She had a rough night. They woke her and questioned her. They had all sorts of social media they were showing her trying to get her to tell them more. When I found that out I wasn’t happy, but then I remembered she is 18. They didn’t need my permission.
She is still a little defiant but I think something is getting through to her.
She is eighteen. She is being treated as an adult who has done a crime. They are trying to learn who is participating as a taker and as a provider so they can stop the damage to the children and adults. It is hard but you want her to make wiser choices and they are giving her reason to do that.
A friend’s mother let her defiant sister spend a night in jail on a drug charge many years ago. The boastful kid talked a lot about her wild experiences over the years but that night in jail was never something she discussed. It made her think–in a good way. It also demonstrated her mom would draw a line and stick to it.
My Sister in Christ, Kim, has suffered an awful blow during the evening with the ordeal involving her daughter and the arrest. Please help to feel Your divine presence with her every moment as she goes through this heart wrenching time. I know many are lifting them up at this time and asking for Your intervention in BG’s life so that she rises up from this event and goes the right way after this. You know, Abba, within the past week I heard of someone who had a very similar situation happen during her eighteenth year, and I was so surprised to hear it was in her past. I never would have imagined. She quickly reformed after finding out what can happen. It was a blessing to her and her family. Sometimes You wrap Your blessings in the most unusual ways. Your ways are higher than our ways, and we have little understanding of what You are up to most of the time. But we can trust Your word to give us the truth and it says You wish for all people to be saved. So I pray for that for BG, that she would fully surrender to You and dedicate her life to doing good through whatever way You have planned for her. May this stepping out of line with Your plan just give her a greater reach and compassion for those who get out of line with You. Please help her to desire the things You desire for her. Thank You for Kim and G. who have given her an opportunity to fully grasp consequences. Time served, even overnight, can be time well-served if it causes a turn around in a person. Thank You that she has been found out at this point before she spiraled downward into major addictions. You are ever so good when You put up a safety net to catch the lost young.
Lord, I continue to lift up all the young who are going astray from the desires of Your heart. May they all be found in a good manner so that only enough shock happens that it scares them into getting back on the right path. You know each one of the young ones who are of concern to the friends I have on this blog. Please make a quick difference for each one. Only You can do this kind of spiritual interventions that will sway them away from the detrimental forces in our society. The landmines are everywhere they go. They are prey to those who would use them to make money and selfish evil gain. Please do not let these precious young ones fall to that. I cry out to You, Lord. Please protect them from the evil one who seeks to destroy good lives that You made to fulfill Your good purposes.
I pray in the beloved name above all names, Jesus, my Lord and Savior, Amen
Thank you everyone and thank you Janice for the lovely prayer. I got into her phone and read some things. She can’t pick a decent boyfriend. We all told her today that we loved her and that the police really did her a favor. Her dad is of the opinion, let her suffer her lumps, I have the name of an attorney. Someone else told me that even at 18 she can plead for “youthful offender” and it won’t be on her record. Those are decisions that will have to be made but not today and perhaps not this week.
I really do want to see a change in her attitude.

And it actually does help to explain a lot of the behavior, you now have more information (as painful as it is) about what’s been going on with her.
