Praises to God from Whom all blessings flow !

I wouldn't normally post something so personal, but Chas okayed it and God's love and power shows so mightily,so I thought I should. About a month ago, Chas came to me and said her heart was not with God the way it should be. To make it worse, she said she didn't really care. She feared Him, but was not "in love" with Him. A few weeks after this, she said she needed to quit the praise band she sings in. She said she didn't feel right singing songs to God when she was thinking about doing things that were not of Him. She knew what she was suppose to do, but again, not really caring. She quit a week after that. Then last Saturday, it happened. To make a long story shorter, instead of going to a church lock-in, Chasity and Kassy decided to sneak off to a party instead. They got into an orange car about 7:00p.m. and was not suppose to come back until 6:00 a.m. Chasity had told the youth group pastors wife and a girl on the praise band this info...that's how I had details of where she was going, when she would get back. I called the police . There was nothing they could do, because we had no idea where the party was. They would look for the car, but that was it.
Here is how AMAZING our God is. I went to Luke's room, and lost it, fell to the ground sobbing to Him, asking for His protection upon her, hearing these horrid sounds that I realized was coming out of me. Tina (Youth pastors wife) came in and prayed with me. As horrible as it was, it was gone as quickly as it came. I truly had an amazing peace AS SOON as I stood up. I KNEW she was being protected by Him, and not one second of worry entered back into me. God is Amazing!! Kassy's mom called me back about 11:30 p.m. or so. I told her what our girls had done and all the info I had. When I told her that the party would have alcohol, and the girls wanted to "experience " it and were with guys they had met last week , she said she may know who it was. A "new" boy had been hanging out at her house,that week who she knew was trouble, she had his number, because he had went to church with them( she thought it was weird, but was glad ) and had gotten his parents number to make sure it was ok. IT WAS SOOO GOD that she had that number!! She called, got another number and that person knew someone who's older brother had an orange car! Not too many of those !! Sure enough, it was the people we needed !! We got an address, and got there about 12:00 a.m. THANK YOU GOD FOR CUTTING THAT NIGHT SO SHORT!!! We got there with the police( I called them back) to find the girls crying their eyes out , of course!!( Imagine the shock when Kassy's mom is on the phone,asking for them, and there is NO WAY she could know where they were!) ( I AM A FRIEND OF GOD!) I ran to her, kissed her face in a circle over and over, asking if she was ok,she said yes, I held her tight and told her I love her, with her saying it back. Chas had drank a wine cooler and some "red stuff" (GRRRRR) at the first party. They left there and the people at the second party refused to serve them ! GOOOOO GOD GOOOOOOO !!! The third party is where we met them, and it never got started ! OH YEAH, God is AWESOME! The police gave them breathalyzers. Chas was a 0.03. You would not have known she was drinking at all if not for her breath. (GRRRRR) THANK YOU GOD, that I found her sober and not passed out, drunk, tipsy, or anything else. That she can remember all that happened and that nothing was slipped into her drink, I LOVE YOU so much Father! They told me I could take her home or they could take her downtown. I chose DOWNTOWN ! They called 20 minutes after they took her, for me to come get her. I asked if she could stay longer ; I had to pick her up at 9:00a.m. I did, and we went to church.( her idea) She wanted to tell everyone sorry for what she did and what she put them through. Guess it did her good to sit...not like her to want to go to church with her make-up smeared down her face and up all night. God's presence at church was so powerful!! I could do nothing but cry! Truly, the whole time! Some for Chas, out of my love for her and to see her go through this, but mostly for my God, for clearly showing His might. For showing Chas how much He loved her and protected her even when she turned away from Him !! What a Loving , Faithful, Awesome God we serve!!!
I have to praise God too, that although Chas had been kissing a boy ( GRRRR ) that is as far as it went. She said her and Kassy went together so that no boy could "take advantage" of her, that they could protect each other (GRRRR) . To think that they truly believed that they could protect each other! THANK YOU GOD for protecting her innocence. Praises to YOU my LORD, for not allowing this to hurt our relationship. For allowing me to see it for what it is and to know that it is the sin and what she did that I hate, not her. She is my baby, and I love her; She is your child, and we will discipline her and do what you have called us to do so her spirit will remain teachable :) XXXOOOO I LOVE YOU ! THANK YOU!!!
There is much more. If you want to know how I knew what to do, or , what God "said " to Chas to make His love even more apparent to her,let me know, and I will tell you. I a so tired...YAWN. Put her in your prayers. :) Prayer is Powerful !
