It will be easy to remember you on that day because my husband will be in court also, dealing with a two year old case of someone defrauding the camp. Your situation is about relationships, not money, and therefore it comes with a whole lot more baggage. <BR/><BR/>Just from reading your blogs the past several months I know you to be a very loving parent and solid, strong Christian who wants only to serve her Master by impacting the lives she crosses paths with on a daily basis. With Amber you went farther than the second mile, and you could only do that because of the love God has placed within your heart for her. It's His love shown through you. Therefore, He has given you the cross of self-sacrifice in continuing to love this young person who is out to destroy her own life and the lives of everyone else in her world. Because God is a strong and never failing God, He will instill those traits in you as you need them. <BR/><BR/>This has and will be a long, slow, hard, heart-renching journey, Heather, and the only way you have gotten this far and not been destroyed is because Jesus lives within you. When you think you can't take it anymore, just rest in Him, lean your head on His shoulder, let Him collect your tears and bottle them up. He knows how you are hurting and why you are hurting...and He knows you are doing it for Him. You are so very, very precious, Heather.<BR/><BR/>I am glad you have a family and a close by community/church that can physically be there to support you during this time. I'm also glad you were vulnerable enough to allow your blogging family to know how to pray for you, how your heart is aching. We are all here for you, Heather. Like Joshua and Caleb held up the arms of Moses when he couldn't do it in his own strength, we are here to help hold up your arms as you claim victory in the battle for Amber's life.<BR/><BR/>We love you, dear Sister. Thank you for letting us into your heart.<BR/><BR/>(I may have the two names wrong who helped Moses...but you get the picture...we are supporting you in any way we can.)Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02367631270580751657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145221030111065607.post-4736169538362565562008-11-01T08:57:00.000-05:002008-11-01T08:57:00.000-05:00Heather,Hug!!!Ditto what Papa said!I'm so sorry fo...Heather,<BR/><BR/>Hug!!!<BR/><BR/>Ditto what Papa said!<BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry for the pain you are going through. You are a beautiful person, mom and Christian. God knows your heart and how much effort and love you have put into Amber and like you said she has been given the gospel and it won't return void. God love Amber more than you can imagine and His heart breaks for her too. Keep giving the situation to Jesus and trust HIM to work out the details!<BR/><BR/>I have great respect for you and your servant's heart!!!!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08276515253263872085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2145221030111065607.post-28078616852139377032008-10-30T22:53:00.000-05:002008-10-30T22:53:00.000-05:00I am with Papa.

I realize now that I need to run to Jesus. I can share it later, but I need to fall before Jesus and let Him take care of it. I love you and I will be praying for you so dearly.
