Letter 3

Dear Prodigal Child,

You have become proof positive of the power of prayer.  After spending 3 days searching for you in the area, I (finally) decided to put a prayer request out.  Although I had been praying for your safety, I didn't ask others to pray for you.  Within hours of putting out that prayer request, you made your first call home.

You were safe!  That was my biggest concern the entire time.  Prayers continued to be answered, when He provided a safe place for you to go to the following morning.  Not only was there a church nearby, it was the denomination you grew up in! 

Yes, I am sad that you are not home for Christmas.  However, you are SAFE!  That lifts such a worry off of my heart.  There is a long road ahead of you, but you are on the right road.  Just like the Prodigal Son of the Bible, you had to sleep with swine before you realized where true happiness is.
