To say this has been the worst day of my life would be putting it lightly, and I will say that the only two reasons Im making this so public is first and foremost to get my daughter home safe. Second is in the hopes that no other parent ever has to go through this pain. God is good ALL the time, and I have no choice but to stand firm on my faith trusting in Him. I have so much to say but am really just struggling right now. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for the prayers. Please keep praying. This truly is the most important thing right now - be praying Gods hedge of protection around our daughter that He will bring her home safe and unharmed. Words cannot express the gratitude we have for our family, friends, and church family and work family who have prayed and been here for us tonight. I apologize for not answering calls - I just cant speak very well right now. We really do not have a lot of details. She met someone out of state online - supposedly lives in Florida. That person drove all the way here and picked my daughter up today and took her (although Lindsay chose to go because shes young, naïve, etc.). Lindsay left everything - her truck, money, phone, clothes, etc. She purchased a phone and has been communicating with a few choice people via text and phone - this is a HUGE blessing, and we pray Gods hand over that part - that she will be allowed to and to continue communicating. Shes stated shes getting a different phone tomorrow. My mind has been going to dark places, and I pray that is just the enemy and that shes not the in harms way that my mind thinks she is. Lindsay is 18 and is communicating - so, shes not a minor and not considered missing. This means the police cannot do anything from what weve been told. If we know shes in harms way, they may be able to do something. Right now we pray and try to wrap our minds around this think you dont ever want to happen to your family. We praise God for the protection and guidance Hes provided so far. We thank you so much for reaching out and touching us tonight - words just dont express our appreciation. You never want the darkness in your life to be shared with others - you want to protect your family, but I am finding out sometimes it is important to bring light to the reality of life and to just let others in to help. We are trying to do that now. I will update you as I have any new information, and with time and tears I may be able to share. Dave and I just thank you right now.
