Emergency: Friend Missing, No Leads

Postby Doubleshadow » Thu Dec 20, 2007 10:30 am

Everyone,

A friend from my home church is missing. Her name is Leah, and I only found out yesterday, but she's been missing without a trace since last Friday. I called my Mom Wed. to talk, and she told me she was in Huntington (where I also did my undergrad.), and I assumed she was there for shopping (it has the closest mall). She usually talks at length, but Wed. she was quite and eager to hang up. I just assumed she was somewhere where she couldn't talk. Turns out, when I called my Dad yesterday, she was there staying with Leah's mom and sister so they wouldn't be alone. Now I know why she wanted to hang up, Leah and I are the same age and she didn't want to talk to me in front of Leah's mom.
Leah is gone without a trace, she left her car, keys, purse, everything but her cell phone. She was in the middle of packing to stay the night with a friend and her suitcase was still at the the apartment she and her sister share. There's no leads, no sign of her, nothing. I know her mom has to go back to work soon, but my Mom may stay longer.
Please pray for Leah and her family. The whole town is looking for her and it's in the media, but it's been nearly a week with no changes. I desperately want her to be okay.

Praying for her, hope she is found soon.
Some of my favorite scriptures.

Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.



James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.



Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

Lord, please be with Leah's family as they await news on her whereabouts. Please be with those out looking for her, that they may find her. Above all, keep Leah safe. Keep her safe and let her be found safe...
Let Your will be done in this situation, Lord, and please let her be found soon.
May this be used to Your glory and highest honor.
In Jesus' name,
Amen!



Wow, please keep us updated. I couldn't imagine having a friend of mine (especially from my church) turn up missing like this...

You know, when you get to be a parent, you think about this kind of thing in those paranoid moments... not good. Praying.
