My teenage son ran away from home last night. Sadly I couldn't stop him even though he left while I held baby in my arms. I asked him where he was going he said no where.

He's 18 but about a 1 1/2 yrs ago we went through a lot of heartbreak with him using drugs being out with the wrong teens and what led for him to be hospitalized (not from street drugs). I tried hard to keep his old friends from coming to our house looking for him. He had stopped going out completely unless it was with us or his brothers which are not into drugs.

I'm just asking for prayer for God to touch his mind and heart with his love and cleanse his mind & heart. To give him the wisdom and love to make good choices and turn his life back to God as he had done once in the past. To realize his family loves him and wants the best for him.

As well as protect him wherever he is. Hoping he returns home soon. To finish becoming a young man before he's truly ready to be on his own in better circumstances. As,well as remove all desire for drugs and hopefully he will follow through with finishing school, getting a job as he said.

Thank you to anyone that can pray for him.. I will truly appreciate it with all of my heart..
