you guys probably know Elena, the girl from the family I work for here, ran away months ago. We've known where she is, and there's been some legal issues and stuff since she's over 18 (but maturity and emotionally like a 12 year old in many ways). Anyway, something bad happened last night and we're all - Doc and the boys and me - going to go and pick her up and bring her home. It's going to be on me to spend time with her - excessively. Doc thinks it's going to be all honkey dorey, he thinks she's going to WANT to be here, once she actually gets here again. But I don't think so. She's been gone for months and has had a sense of independence, and she's going to have some additional issues to deal with because of what happened. This is a lot for me, a lot on me, and to be honest I'm pretty scared. I don't know what's going to happen or how it will go, and Doc is going to expect a LOT of time and stuff from me and... I don't know how to deal with this, with her, with him. I can deal with doc, and I can deal with elena, but when they're together the shit hits the fan and I kinda get stuck between them, since they both want me "on their side" and I understand Elena's point of view on how difficult and wrong Doc can be, but on the other hand I'm Doc's employee and can't really take "her side". I'm just kinda shook up and I really really need you guys to pray for me during this time. Doc gets VERY dramatic, loves drama - bad drama - and I'm dreading tonight when we go to get her. Pray that I'll have wisdom beyond myself every day, and know how to talk to and love Elena, what to say to her and to Doc and to the boys in every situation. I don't feel up to this. Everything is going to change now. I need to be able to see this the right way, as a ministry and the place where God has me and maybe the reason he has me here, and to not be afraid... and I think I need to know how long I should stay here, but maybe that's not for me to know so I need to be content. Pray a lot for tonight, please, for when we go to get her, that it won't be dramatic and she won't be difficult. Everthing will change around here now and I don't feel up to it.
