Thank you for your kind responses and prayers today. Several of you have asked so I will give a brief update.
In spite of Peters words last night that he wouldn't be in contact with me again, he asked me at 6:15 AM this morning if I wanted to go eat breakfast at a local bakery. He has no car to get there so I was invited for my service. I said yes and we went to breakfast.. When we got home for me to get ready for work he disappeared into his room and didn't respond to my knock on the door or text. He was silent with me all day.
He did have lunch with mom . She gave me updates saying he was quiet but answered her questions without complaint. She took him home where he was getting a Lyft to Atlanta to catch the bus. There was no word until 7:15 when I received a picture of a Trader Joes. My favorite store. I told him thanks and asked what city. He said somewhere in SC. I zoomed in and discovered it was MY Trader Joes in Greenville. So he is on a bus headed north. And that is what we know.
For those asking, I am doing well. I am concerned of course. I can think of lots of things that very likely could go wrong. So I work hard not to go there. My prayer all day has been "Thy Will be Done." I evaluated if there was anything I needed to do today to "stop" his plans and there was not. He was not acting in a way that was a threat to himself nor others. There was nothing I could do. So I have just kept praying for him. The thought hit me that GOD was way better at caring for Peter than I was anyway. God has used me. God can use others. And it boils down to do I trust God.
So thank you SO MUCH for your love and concern as well as your prayers however God leads you. I will post updates here as I have them.
