Please pray for my 16 year old daughter, who was caught smoking pot and possibly sleeping with a boy. She is narcissistic and defiant, and most likely has borderline personality disorder. Pray for her healing and turning to the right path. Please also pray that we will make the right decisions in disciplining her. God bless you for your prayers!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Father, hear our prayer that this girl would be granted the grace of the revelation of your love for her through Jesus Christ and come to peace and healing through his grace. Give her parents wisdom and love so that they might bring her through this turbulent time. Mother Mary and St. Joseph, pray for them. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
