When I say I broke off the relationship, I guess I should have said that I stopped having him over to spend the night. He had been doing that weekly. When I told his parents, they were shocked to say the least. I assured them that I would never do that again. They seemed to take it very well at first, but a couple of weeks later they told me that they wanted to sever the relationship. That was the first time I had ever experienced such rejection, and boy, did it hurt. Obviously,I didn't work with the youth at church any longer. I guess I should be surprised and thankful that nobody wanted to file any charges. This all happened in the late spring. I left at the end of May to go work at the camp which was in another state. Somehow that information never followed me anywhere. After camp was over I moved to another state. This was not to run from anything. I just had a job opporunity open up. The Lord was really looking out for me. |
