Satan has blinded many in America. So much evil. Satan is destroying the family unit here in America at record speed.
According to a study published in the Journal of Youth and Adolescence, most teens run away due to poor family dynamics and bad relationships with parents, as well as issues with substance use, depression, and abuse.
For the second time in five days, Wyoming law enforcement Thursday rescued a teen girl kidnapped in another state.
The Cheyenne Police Department, with help from the Wyoming Highway Patrol and Laramie County Sheriff’s Office, recovered a teen girl reported as a runaway from Westminster, Colorado, the agency reports.
She was unharmed and riding with an 18-year-old who led law enforcement on a high-speed chase up and down Interstate 25 through Cheyenne. More Here From Cowboy State Daily
Why so much evil?
“So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts” Eph 4: 17, 18.
The Scriptures call the mind of the natural man “blinded” 2 Cor. 4:4, “depraved” Romans 1:28, “corrupt” 1 Tim. 6:5, and “unspiritual” Col. 2:18. The natural mind thinks from a humanistic, sin-debased viewpoint. The viewpoint of the flesh directs its thoughts. The sinful mind is under the control of Satan and can never please God because it concentrates on things of the world and not things of the Spirit. The natural mind walks the road of hopelessness and self-destruction.
AI Overview:

- Abuse: Physical, emotional, or sexual abuse can be a major factor in a teen’s decision to run away.
- Family issues: Family conflicts, neglect, or substance abuse can contribute to a teen’s decision to run away.
- School problems: Bullying, stress, or a bad school life can be reasons for running away.
- Mental health: Mental health issues can be a factor in a teen’s decision to run away.
- Peer pressure: Peer pressure can be a factor in a teen’s decision to run away.
- Identity: Teens may run away as part of a process of rebelling against established values and authority.
- Isolation: Teens may feel isolated due to their sexual orientation or gender identity.
- Pregnancy: Becoming pregnant at a young age can be a trigger for some teens.
Teens who run away may feel like they have no other option. However, teens who spend time on the streets put themselves in harm’s way.
To reduce the risk of running away, parents can:
- Create an open and respectful communication with their child
- Ensure their child is regularly attending school and engaged in activities they enjoy
- Engage with their child directly and create a safe space for sharing
