JennForDelano,
The others are right. Please do not feel like you have failed as a parent. This world is full of all kinds of temptations. The devil makes flashy, shiny things for us to get distracted with so we'll go away from God and be convinced He does not exist. Your daughter is still God's child, whom He loves. We will be praying.

I don't know if this is too controversial, but I've been thinking lately. I know we are told to not mix with unbelievers and those who continue to sin...and so on, but I honestly interpret from the Bible that in certain cases this statement is only for those whose faith is not strong enough. Those who do have a truly strong faith are aware of that and know to ask God for guidance, and sometimes He may tell you to not go against His word, but the laws that Earthly people try to instill upon you about the Bible. Ask God for guidance. I believe truly loving your daughter as Christ loves the church will be your best bet...and to continue to pray for her every day. When you feel ready, I think you should go to her school, and treat her with love only. Not with emotion, but love. I would also just continue to live by example. Keep God at the top of your pyramid of importances in your life, and everything else will fall into place. If you are more concerned with your daughter, maybe you need to focus on God right now and get strength from Him and go to Him in prayer asking how you need to handle this very difficult situation. He definitely knows how difficult this is for you.

I don't know where your daughter's life will lead her, or if she will ever decide to not be gay anymore openly (not meaning to cause an argument), but if you continue to live a life of example and pray for her, I am sure that she will see and believe in God and that He loves her, and that Jesus did die for her sins as well as yours. And if she truly falls in love with Jesus, she won't want to sin anymore. We can't change anyone, I have learned that over this past year, and we can definitely pray. Only God can change anyone. And God speaks through us and changes lives, often through us. So allow God to work in you and through you. Let Him be an example through you.

God bless you. I am praying.
