Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)
Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

Posted on 08/11/2003 12:57:30 PM PDT by Brad’s Gramma

If you will, please remember this tiny baby in your prayers. He’s the grandson of a very dear friend of mine. Logan was born on July 25. His due date was in October, making his mommy 26 weeks along, being born 3 months and 3 days early.

Logan was 1 lb 9.4 oz when he was born and is now weighing, as of this morning, 1 lb. 8.3 oz. The little guy is now 12-1/2” long.

He’s a real trooper and is fighting with all his little body can fight with. His Grandma said that he’s starting to recognize his mommy when she comes in the room and hears her voice. She said he tries so hard to open his eyes, and starts kicking his feet.

I asked my friend if there were any specific prayers, other than the obvious…and this is her reply…” A prayer of thanks for the miracle called "Logan.”

On a personal note, I’ve read the emails daily from my friend. I’ve known her for years, I’ve heard her talking about her family for years…but I’ve got to tell you that I’m SO impressed with how her children have all banded together in support. What an incredibly wonderful and loving family.

Father God, we lift up Logan’s little body to you. We pray that you can strengthen him hourly, daily, weekly, until he’s grown enough to go home with his precious family. We ask for guidance for the doctors and nurses who are caring for him. We ask for strength for his parents and extended family. Thank you so much for the gift of life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen

Fellow Freepers…….I bring you Logan!!!

Oh yes...I firmly believe this. He's already used this child in mighty ways...!!

Thanks enormously for the great model of your faithfulness in his life.

And, for your sharing all that prayer support in behalf of so many other needy babies and children.

It has been a true inspiration to be a part of so many praying for him. And to see God answer those prayers so touchingly has been a spiritually enriching growth bonus.

I certainly believe he has a heavy and special anointing on his life. Perhaps one such that his parents and others will have to run hard to keep up with.

God be with all of you, him, the other needy children currently--and with all those and their families who have cared and prayed. May HIS Guidance, Wholeness, Safety and Provision be ours this month, year and forever more.

I've got to keep him around, either for my niece or my goddaughter. Either way,

Miss Victoria, see post 12050 , has first dibs. She saw him first.... well her grandpa did.

Although it would please me mightily if for some reason he chose Colorado Springs intead....

Well, it's never too early to start coming up here to put that bug in his ear. And if you just happen to stop by my house.... it'd be great to meet Mr. Logan in person. ;-)

Well, I haven't either. Like to someday. Maybe in about 15 years, when he is 17+, and my granddaughter Miss Victoria is about to turn 16. :)

I am a mite closer though, since I'm right in the middle of Texas, while the Termite is in the Houston area, AFAIK.
