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!!!

Continued prayers and celebrations for Logan. (It almost feels like I should say "for our Logan." Please thank Nana for sharing the news of this tiny bundle of joy with us here.)

Likewise, continued prayers for Sara Grace and prayers lifted for Shandon Belle's grandson.

Ahhh, such wonderful news, BG!
All that little Texas Termite needs is a pair of Lucchese boots and a Stetson hat! Thank you, God.

Prayers on the way for Sara Grace and Shandon Belle, too!
Thanks, BG!

Shandon, I received this from Logan's Nana...it's for you, but I thought others with babies in need of prayer would not feel uncomfortable coming to this thread....

Nanc.... Please extend our prayers for little Ryan for his safety and well being. Logan knows the power of prayer, as does his little Freepermate Sara Grace. By the power of Almighty God, and in His gentle mercy, this child too will be healed.

If you can, please post it on the list so that Shandon Belle will know that Logan's family cares about Ryan, as we also do Sara Grace. .. and all of the other wee ones who go unnamed but are protected by His caring love.

Oh I cannot believe that Logan is getting so big! How amazing!

Has there been a Sara Grace update? I keep looking...

Many, many prayers going out for Ryan and his family. I can't imagine how frightening this must be.

Prayers for Logan, Sara, Ryan, and all who love them and care for them. How I wish I could wipe away all their pain and fear.

I have learned not to ask for answers to the mysteries of suffering. I pray for grace to accept them in a holy way.
