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!!!

"I hope you save every thread, picture, teddy bear insult and prayer to share with him some day."

It's all on CDs, Cowgirl.
Someday he'll have a ball looking at all of this and knowing all the people who prayed him into existence.

What a wonderful time to be alive. The Texas Termite is doing amazing. The then and now pictures actually took my breath away. Gives me great pause to see them. Puts things in their proper perspective don't they? :-)

"Don't you worry about a thing."

Termite, always be wary of people who say, "Watch this!", or, "Don't worry about a thing!"
That usually indicates you don't want to watch what they're fixing to do, and you should worry a lot!

Thank you, brother, for all that you do and all you have done.

I'm rooting for you, BG - counting upon you, in fact, to hold that little guy in absentia for all of us Others out here who embrace him with prayers.

STARWISE - prayers for your mother, and for all those out there needing God's loving touch.

Are we not truly blessed to know God is listening, and hearing our entreaties 24/7??

He exhorted us to pray one for another, and in agreement...and that we do here at Free Republic.

(Besides, perhaps He-Who-Shall-Remain-Nameless might be tied up at work and not hog take all the limelight..:)

REMEMBER:
TEXAS TERMITE IS OUR GLOW WORM for JESUS !!!

He literally shines with His Love.....

I am SO SO grateful for your prayers. I'm getting very worried .. need God's comfort to face whatever comes. I'm going up for Christmas .. and I stay with her when I go. Everyone else stays with my Sis .. and I need to release this fear of what may happen then. Thank you .. I pray for the Lord's mercy and healing.
