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!!!

Beloved presence of God,
hear our prayer...
We request in the name
of the Most Holy Christ,
legions of angels to protect
your beloved little ones.

We pray that angels
shield their eyes and ears
from that which offends Thee.

We pray that angels stay the hands of
those who would hurt or defile the innocence of children.

We pray for bands of angels of Love, Strength and Purity
to shield the bodies and hearts of your little ones.

We pray that You will strengthen the love in each Mother's heart, and bless each Mother with the wisdom, strength, and
courage needed to protect her child in these times.

We pray for angels of Peace and Love to enter
the hearts of all the families of the World.

May Peace reign in the home, and so in the World.

We request this in the name of Jesus Christ.

Amen.

Good hope he enjoys it.

Because He Lives

God sent His son, they called Him Jesus
He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.

How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives.
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days because He lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.

And then one day I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives!

Dear Fighting Logan,

I will continue to hold you and your Mommy in my prayers. You are already a special little guy becuause you have lifted the spirits of so many people already. Your birth has been a gift to hundreds of people. You have moved hearts and stirred emotions, and that is more than some people accomplish in 50 years.I know in my heart you are going to make it. I hope when you are older you will never remember any pain, but that you will always be Fighting Logan. You will over come this and have a spirit that will guide you through life's troubles. You are an angel, an inspritation, and a teasured gift. Never ever give up little Logan. You can do it! My love to you, your Mom and your family.

On bent knees, Someone from PA.
