Asking for Prayers for My Grandson's Baptism
The Prayer List ^ | March 5, 2009 | Bigg Red

Posted on 03/05/2009 7:27:44 AM PST by Bigg Red

My dear grandson is receiving the holy sacrament of Baptism this Sunday. I ask for your prayers for his blessing, but I ask you to also pray for his father, my son, to fully receive God's grace. Although I raised him in the faith, my son has been away from the faith since his late teens.

The act of choosing to have his first child baptized, I pray, is my son's first step in coming back to the fold rather than just a social event.

Thank you, my FRiend for your prayers and your story. BTW, the birth of this son of mine also brought me back on track in my twenties.

We had a lovely Baptism and the weather was just perfect.

Something about parenthood and all that entails matures most young adults to look beyond tomorrow.

So true. It made me a better woman.

Thank you for your prayers.

You’re welcome.

I am learning that God is always ahead of me. One day I may even relax a little.

And not only ahead, but ahead with a surprise! Something amazing for all of us!

So I will continue to mention your progeny to him. God’s got moves we ain’t even seen yet.
