Prayer Request for A Tiny Baby (Update in post #12850)

Myself | 8-11-03 | Brad's Gramma

[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!!!

hi baby Logan!
I sure am glad to hear you had a good night.
You need that rest so you can keep growing and getting better.
I'll bet you'll give your mommy and daddy big smiles today after a good nights sleep.
They need tha lil one.
They and your nana and "Uncle TC"
and the doctors and nurses need to see that.
And we need to hear about it.
Because lil one you are loved by so many.
God loves you and so do we.

I have a cousin who was a preemie 40 some years ago. She was no bigger than her bottle! In those days, they didn't have all the resources they have today. I think it was shear will and God's hand that pulled her through it. Babys are such an awesome and amazing blessing in the best of situations. Baby's who are preemies bring us to a whole different level of reality. I am so proud of that segment of our medical community who works so hard to bring these children through. I am so disgusted by that part of our medical community who think they can replace God's will with medical procedures that do not give honor and respect to life.

The little toot looks so cozy in his little bed. I printed the big picture of Logan from his website from my home PC and it's hanging in my cube so everyone can see the Texas Termite. Thanks for the new pix.

Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee

Joyful, joyful, we adore thee, God of glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flowers before thee, Opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness; Drive the dark of doubt away; Giver of immortal gladness, Fill us with the light of day!

All thy works with joy surround thee, Earth and heav'n reflect thy rays, Stars and angels sing around thee, Center of unbroken praise; Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flow-ery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in thee.

Thou art giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, Ocean depth of happy rest! Thou our Father, Christ our brother, All who live in love are thine; Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine.

Mortals join the mighty chorus, Which the morning stars began; Father love is reigning o'er us, Brother love binds man to man. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music leads us sunward In the triumph song of life. Amen
