Please Pray!

Added on Sunday: Please click over to Kelly’s blog (link below) to see all updates. She posted pics of the baby today in ICU and an update. The baby is still in critical condition, so please keep praying for this young couple. I don’t know Kelly personally, but she has a huge number of blog friends and I’m just one of many who visits her blog, so please keep this family in your prayers all this week.

I believe in the power of prayer and I just want to ask all of you to please keep Kelly from Kelly’s Korner in your prayers this weekend and especially today. She and her hubby just delivered their first baby (baby girl Harper) on Friday evening, after waiting and going through infertility for awhile. Their baby is sick with pneumonia, had to be flown out to Tulsa to another hospital and is having tests and procedures done right now and they are in need of our prayers. God hears and answers and I do not believe that this beautiful young couple has been given this baby only to have her taken away. We know that God is in control and that HE has the bigger picture in mind. And may He get the glory for everything that happens. I’m believing for a miracle and healing!

Please pray!

    I have been praying for baby Harper and was so thrilled when I last checked Kelly’s blog and read the good news update. God is so faithful and he definitely hears out prayers. Praise Him!!

    I was not a visitor to Kelly’s blog until today, when I read 3 other blogs asking for prayers. Kelly and Baby Harper have a lot of great blogging friends praying for them, including me. laurie

    Lisa Shaw is incredible! I’d want her on my side – what a lovely woman.

    Rhoda – glad to hear the baby may be out of the woods, I can’t imagine how nervous the parents must be!!! I pray tomorrow will be better for them.

    I was so sad and shocked to read about Harper and I have just been praying and praying all day….and anxiously awaiting and update. It seems like she is doing better. I started reading Kelly’s blog the day she announced they were expecting and I have loved following her daily all these months. I just know little Harper will be fine and wearing those monogrammed dresses in no time!

    I will pray for the baby, parents, and the doctors who make the decisions about her care. Prayer is the greatest healer.

    Rhoda, I so connected with this family and flashed backed to my 12 days next to hubby in ICU.
    I’ve linked Scott and this beautiful family to my favorites.
    Whatever the outcome, this will be a testimony to the entire world.
    Because of God’s power and blogland we had prayers from ALL over the globe.
    There was power and peace flooding my soul.
    People STILL ask and are praying for Don.

    Thank you for sharing this wonderful testimony.
    I KNOW they can feel our prayers.

    Hi Rhoda. I found your blog through Coco at Ordianry Miracles. I wil pray for this little family. I went through two difficult births myself.

    I enjoy your blog and your decorating ideas. I especially like the way that Pecan Pie is looking! I’ll be adding your button to my blog.

    Hey, Anon, the black & white background is only on the outside edge of my blog. If you are seeing that where the writing is, then it's not loading properly for you. The background where everything is read is white!
