Living Faith




Little Blaise is in need of our prayers. Her father and mother and brothers need our prayers as well. Blaise was born without a developed lymphatic system. Doctor's said she would not live this long. A miracle would be perfect right now.

Whatever suffering you are enduring at this moment, please offer up a bit of it on behalf of this family. Special needs children bring two things (among many) to a family. 1) They bring a whole dimension of beauty and appreciation of life that families without special needs children have a very hard time grasping. 2) The medical side of the cross these children carry can be a huge drain on emotional energy.

So we pray: "Dear God bless this family right now as Blaise and her father travel to Stanford, California for more tests and/or treatment. Please heal, sustain, give peace, renew, calm, lift up, and hold together this family as they walk the path each of us is called to walk - only they have been given a greater blessing and a heavier cross than most of us.

We entrust little Blaise (our big inspiration) to you and ask you to send your angels to encourage her and her family. We ask all things in Jesus' name. Amen.
