Ashley's Story

She will leave fingerprints all over your heart

Pray for Jeremiah

I just talked with Jeremiah's parents and got an update on his condition. Things do not look good for them tonight. The surgeon told them that she does not expect him to survive through the night. When they opened him up today they found that every organ in his body had been damaged do to the low blood pressure he experienced the day after his liver transplant. All of the tiny blood vessels that supply blood to his organs are no longer working. They were not able to save any of his intestine. If he lives tonight the plan is to go back into surgery first thing in the morning to see if any of the organs have survived. They really need prayer tonight. They are still sounding hopeful to me and I pray that their tender hearts are not broken. They have brought their other 2 children here today to see their baby brother. Their pastor from home( I do not know where they live) is also here with them tonight. Thank God for our pastors. They are called to do such important work. They told me he is comfortable tonight and is sedated. He is only 16 months old and has been fighting to live since he was 3 days old. My heart hurts for them and for the pain they are going through. If anyone is still awake I ask for you to please go to God on his behalf. Thank you for caring about a little boy who you don't even know. It means so very much to us.

Dear Father, I pray specifically right now for little Jeremiah and his family. Oh, Lord, this little baby has fought for survival all of his short life and we are thankful for the time you have given him with his family. We can only imagine the pain his parents and siblings are going through at this hour. I pray for Your perfect will in baby Jeremiah's life and that You will supply all of this family's needs in this time of waiting; for strength, comfort, mercy, grace and that You just wrap Your mighty arms around them and hold them close. May they feel Your closeness. May the doctors and medical staff be ever diligent in caring for Jeremiah.

Thank you for Godly Pastors. What a comfort they are to us especially during the dark times. May you give their pastor words of comfort and wisdom as he ministers to this family. I am so very thankful for my pastor who is true to Your Word and who shows Your love and mercy through his words and deeds.

I also am praying that little Ashley and Trish are sleeping at this hour. Lord, you know their needs and we trust You to meet those needs.

May the morning light bring renewed hope and we give You praise in all things in Jesus' name, I pray~~~Amen

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that you will hold Jeremiah and his family in your embrace, and that they will feel your arms around them at this difficult time in their lives. I pray that the doctors will feel your hands guiding theirs as they work on him. I know that only you can repair the damage in his body and make him well. I pray that this is your will, and if it is not that you will continue to hold his family close and give them the strength to carry on. At this time I also lift Ashley up to you that you will clear her lungs and help her to stop fighting so hard to breathe, and that you will continue to work in repairing her body. I pray that will hold close all of the other children and their families there and may they feel your presence there with them. In Jesus' name. Amen

Praying for God to comfort this family of Little Jeremiah.....to ease his suffering by healing...or by whatever way it is in God's will for this child to not continue to suffer. Oh Lord...as a mom myself....I can not entertain the thought of loosing a child....how absolutely ....overwhelming their situation must be at this moment. I thank you God that they are leaning on you & ask you surround them with your peace. Let your will be done. Amen
