Please Pray

I know that this blog is for my trip to India and I never intend to try and take away from that but something has been laid on my heart that I cannot shake. I believe in helping others in any way I can and in this case I think this blog is the way to do it.
Stellen is a 5 month old baby boy with a severe heart condition called SVT (super ventricular tachycardia) that is causing his heart (which is about the size of a walnut) to beat at an excess of 200 beats per min. He is going to have to be flown across the country for a major heart surgery that is very very risky for an infant. You can learn more about him, his condition, and his family by clicking on the link on the side (the photo of Stellen). I do not know this family personally but I strongly believe in the power of prayer and that is something that is desperatly needed now.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I pray that you will hold baby Stellen and his family, especially his mama who has been staying in the PICU with him, close to you tonight. We know that you are in total control of whatever happens and may your will be done because we know that it is good, even if we never understand it. I thank you that this family knows you and trusts in your plan. I pray for Stellan's dad as he is home with the other three children who have the flu. Give both parents rest that they need and wisdom in decisions that no parent should ever have to make. May you bring grace and peace to this family. Carry them through whatever storms lay ahead. I beg you Father if it be your will to heal Stellan so that he may live a long life serving and praising you. Give the doctor's wisdom as they are at a loss of what to do. I pray for everyone that takes care of this precious little one may they be full of love, patience, and grace. In the perfect name of Yahweh Rophe, the God who heals I pray. ~Amen
