PRAYERS NEEDED

This is a heading we see fairly regularly on the DIBBS. It's an instant call to action for all the prayer warriors on the board. For the last couple of days we have been praying for Gustav to die a quick tropical storm death. It seems wrong to pray him away from DI, when that does send him into the path of others. Where ever he goes we hope it is far away from our little strip of sand in south Alabama.

More importantly I am asking any of you that are not already on my email list to please pray for Baby Davis. He was born on Feb. 28 (Brett's birthday) and only weighed 3 lbs 6.6 ozs. His mom is a regular on the DIBBS, and we have all "adopted" this little family. His mom's name is Lona and his dad is Jared. They have been through so much over the last 5 months, including heart surgery. Davis was doing much better and had even started back drinking breast milk, but over the last few days he has taken a drastic turn for the worst. His mom, usually updates us every day, and we had only a brief update over 24 hours ago. At that point his little heart had stopped twice and they had to bring him back.


Just look at that million dollar smile, we are claiming a victory for this baby. One of the strongest prayer warriors I know (Ms. Roberta) prayed this prayer with us yesterday.
Father, I lift little Davis up to you and ask that you touch him with your healing hand and heal him from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet. Please send your ministering angels to minister health to him constantly. I speak life to him and not death. I speak good health over him. I also ask that you help Lona and Jared through this difficult time. Give them strength and peace in Jesus name. Amen and Amen!


Please join me in praying for this family.

(and it wouldn't hurt to ask that Gustav lose strength and go away). Unfortunately, Davis' family lives in LA and could be affected by this storm.

I also forgot to mention that we had heard that Lona's dad is also in the hospital.
So please lift them all up!
