My niece’s little baby, Macy, will have heart surgery at 8:00 a.m. in Houston today.  Macy was born recently with Down Syndrome and in need of major heart surgery.  This surgery has been delayed twice, but today is the day so please lift her up.  It will be several hours, so lift up her Mom and Dad, Kristy and Rodney. She is in Children’s Hospital in Houston.

Pain is real for this little family.  Of course, it represents the pain that exists in families all over the world.  Families who have children who are struggling with physical challenges that are very real and dangerous.  It was just a few short years ago that I married Kristy and Rodney and it is hard to believe their first baby is here and now faces this ordeal today.  Again, it is a reminder of the masses of issues that exist in families daily.

This is all that is on my heart today and serves as a good reminder for all of us to pray for people in need this day.  Hospitals are full of them all over the world. Beyond the physical needs, there are so many other needs.  The needs are so many that they are impossible to list.  Again, it reminds us of the great need to pray.

I love you and thank you for praying for Macy and all others who have major needs today.
