Please Pray for my Son!
I just got a call from Orlando, FL, our 13 year-old son Devante, got admitted to the hospital for observations due to him being unable to swallow for the last couple of weeks. They initially thought that he just had a case of tonsillitis, they then felt that it may be an infection of his sinuses. But after a couple of tests, the doctors felt the need to keep him overnight so that they will be able to run a tube down his throat to take pictures of his cavities to see if he may have a scratch or some sort of other infection.
I have a hopeless feeling because our sons live a thousand miles away and in instances like this, it is hard for me to focus much. Please pray for my son, I need the Lord to move in a mighty way so that my boy will be alright. Please blog friends, ask the Lord to calm my nerves and please keep my boy safe. Tonight when you talk to the Master, please call my boys name in prayer. I am anticipating a great praise report on tomorrow.

Lance, I can feel your concern and anxiousness. I have been there before many times with all three of my boys. Especially with my asthmatic son who was rushed to emergency many times throughout his childhood not breathing. There is nothing like this kind of fright and helplessness for a parent.
I will NOT fail to call Devante's name in prayer. I promise you I will. I don't have to preach to you about how able God is. You have already experienced His delivering power before. So, you know He is able. Please let us know how he is doing.
