Prayer For the Little Ones – Lydia Eileen

As I go along this blogging journey, I find myself more and more addicted to reading other blogs. People have so much to say, it's truly amazing. I have even amazed myself at how much I have to say.

There are blogs about everything…everyday life, technology, finance, blogging, family, children, etc etc. Out of these thousands and thousands of blogs I find myself coming across the same types of blogs over and over. About 80% of the blogs I see are for children that are in need of prayer.

This has really got me thinking. Why me? Why now? And what am I to do with this?

I have come to a small conclusion.

I am starting a new segment, Prayer for the Little Ones. Each Wednesday (I hope) I will be posting the site of a child who needs prayer or a family that has been through these tough times and are sharing their lives.

If you would like to be included or know of someone who should be please email me at

Praying for Lydia


Lydia Eileen is the Little One that needs prayer closest to my heart. While you may have seen me discuss her here before. I again urge you intercede on her behalf. Her blog can be found at http://www.lydiaeileen.blogspot.com. You can get her prayer button on my sidebar.

Lydia’s story (from her blog)

“On August 20, 2009 God changed our lives by giving us a beautiful little girl. Lydia was born with Zellweger Syndrome, a genetic disorder that has no cure. This is the story of her life, and our dealings with the God who created her and who is daily drawing us closer to Himself. Thank you for your love and support for our family.”

My prayers for Lydia:

  • strength like she never has had before
  • a seizure free night
  • miraculous healing for each cell in her body
  • peace, strength and rest for her parents as they walk this difficult road

Check back next week for a new Little One to pray for.
