April 21. Ira Lester Hays was born at 3:20 p.m. He is in transition right now and Joe and Laura will get to see him for the first time in an hour. Laura is doing well and they are holding as well as can be expected. Please pray that Ira can be stabalized while in transition so that they can move to the next phase of tests.

An amazing group of people in Tahoka, Texas are in deep and fervent prayer for Ira as he struggles. God HAS to be listening, I think it must be deafening to Him! Lord, hear our plea.
Thank you God for bringing Ira Lester Hays into this world. Please breathe your breath of life in him this very moment. Thank you for being the ultimate Healer and Great Physician. We ask that you would hold baby Ira, Laura, Joe, and Sophia in the palm of your hands and protect them in the hours and days ahead. It is through Jesus that I pray, Amen.
We love you, Abbie and Jake

Praying for you in Temple, Texas. May the Lord Bless you and Keep you.
You are examples to us all. I hope for every beautiful thing possible for your son. I wish you God's blessings, and also feel that you have already been blessed with the character and courage and goodness to take on this challenge in your life.
Just talked to Maxine a little while ago to see what was going on. She told me about the "blog", and I wanted to let you know about all the prayers for you in Brownfield. Your former babysitter, Joe, (Deaun-remember?) wanted me to tell you she's been praying for all of you also. I just wanted to give you all my love, hope - and confidence in the power of prayer. You know God is continually working for you. Remember I Jn. 5:14-15: "And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know tht he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him."
Joe, Laura, He's heard your requests; Katie, he's heard yours, (bless you in your talks with your Father!) and all others going up continually.
Keep the faith. Love you much.
Prayers are going out for you from Pasadena, CA ; Vancouver, BC; Beaumont, TX; Abilene, TX; and many other places... We love you and are lifting you to Our Father. God be with Ira, his family, and his doctors.

Laura & Joe
I have been thinking and praying for you both all week. God Bless

We are praying for you and your precious, precious family. Rest in His care and know that He is embracing you.
