Prayers for Canon

by Staff Writer

Canon is a four-year-old boy who was born with a heart defect known as Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He received a heart transplant last month, but is now showing signs of rejection. His lung has collapsed, and this week has had a series of strokes.

He’s very, very frightened.

His family has created a blog for him, and is asking for prayers. Please take a moment to visit, and leave your thoughts and prayers. Please pray for Canon.

Hear my cry, O God;
listen to my prayer.

From the ends of the earth I call to you,
I call as my heart grows faint;
lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

For you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the foe.

I long to dwell in your tent forever
and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.

Psalm 61:1-4
