Kelly, I do not know you or your family however I have come to love you all as my family. I stummbled accross your blog several months ago and was so inspired by your faith that I added you to my favorites list and now I check your blog daily. I was so happy for you when you announced that you were pregnant. I sat at my computer and cried tears of joy for you...a complete stranger....that I have not even spoke to.... but it didn't matter...you are my sister in Christ and I was sooo happy for you. I prayed several times on Friday for Harpers birth. I did not get to check your blog again until today. I was so sad to see that little Harper is having a difficult time however I know that God is great and he knows what he is doing. We don't, but He does. You must pray and then let go, and let God. He knows what we can handle and will never put on us more than we can handle. Your faith and dedication to God during these past few days is so inspirational. I wish the best for you and your family. I will be following your updates as always. I may never meet you here on earth however I am sure to see you in heaven.
Dear God,
Please be with Harper and all those around her. Lift up their spirits, give them peace and comfort. Bless the doctors and nurses that tend to Harper. Give them guidance. Give them the knowledge to find the problem and ability to fix it. Give Harper the strength the endure all things. Wrap your arms around her and hold her tight until Kelly, Scott and others are able to do the same. If it be your will, make Harper another miracle in your many books of miracles. Please let the family and friends continue to look to you for support. You are an amazing God and I put my faith in you. In Jesus name....amen.

Harper's Prayer Blog
This blog has been started as a prayer book for Harper Brown Stamps, born on January 16, 2009. Harper was born weighing 9 lbs and 12 oz, but immediately began having trouble breathing. Join us in praying for the healing of Harper's little body, for her parents Scott and Kelly, and for the doctors treating. Please feel free to leave your prayers and encouragement for her here. If you wish, leave your name, where you live, and a link to your blog.
Kelly and Scott,
Know that we are on our knees for you praying and pleading for the healing of your precious baby girl. I pray that this blog is a place of encouragement and hope for you - a place where you can come and draw strength knowing that our mighty and powerful God knows you, and knows your baby. He, and only He, is the miracle worker who formed Harper in your womb, and who created her for a special purpose. We, here in blog land, love you dearly and look forward to the day we see pictures on your blog of a bubbly little girl playing with Dawson!
On our Knees,

Scott and Kelly,
"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit hemself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will." Romans 8:26-27
When I first heard of Harper's condition on Friday night this verse immediately came to mind. Of course, I prayed for her healing...and at that moment it was so overwhelming that I asked the Spirit to intercede for me, for Harper, and for both of you. When our heart aches so deeply and when we are overcome with such emotion....He goes to the Father with groans that we cannot express. And for that, we are so grateful. I truly believe that each and every person posting prayers for Harper will commit to pray for her EVERYDAY until the day she is at rest in your arms at her home in one of her monogrammed dresses.
In Him,

T-shirt info.
I just want everyone to know, in case you're wondering, I am NOT, in ANY way, receiving a profit from these t-shirts. The company that we are working with is donating $10 to Harper. It does cost them some money to make the shirts, therefore, that is where the other $10 is going. I know that some of you have felt that myself or Melissa are making a profit on these, but I can assure you that that is NOT the case. The only thing I'm receiving in return is the JOY that comes with doing something to help my dear friends ~ Kelly, Scott and sweet Harper. Please, if there are any more questions, just ask! :) Thank you, Jess :)
