We had another "care conference" today to meet with all the doctors. They told us that if Kyle had one individual organ problem (heart, kidney, liver, lungs) it would not be so life threatening. Since he has developed multi-organ problems, however, they are giving him little to no hope. As one doctor put it "outside of a miracle, he has zero chance of survival." They talked to us some about limiting his care.
I told them I thought Kyle was going to make it. Kyle has not given up. I asked the medical staff to continue to work hard for him, which they are.
"Outside of a miracle" he says. Miracles are what God is in the business of doing. If I am going to pray for God to heal little Kyle's body, then until the answer is clearly no, I'm going to believe that is what's going to happen. If we don't believe it, we need to stop praying for it.

This is who you are praying for...
"I will praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." ~Psalm 139:14
This blog has been created to help those who are praying for Kyle Bradley Staples to keep up to date on his progress. We will try to post everyday on this blog. Check back daily for new photos and information on Kyle's progress. (Timeline from birth at bottom.)
Baby Kyle
This is who you are praying for...
Holding hands...
Prayer Pagers:
Steve and Shiloh are wearing prayer pagers. When you pray, dial (817) 279-4016 for Shiloh or (817)279-4018 for Steve. Once prompted, enter 777. The prayer pager will buzz, and this will let them know that someone is praying for them.
Peace
And we pray with you.

I agree with you too. Everyone around the tomb thought it was too late to pray for Lazarus! So, as Jesus did, we can call Kyle forth!

ReplyDeleteStanding on the promises of God our Savior...
So let us come boldly to the throne of
our gracious God. There we will receive
his mercy, and we will find grace
to help us when we need it.
Hebrews 4:16 NLT
Dear ones,
We love you guys and know our hearts are broken with this news, however as we stand on the promises of God we know that He has a plan and a purpose for everything in His own timing. We are praying and praying some more to God be the Glory!!
When I am dealing with an all-powerful, all-knowing God, I, as mere mortal, must offer my petitions not only with persistence, but also with patience. Someday I'll know why.
from Ruth Bell Graham
Psalm51:10-12 NIV
Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from you presence or take you Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
Praying for a miracle!
ReplyDeletePraying for a miracle and peace for you all.
ReplyDelete"By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has given this complete healing to him, as you can all see." Acts 3:16
Isaiah 40:31
ReplyDeleteBut they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.
Somebody's praying yall thru. May God's will be done and be glorified thru this baby's life.
Coming to you, as a humble human. Understanding that YOU are the Creator and Sacred one of all. Ask that your Loving, Healing arms wrap around Baby Kyle, and also Shiloh, Steve and the Precious Family. Please Holy Father bring the healing that is needed.
ReplyDeleteI ask this in our Christ name, and for his sake. For this Christian family that lives to serve you.
Amen!
with love and caring kindess, LaCata
I remember my affliction and my wandering,
ReplyDeletethe bitterness and the gall.
I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me.
Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope:
Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, " The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." - Lam 3:19-24
I pray the Lord remains your portion and that you are constantly reminded of his great love and compassion so that you are not consumed during this time. I am praying for your sweet family. May God heal your son.
I'm believing with you Margaret & so is Jael. I agree, unless it's clearly no, don't give up!
ReplyDeleteLove you,
Virginia McNelly
God does still perform miracles. I continue to pray for the three of you. Never ever give up. Just remember God does things in His own time and we do not know what that is. I will continue to love, cry and pray for all three of you. Shiloh, I hope they will continue to let you hold Kyle so that he can feel his mother's love and you can have the joy of holding your son.
ReplyDeleteMay the blood of Jesus penetrate baby Kyles body and in His name may the world stand in awe and wonder on how amazing our God is!!! May every organ, blood vessel, eyes, ears, heart pump properly, brain swelling go down and be normal, may the colon, bladder, spine, every part of his being be perfected in the image of Christ. In Jesus mighty name i pray it is finished!!!
ReplyDeleteDearest Shiloh and Steve,
ReplyDeleteAs I was praying about what encouragement I heard in my spirit the Spirit of the Lord saying
"Whose report will you believe" Our natural man looks and listens to the report of the doctor's, and it is so hard to not believe them.
Clearly this is an attack of the enemy against Kyle. In Proverbs is says: "We have the power of life or death in our tongues" The doctor's speak death for Kyle, I speak life to Kyle.
Lord, you have not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love and life and a sound mind. Father, you remind us the children of Godly parents will be blessed for a thousand generations. Lord, bless little Kyle with healing of all these organs in his body. You already have given him a spirit of Victory. What a fighter he is. Lord bless this seed of Shiloh and Steve for they follow you with their all their heart, mind, soul, and strength. Bless this little one who's grandparents on both sides serve you, and whose seed is in Kyle.
Lord, I speak peace that passeth understanding to rule and reign in that little body, and for every one in this Godly family.
In Jesus' precious Name. Amen."
Love, Mary Alice
We pray you have a blessed birthday, Steve—one where you especially feel God’s love and His presence all around you; one that is filled with encouragement and hope; one where everything goes exactly right and Kyle shows tremendous improvement; one full of happy moments with Shiloh, Abigail, Kyle and other members of your family; one where you feel the gratitude of many, many people for the faith and courage and strength and perseverance and integrity you’ve consistently shown throughout this unbelievably tough time in your life; and one where you can rest with perfect peace as you remember the promises of God. We pray that the miracle of God’s complete healing of Kyle has already begun, and that very soon your precious son will be well enough to go home with you, his mommy and big sister, where he can thoroughly enjoy being loved on and cared for, held and rocked, and played with to his heart’s content. To God Be The Glory
ReplyDeletePraying and praying and praying for you all... for miraculous healing for Kyle, for your unwaivering faith, for strength and comfort, but mostly for God's will and that God be glorified through this entire process. Genesis 22 came to my mind last night. THE LORD WILL PROVIDE....
ReplyDeleteHis arm is not too short!!
ReplyDeleteWe are praying with you.
Love, Ron and Aubrea

ReplyDeleteI am praying and believing in the mighty miracle working power of our Lord. I believe Kyle is a miracle, and this little guy will be a testimony to Gods Great and Awesome ways. Those around him that don't believe and understand will soon see what a truly beautiful savior we serve. In the name of Jesus Kyle will change the hearts of many. God Bless you and God Bless your son.

ReplyDeleteWe continue to pray for you and baby Kyle.
ReplyDeleteFor a Miracle:
Psalms 77: 13-14
You ways, O God, are holy. What god is so great as our God? You are the God who performs miralces; you display your power among the people.
For Comfort:
Psalms 119:73, 76
Your hands made me and formed me; give me understand to learn your commands. ... May your unfailing love be my comfort according to your promise to your servant.
Blessings,

The Welch family is praying for you guys!
ReplyDeleteWe all stand here in agreement..where ever we are, near or far, we stand before a Holy God and are with you...our arms, our hearts our minds in one accord agree that Our God can do this. Where the Doctors shake their heads and say...its time to limit...God says, step back and see what I can do with NO LIMITS...
ReplyDeleteKyle and his amazing family are in our daily prayers. We are praying for a miracle. Praying that God, through Kyle's determination and healing, will show those doctors that He is in charge. He is the Great Physician. They can predict all they want, but He is still the One who decides. We pray that His will be done. And that through Kyle's ordeal, many will be brought closer to Him. We give thanks to the One who brought Kyle into your lives and pray that his little body will have insurmountable strength and healing. We love you all!

SOMETIMES OUR ROADS ARE NOT EASY, OR SEEM IMPOSSIBLE, BUT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GOD, HE LOVES YOU AND HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU, JUST KNOW THAT GOD IS RIGHT THERE CARRYING YOUR THROUGH THIS VERY SITUATION, AND HE LOVES YOU. MY FAMILY AND I WILL PRAY FOR YOU. PRAYER IS SO POWERFUL. GOD IS SO POWERFUL. GOD BLESS YOU AND BE WITH YOU.
GO, KYLE, GO!
ReplyDeleteI am constantly amazed by your strength. You have restored my hope in times when yours has been waning. You will never know the depth, breadth or width of our love and admiration for you and Steve. How thankful I am for a son-in-law who takes such good care of my baby. We join our hearts with yours as you pray for a miracle. Love you so much!
ReplyDeleteLove Mom
We're still with you!
ReplyDeleteLove you!

I too, am amazed by your strength. May you get the rest you need. May you continue to find strength and comfort in the Lord.
ReplyDeleteSome words from the song LORD, YOU'RE HOLY
...I look around and I see
all the works Your hands have made;
The awesomeness of You
and how Your love will never fade.
Love,

You have been and will continue to be in our prayers daily. We all believe in miracles!! Bob & Pam Miller
ReplyDeleteYou are doing what Lynn and I did when our Mark was in the hospital. To give up on Mark for us, meant to give up on God's ability to do a miracle--if HE chose to. Be there, Pray, but leave the doing up to Him...His choice. When doctor's were coming to us wanting us to donate our sons' organs (3 X's) we said "No, God gave those organs to MARK." For us to comply with their wishes, was to close a door that God might have wanted open. I would take nothing for the 6 PRECIOUS ,wonderful,although exhausing weeks that God gave us with our son. There was a Plan, we went with the plan....There are No regrets for us in that decision. I pray for you all every day.
ReplyDeletelove,
Donna Lou
Go Kyle Go
ReplyDeleteWe pray to the Father for a healing miracle.
The song says He's not finished with me, yet. I believe He is not finished you yet you are a work in progress.
May God keep you safely in his hands as you sleep this night.
Shiloh and Steve,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted you both to know that I'm praying for Kyle and you all. My heart goes out to everyone of you! He's been added to the prayer list at my church and there are many people at my office praying as well. We are all believing and trusting God for a miracle! God bless you all!
Keep Pressing On
Luke 18:27 "All things are possible" Matt 11:28-30 "I will give you rest" Psam 91:15 "My grace is sufficient" Philippians 4:19 "I will supply al your needs" 11 Timothy 1:7 "I have not given you a spirit of fear" and 1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your cares on ME" We continue to pray for Kyle's healing, strength for the family, and most of all for God's will.

ReplyDeleteMay God hold you in his arms. I pray you feel his strength all around you and realize he is carrying you this very moment.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you!

God is the great comforter and healer. He does mighty things! Praying for little Kyle and all of your family. Ryan and Ashley Purtell
ReplyDeleteA baby boy; he came to earth
ReplyDeleteTo bring such joy to all!
The Lord knew then that pain would come
It was no surprise to Him.
Each day the news went up and down
Each day the prayers they came.
Each day his mother and father were at his side
To show their love and hope
To a world that gives up when the going gets tough
To a mindset that doctors hold the answer.
But God in His majesty just keeps on doing
What only He can do.
He puts a covering of grace and peace over His children's hearts
He gives us supernatural strength and belief
He shows us He is in control even when things don't go as we would like for them to.
He has his purposed plan that we cannot understand.
He shows compassion and love in ways that we cannot comprehend.
He is here and there and everywhere and nothing escapes his notice.
We have no choice if we are his children but to believe and trust in Him
We have no alternative but to put our faith out there and continue to pray for a miracle.
Miracles happen every day...especially in other countries where they are not so independent.
Miracles happen and only God can control the destiny of our lives.
We simply must love and believe.
Believing with you , Glennis
