When his beloved Opa was in a coma in 2020, the child did the only thing he thought might help. He prayed for a miracle and requested God to help a member of his family. The shot of him with his eyes closed and his hands clasped in prayer was touching.

Owen couldn’t stand thinking about Grandfather Chuck Paulus in anguish. The only youngster put down his toys and sent his thoughts to heaven. He swore to pray for his Opa every day until he recovered and returned home safely.

Owen’s Opa was saved by the power of prayer, just in time for his 40th wedding anniversary with his beloved wife. Due to everything the couple had gone through, the memorial was much more important.

While the Opa still had a long road to recovery, his improvement astounded and amazed the physicians. Everybody was inspired by the amazing experience to have a bit more faith.
Never underestimate the impact of prayer and love. Little Owen’s acts meant a lot to his family and were surely an encouragement to them. Grandmother Nancy thought the narrative would be a source of optimism in the midst of so much “doom and gloom” in the world.
Owen’s optimism was unaffected by what the physicians thought or predicted since he trusted in something more significant. Congratulations to the courageous young prayer warrior for his perseverance and dedication to his lovely cousin.
