    If you are going to play this on the radio, please warn listeners to pull over first. I was crying so hard I could barely see the road. What a testiment of faith from such a young soul! Logan’s parents must be very proud of their little man!

    Thank you for sharing the most authentic and heartfelt Christmas story I’ve ever had the honor of hearing!

    My boss shared this with me this morning. Just me… no one else in the office. I’m not sure why she chose me but it was a message I needed to hear today.

    I agree with Cheryl. I, too, was driving and almost broke out in tears. Incredibly touching story. Logan has got it figured out. My Christmas wish is that more people will know HIM and become like HIM. Thank you for sharing this story, and thank you Logan for sharing your story with us. You will change lives.

    My alarm went off this morning and this little boy was talking. It was a great way to start my day and really appreciate my family.

    I heard this on the way to work this morning, and like others I started crying. When I got to work I shared it with two of my co-workers. They also started crying. :o) Thank you for playing this. It was so refreshing to hear the strong faith that young Logan has. His parents obviously are doing an excellent job teaching him about God’s love.

    I have already sent it to all my friends…a few have responded already and said this IS what Christmas is all about! Thank you Logan-thank you KTIS! This was the BEST gift I have received!

    All I can say is way to go Logan! That IS what it’s all about! God’s love. Merry Christmas!

    Will you posting this in written form? I would like a reprint to send to my grandchildren living outside of the KTIS broadcast area. THANK YOU

    Thanks for airing this powerful story. “Out of the mouths of babes…” comes such pure faith and simplicity of God’s truth. Logan’s testimony reminded me of how easy it is to access the heart of God in everyday struggles and how comforting it is to know he understands and cares.

    Wow, what a heartwarming and inspiring message. I was feeling so hum-drum about the season with all its busyness and Logan just made me stop and remember what it is really all about! Also Logan, I believe animals are a special gift from God to us, and He teaches us so many things through them. Thank you Logan for sharing your heart with all of us!
    Ps.Glad I heard it when I got to work and not driving, because it made me cry too.

    This is really an amazing story of God at work in everyday life. I have heard this clip a dozen times and I am moved to tears just like you EVERY time I hear it. It just seemed appropriate to share this message at Christmastime. Blessings to all of you!

    I heard this excellant story when I backed out of the driveway this morning. WOW! My heart just jumped. What a message of love! Thank you KTIS.

    I wept and was taken to my knees as my children and I listened to this young man this morning.
    I was on the phone all morning asking people to turn on their radios. This story is being shared all over and I hope it touches the hearts of people who believe, people who are faultering and those who now believe . I don’t have the words to explain what I heard or what I felt. All I know is I BELIEVE! I heard what I needed to be reminded at the most perfect time! Merry CHRISTmas!

    I have never heard anything as strong and sincere as Logan’s phone call.What a witness he is to the “real” meaning of Christmas.My hat goes off to his parents, and being a grandmother, to his grandparents also.Maybe God has a calling for young Logan. May you all have a very blessed Christmas season.

    This kid has found, at 13 years old, what I didn’t find till I was 55. God bless you, Logan.

    This clip brought tears to my eyes so quickly. What a smart and special little boy Logan is. I think we could all use a little of Logan in our day, especially when things get hectic around the holidays :)

    What a Christ-moving message. I was driving into work when Logan came on the radio. His inspiring words made me cry, I just lost my father to cancer on November 26th and I have not had much Christmas spirit. Logan’s message opened my eyes wide to the power of Christs birth and death. He truly does know our sorrow and he will always carry us.

    Everyone who has gone through a loss should have the deep sincere trust in the Lord that this young boy has. Praise the Lord that there are parents out there that really know how to teach their children the importance of talking to God and much more, to listen.

    I listened to this amazing young man this morning on my way into work and it brought such a rush of intense emotion, that this young man has such a deep trust and devotion in the lord. Logans message made me realize how important it is to trust in and beleive that god is the beholder of all great things. Praise god in all his glory. Thanks logan, you are one special person that has made such a big difference in the lives that you have touched.

    If more people in the world were like Logan and everyone who heard this was touched enough by it to take heed and pass it on, maybe…just maybe…we’d be one step closer to Peace on Earth. This was so beautiful, and so very true. Just Let Go and Let God. Bless You Logan.

    What a blessing and a gift! A True inspiration of how God’s love touch’s so many lives. Thank you Logan and KTIS for listening to God and sharing this wonderful gift of love! God’s many blessings to you and KTIS!

    Hey you guys. Thanks so much for this clip. I heard just the ending part of this on the way to school. Luckily, I was not driving. I almost started crying. Logan is a very smart and Spritual young man. His parents must be very proud of them. I hope that he and his parents have a Great Holiday Season.

    I heard Logan’s story while driving home from my daughters freshmen basketball game last night. I was actually taking a break during the JV game to feed my baby calves their evening milk and can relate to Logan’s tragedy with his cow and calf. I have been in this cattle farming business for 34 years now and have never quite looked at the loss of an animal that way before. Logan, thank you for putting things into the proper perspective for me. What a wonderful story you have told to the world, and believe me, I could tell a lot of similar stories about special cows and special calves. But not the way you told it! Thank you Logan and thank Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

    Thank you God, Christ, Jesus, Logan, and all.

    I especially liked Logan reminding me that God can use you even when you are low and think you are just a piece of dirt. To God you’re not a piece of dirt but a piece of gold.

    Praise God. May each of us keep reaching out to one another and see how got is going to use us and our experiences for good.

    The church I go to used this heartfelt piece to drive a point during the holidays. Who would not want Logan to be their own son at that moment. Very good stuff.

    My dear sister Marian Halberg went home to her Lord and Savior on December 21, 2006. It has been a year. This was a particularily hard day. I miss my journey companion. I miss sharing stories of God discoveries with her and hearing hers. Logan’s words were ordained by God for me. Thank you for these words of hope snd encouragement.

    Logan, you are amazing and I thank you for being the very image of Christ. God’s richest blessings are prayed for you.

    You are very special, with a loving
    heart.
    I lost two cats so i understand how
    you feel. God is wrapping His loving
    arms around you.
    Thank you for sharing Logan.
    Will keep you in my prayers.

    I have watch the video over and over again and it always make me cry. Thank you God for your amazing love for us that you sent your Son Jesus to take our place. Logan, thank you for sharing to us the blessing you received from the Lord.

    All positive comments. The opposite could be said of Snopes.com where you’ll read nothing but denunciations against the “Glurge” they see behind it. Honestly I hope it is genuine and I don’t much care if it isn’t. I do want to say that I don’t think much of the Adults who are using this kid to push their brand of fundamentalist evangelism. So call me an atheist if I don’t buy into Pat Robertson. But I would at least like to champion the innocent kid, because it is that sense of his innocence that comes across in the piece, and real or otherwise it touches something that we’ve probably lost somehow somewhere along the way.
