"You have not because you ask not." James 4:2
In the devotional 'Jesus Calling', the above verse is quoted along with the reminder that God is a God who heals. We receive the healing that flows naturally from His Presence but "more-much more is available to those who ask." So we continue to be so grateful for your prayers for the Yang family as they wait on the Lord for the perfect date of birth for their son.  Louis needed to be back to work today, Monday, so I am taking over with staying with Katrina and the blog updates for this week. It was reassuring for me to arrive and see her stability. Her nurses have all been so good and it is nice to meet them. I also met her primary doctor who was away last week but back today. She was pleased to see that Katrina is still here. Today Katrina is 28 weeks + 3 days! Baby boy's heart rate is monitored for an hour, three times a day. Along with that Katrina's contractions are monitored and they have been minimal.  She continues to be a trooper even though long term bed rest is not easy. There is a sign by the nurses station that expresses the following truth: A healthy baby is worth the wait. Yesterday Kelly came to visit and she always brings healthy snacks for Katrina which is so thoughtful. It was fun to see her and know we will be grandma's together to this little guy. Lori
