More Patience


Galatians 5:22 " But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control."


Well they tried Luke off the ventilator today, but he couldn't make it so he is back on the vent. The doctor said we will just have to get a better looking chest x-ray and better vent settings before we try it again. As much as I want him to be off it was hard to watch him working so hard to breathe. He is so peaceful now and napped most of the afternoon after his difficult morning. He is off everything else now so he is wearing a little shirt and all wrapped up in blankets!

Susan and Eric,
Congrats on your new baby boy. He is absolutely precious. We have been praying for him daily and I know God is at work in him and through him. Olivia has been so deligent with her prayers for Luke. We will continue to lift him up in prayer and hope he will come home soon. Let us know if we can do anything.
Love Debby and Eric Johnson

I know it is hard having him there in the hospital, the progress can be so slow, sometimes it is one step forward and two steps back. Just hang in there and keep doing what you're doing, He will be home in no time. The girls were in the hospital for 9 weeks before they got to come home, it's tough, but all worth it if they come home healthy and thriving.

I loved watching the video of precious Luke yesterday, and I know it has to be so difficult watching him and not being able to pick him up and hug him...faith and patience are twins and you certainly have chosen beautiful scriptures to rely on...God is faithful. I continue to pray for Godly wisdom for the medical team. "For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." Romans 8:18 Hugs, Helen
