Need your prayers

Hey everybody, my friend Reina is a little over 34 weeks along in her pregnancy and has had to go to the hospital several times over the last week for preterm labor issues.  She and her husband are trusting God to take care of this baby and cause him to be born healthy and well.  Please join me and others in their lives in praying for them.  She could especially use peace and emotional stability (those of you who have been pregnant know that the smallest thing can freak you out, not to mention anything that could possibly be serious!) and patience in resting.  (She, like me, does not like to sit still and do nothing.  I know there are others of you out there who understand completely:) Please also pray for God's perfect timing for this birth and that her body would do what God designed it to do.  Also that her labor would be smooth and not prolonged when it is time.  One more thing to pray about is her family.  That God would provide the grace and energy/stamina needed for her husband to fill in the gaps at this time and that her girls would be okay with her having to be more immobile than usual.  Thanks everyone on her behalf and mine!

Lord, I ask that You will be with Reina and the doctors. Give them all wisdom as to how to best handle this situation. Give Reina peace and comfort. Watch over her baby and may the delivery be complication free. Also, provide for the rest of her family and may they be able to support and encourage her through this time. Amen!
