I am going to share a few of the promises that I hold onto on a daily basis and I really encourage you to search out God's grace, peace and presence yourself. God is being tangibly felt by both Scott and myself along this journey and we are filled with His supernatural peace.
Here are just a few great verses:
Hebrews 4:16
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
Jeremiah 29:11-13
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
Psalm 4:8
In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.
We love to be reminded about all that God has for us so if you have any verses that you look to for strength please post them in the comments below or email or facebook them to us.
Today we had many small things happen. Zechariah is in a very critical state but he is stable. This afternoon a fever broke out and getting that to lower was the focus for most of the afternoon into the evening. Zak also had a blood glucose level of over 600 today so they are giving him insulin to lower that. We thought that they would try to get him off of the ventilator tomorrow but he is still needing nitric oxide which is helping to lower his pulmonary pressures so that his new heart doesn't fail. Zechariah is hooked up to 18 different medicine ports that are continually giving him medicine to help stabilize and support all that he has been through.
The hospital staff continue to assure us that everything is going as could be expected and that we have come through a lot of victories so far. The journey we are on is a very long marathon and not a sprint. Even after we leave the hospital and take Zechariah home to recover we will remain in a fairly critical state.
We so appreciate all of your continual support as we are traveling down this road. We love to hear your comments, emails, and facebook replies. We are going to do our best to continue to post once or twice a day.
Blessings,
Kat Kindberg

Kat,
I am stunned that you took the time to comfort all your friends as we try to stand in strength for you. AmazIng faith you and your family have.
Here are a couple of verses I found this week, that may be for you and Zak as well. Can't wait to see the little guy again!
~ Laura
Isaiah 40:28-31
Psalm 27 (all of it, but especially verses 13-14)
Thank you Kat for the update. I am praying continually for little Zak.
These verses always remind me of God's great love and care for us, His children, in all things...He has given you the gift of faith and trust in His unlimited love and care for Zak and your family...
Jesus says in Matthew 6:25-26
"Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"
Jesus says in Matthew 7:7-11
"Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in Heaven give good things to those who ask him!"
I have known his grandma, Clariene, since she was an earlier teen and have personally seen the miracles God has performed in her life. God has blessed her life so much. She has such a love for children. I will continue to pray for Zak and all of you that God will work His biggest miracles for Zak now.
