It's tough to pray when you don't think God is listening or caring. I pray anyway and tell Him how I feel.
I pray for my son, his caregivers, his treatments, and for other families. The Lord has answered in amazing ways. Would love to connect with you more so I would remember to pray for you.
I just got a review copy of a new book for Christian parents of kids with disabilities. It's called "Disability and the Gospel: How God Uses Our Brokenness to Display His Grace" by Michael Beates.
