The man was deeply shaken. A drunk driver had run a red light and hit his 8-year-old son. The little boy now lay in a coma in the intensive care unit of a hospital. The doctors had done the best they could, but with so much internal bleeding and injury, they were doubtful if the child would survive. "Only God can help him now," one of the doctors said.

How could he pray to God for help when he had no faith that He would hear? - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
