One night in May of 2002, my 19-yr. old son, Mark did not come home. I walked the floors and praying until I felt the peace of God. Until I felt the Holy Spirits urging to get some rest... until God spoke to my heart and promised to stay with my son. Meanwhile on a desolate country road about 50 miles away Mark was unconscious and trapped in the twisted wreckage of his car. When he was discovered several hours later he had suffered massive brain trauma. The doctor told me that the trauma suffered upon impact was only part of the problem... the fact that he lay "alone and unattended" for so long had caused him to slip deeper into the coma, increasing the damage to his brain. I quickly responded that my son was not alone.

Mark's GCS (Glasgow Coma Score) was "3" which is very very low, and definately not good. But, 6 days later he awoke from the coma. When they removed the tube from his throat he asked "What happened to me?"

"You were in a car accident," I responded.

"Was I driving? Was it my fault? How is my car?" he asked. The doctors and nurses were absolutely amazed!

Today, Mark is fully recovered and happily married. He and his wife have a 4 yr. old daughter. (And he called last night to tell me that they are expecting another baby.)

Friends, you can trust God to watch over your children. His eye is ever on them and, in truth, there is no lonely road where He cannot be found.
