Synopsis: A child lay gravely ill, his parents praying for a miracle. But on opposite sides of the hospital bed. Jennie and Michael Stratton’s marriage had fallen apart, leaving them both devastated and alone. Yet now, as Michael sat holding his son’s small hand, he finally knew what it meant to believe.

Jennie struggled to resolve her feelings for the stubborn man she’d married. But their brave little boy needed the strength of their united love. They had to forget their past and focus on the here and now. And then a marriage that had been put asunder might begin to heal, too.
