What happens when you've prayed for God to protect your child, but the very thing you feared becomes reality? Peyton Garland shares her family's experience with her son's Type 1 diabetes diagnosis and the difficult questions that followed. Reflecting on Psalm 145:4, she considers what it means to pray for our children's spiritual well-being alongside their physical safety.
