7 Other Effective Prayers for the Sick (Besides Asking for Healing)

It was a freak accident. The energetic, talented nineteen-year-old decided to try a back flip and landed wrong. The impact snapped his C2 vertebra, instantly paralyzing him from the neck down. In the aftermath of Kevin's injury, his family and many faithful friends prayed hard and often for his healing -- and they started to see some miracles.
