When Alyssa Brenton asked for God's will in her life, she didn't know what to expect. But when His will leaves her lying in a hospital, paralyzed, it's hard for her to see where He is, and she is faced with a choice of doubt or faith.
Jacob McCarthy's heart only knows one feeling: hate. The death of his family turned his heart cold towards God years ago. But when he meets an injured young woman who still claims that God is good, it awakens feelings he thought he'd silenced long ago.
Through the struggles that ensue in their hearts and those of the people around them, they discover that trusting in the Lord means believing He has a plan - and how to have faith when you don't see.
