When I started dating James, I wasn’t sure how this was going to work out. How could I be in love with the Lord, and then also fall in love with James?
I left the convent on the Lord’s orders: “Go home and tell your family all that I have done for you.” I’d given Him complete reign of my life: all obstacles removed, no holds barred. And so He acted freely in it, turning even the smallest details of my life into signs and wonders.
