I've never had a stronger sense of being watched over and cared for by God Himself. Invariably when the road is too rocky, the right person is sent to show me the way. The religious questions hang heavy, but though I keep my distance, God and I have a healthy respect for each other. If anything, my spiritual conviction has multiplied, and I feel His presence in the most unsuspecting ways. His good judgment and His love for me.
