For me the nights were especially hard, when I'd had a bad day and couldn't snuggle up to my fiancé. But during that time other important things were happening too. We began to draw closer and closer to God. We are at the beginning of our journey, but we're glad about every small change that has come. We read Scripture together. We pray together every evening. Us and God. The three of us. Opening up more and more with each day. Your prayer gave us so much. When it was already hard and ...
