My Good Angel
Sophie and Richard
Toward the end of the summer of ’08, I wrestled with the Lord and with my own heart and mind regarding the subject.

When we are reading love stories, we need to focus on what God has done—not on what the people did—because our very best “rightness” is still worth nothing in the Kingdom of God. It doesn’t guarantee us a single thing. Love stories are about how God moved, even when people didn’t have any idea that He was there.
