When Forever Comes: The Forever Duet

by Tawni Suchy

I drink the rest of the ginger ale and pull out the book I picked up at an indie bookstore, needing to escape into a fictional world. Just because I can’t finish writing a great love story doesn’t mean I can’t read them.

West prayed over our food with sincerity and pure gratitude. Then he prayed over me and our time together. I didn’t have to say a word. West took the initiative to put Jesus at the center of our day, and told me he wants Jesus at the center of our relationship, however it may unfold.

It’s in this moment that I feel closest to God, not just because I’m seeing one of His many wonders before my eyes, but because He’s working out His good for me despite my years of disobedience.
