She came for a four day spiritual retreat.  Day after day Shiloh was filled with the sound of her lovely voice, singing praises to the Lord.  She blessed us all.  Day three she came looking for me.  She asked question after question for over an hour.  And finally it came spilling out.  A man at church wants to marry her.  While he is also a Christian, and while she desires marriage, is he the right one for her?  It turns out that his life goals are going in one direction and hers are going in another.  Friends suggest there is something wrong with her.  She should be jumping at the chance to be getting married.  But she doesn't want to be getting married just to be getting married.  She wants to KNOW he is the one God has for her.  We examined her question in the light of God's Word.  That is our final authority.  "Will you pray for me?" she asked.  What an honor to join with her in crying out to God to make the way clear.
