In this journey of life, we often find ourselves struggling to understand God's plan for us. It may take time for His plan to unfold, but eventually, we realize that everything happens for a reason. The story of me and my husband William is a testament to this.
God's plan for us took us through different paths, leading us to the religious life and then to the vocation of marriage. Though the journey was not without challenges and obstacles, we trusted in God's love and grace, and overcame them.
We realized that we were meant for each other and prepared for this new journey together. Our common desire to live-out our baptismal commitment to spread the good news of God's kingdom was now possible in the company of the layman's world.
Through prayer and faith, we accepted God's holy will for our lives and were able to overcome objections and stigma attached to religious priests and nuns leaving the convent.
In the end, we are grateful for God's infinite love for us and for the whole mankind, and we trust in His mysterious plan for us. May our story be a source of inspiration for others to trust in God's plan for their lives.
