Though David’s face had several deep gashes that had been stitched up, and though he suffered from multiple dark bruises and a compound fracture in one of his strong arms, he was sitting before her truly and completely alive. They now shared the greatest Love, and through him they could share a lifetime of loving each other.
Marseille had so many more questions. She wished she could hear every detail about his life since they had been together so briefly in Syracuse. She wondered what life lay before them, what would come next. But instead of asking questions, she simply laid her head on David’s chest. She looked at the engagement ring on her finger and said right out loud, “Bless the Lord, O my soul.”
