Suddenly he looked up.
"You don't think I ought to go and hunt her up, do you, Mom? Read the letter. She speaks as if our marriage might not have been real."
Mary Garland read the letter, and then she stooped with thankful tears in her eyes and kissed her boy almost reverently.
"No, dear son, I think not. I think God has solved this for you, and now He has removed at least some of the consequences. You let Him have His way, and He has given you back your life to live, not the old life, but a new one. I think perhaps your afterward has begun."
GRACE LIVINGSTON HILL (1865–1947) is known as the pioneer of Christian romance. Grace wrote over one hundred faith-inspired books during her lifetime. When her first husband died, leaving her with two daughters to raise, writing became a way to make a living, but she always recognized storytelling as a way to share her faith in God. She has touched countless lives through the years and continues to touch lives today. Her books feature moving stories, delightful characters, and love in its purest form.
