You'll see that He was with you all the time." Mary Anne's insight on understanding God's timing: "God uses every aspect of your life to draw Him closer to you. And then you really fully understand the peaks and you know that you're not walking alone." Mary Anne on a time God undeniably showed up: "When I was finished, I just started laughing because I was in this zone of God. And He laughed with me and it was a joyous laugh.
