Mmmmhm.

I’ll write more about the Catholic New Media Conference later, but I must share this anecdote. On the night before the celebration, a large group of people were making an obnoxiously loud ruckus very late into the night. I called Josh at 1:30 AM to see if he could comfort me somehow, but that didn’t really work out. By 2:00 AM, I was very frustrated.

I prayed a Hail Mary and asked Our Blessed Mother to please quiet them so that I could sleep. Not 3 seconds after I finished praying, there was absolute silence. Unbelievable? No, just miraculous.

It’s times like these that I’m so grateful for her. Through my trials and recent battle with scrupulosity and sin, I feel her with me and wanting to help me even more, wanting to take me in her arms and bring me to Jesus.
