Matthew Barkley knows the Lord has something planned for his future. After meeting Rachel he begins to wonder if the Lord wants him to settle down. Will being robbed and attacked cause his devotion to waver? Will Rachel see that she belongs with the Barkley family? Can Rachel and Matthew trust the Lord to preserve their love through the trails that lie ahead?
