We generally have no idea what's going on in the life of the person next to you. The one kneeling in the pew next you at mass, or standing in line in front of you at the super market, or even the person sitting in the cube next to you at work. You have no idea of their "story".
I was reminded of this when I read this beautiful conversion story. It's not a six day, or six month, or even six year conversion story. It's a lifetime conversion story.
Reading it made me remember that the person next to you at mass, on the freeway, or next to me at work may be right in the middle of their own lifetime conversion. So while I was reading the story I asked myself, "If I ran into this person at anytime during her conversion and we had a conversation, would I have helped or would I have delayed her conversion?"
