seemed to bring to me a glimpse of something better, but I never had the
courage to speak to you until now."
Signe put her arms around her, drew her close, and kissed her cheek.
"Let us do you all the good we can," she said. "We are going now to
attend a meeting where my husband is to speak. Come with us."
Rachel linked her arm into that of the stranger's who willingly
accompanied them. "Is your husband also a preacher?" she asked of
Rachel.
"I have no husband," was the reply. "I did not--I mean, he did not find
me, has not found me yet." Rachel was somewhat confused but she smiled
as ever.
"She means," explained Signe, "that she did not marry while in
earth-life, for the very good reason that she had no chance--"
"None such that I could accept," added Rachel. Then as the newly-found
friend looked at her inquiringly, she continued:
"I have always believed, and I believe now, that I have a mate
somewhere, but he has not yet been revealed. Frequently I asked the Lord
about it in earth-life, and the answer by the spirit always was 'Wait,
patiently wait'; so I am still waiting.
