Josemaría worked the miracle

The miracle I have been asking Saint Josemaría for has happened. I sell oil-paintings and the business was doing very badly. After praying and asking other people for prayers, I received an order for seven oil-paintings for a film set. Unquestionably, Josemaría worked the miracle. Now I have to ask him for my reputation to spread and my business to get established, so that my dreams of happiness with my fiancee can come true.
