JUNE 13TH, 1930

^[p. 186] MY DEAR MRS. —, — I cannot write much just now, but I wanted to let you know that you are in our thoughts and hearts in a special way at this time of sorrow. The Lord has sustained you through a long period of peculiar trial, and caused you to know what His grace and succour can be to a heart that needs them. And He will be with you now, and until sympathy and succour in weakness will be needed no more, and then we shall be with Him in His heavenly place. Your dear husband has left all the conditions of feebleness and suffering behind, and is now in the blessed rest of His presence who loved him and gave Himself for him. We have nothing to ask for him, but we can and do ask for ourselves that we may be more devoted to the Lord, and more satisfied with our portion in His love, during the little while that remains to us here.

May the Lord greatly sustain you, and give you such increased knowledge of Himself in this time of sorrow as will be spiritual wealth for your heart evermore!

— joins me in much true sympathy, and love in the Lord Jesus.

Yours affectionately in Him,

June 13th, 1930.
