When my words fail. . .

For we do not want you to be unaware, brethren, of our affliction which came to us in Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life;

indeed, we had the sentence of death within ourselves
so that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead;

who delivered us from so great a peril of death,
and will deliver us,
He on whom we have set our hope.

And He will yet deliver us, you also joining in helping us through your prayers,
so that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf
for the favor bestowed on us through the prayers of many.

II Corinthians 1:8-11

Pastor John, your posts always encourage me. I was glad to hear from another eyewitness that Daddy's doing well and making progress!
