I wish to know how Ruth is, hoping by this time she is somewhat better. God brings down and lifts up, he wounds and his hands make whole. It is often seen that, under the infirmities of the body, God gives health to the soul; the outward man, says Paul, decays, when the inward man is renewed.
There is no sensible sinner that perishes, who is looking and longing for the promised salvation of Jesus Christ. His grand errand into this world was, and still is, to seek and save the lost; and whosoever cometh to him he will in no wise cast them out. God hath already spoken unto thee, and given thee a hope and an expectation, and that hope and expectation will live and never die. Pray let me know by a line how you are, and whether you wish to see me; if you do, I will come.
God bless thee.
W, H., S. S.
