We were extremely upset to learn that you were so sick. You know how much we value your health, my most humble and reverent lady. In order not to torment us with heavy worries, try to notify us at the first opportunity that presents itself whether your illness is over and whether you have completely recovered. Despite our painful life in such a desert, we feel extraordinary joy when we receive news about the health and complacency of people who love us as sincerely as you do. So, knowing how much pleasure you will give us if you send this kind of news, do not hesitate or delay, but please immediately fulfill our request. Just as you have now plunged us into constant sorrow by notifying us of your illness, so you will delight us unspeakably when you send news of your recovery. The paragraphs in the text were arranged by us. – Editorial staff of “ABC of Faith” You might be interested in:
