"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ. Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation."
~ 2 Corinthians 1:3-7
Dear Lenz Family,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know that I have been praying for your family and for Karen's healing. We were shocked to hear the news and have continued to be very concerned. (We especially were thinking of you when we drove through Rochester to and from the Bright Lights conferences in Duluth. We wished you could have joined us.) May the Lord continue to sustain, comfort, and give guidance each step of the way! And may He continue to use your family to testify to His power and goodness. "Some of His children must go into the furnace to testify that the Son of God is there with them." (Elizabeth Prentiss) We love you all and will definitely continue to pray! Sarah for the Mallys
