(All names are changed for the sake of security)

Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ (Ephesians 1:3).

Beloved brothers and ministers of Erihope.com, may peace of Christ grow great in you and may His grace increase in all your spiritual life.

Dear brothers and ministers of Erihope.com , when I write this letter, I thank God thinking of His work, His special love, care, mercy and support for us. I also thank Him since He is fending me through your ministry. I really thank God from my heart for your services. God bless you abundantly for all your endeavors and services.

God can do more than superabundantly beyond all the things we ask or conceive. Therefore, I have thrown my entire burden upon Him: He looks at what is lacking in us and supplies us with our needs. Those who want to live in fear Christ will be persecuted. It is good if we are cast out for the sake of the Name of Christ. It has got great price. It is good that we belong to God.

My brothers, what God has done for me is too much. My husband was persecuted many times because of his belief. Although he is away from me, I have seen God letting me dwell in His hands. By the time Adhanom (my husband) was imprisoned, he had a serious sickness and pain. His situation was leading him to be taken to hospital rather than to prison cells.  I had also my own problems. When I see it now, the problem at that time was much worse than the previous problems. The enemy tried to disturb me in many ways. However, I had the belief that God who provided with my needs, who supplied my life and who comforted my life in the past could also help me at that time. God Almighty has not let me down. There is no wind or rain, but my valley is full of water. Therefore He is helping me in very many ways: He is always with me. Being more than a father, mother, husband, brother or sister, God is making me live a life. I am now relieved from the problem I had previously because God is great in my life. Let Him be blessed for His kindness, mercy and love. It is through the Lord's love that we have not come to destruction, because his mercies have no limit.

Who am I to be loved this much, and what is my house? The Lord is good to those who are waiting for him, to the soul which is looking for him. It is good to go on hoping and quietly waiting for the salvation of the Lord (Lamentations 3: 25 - 26).

My brothers, thank you for your continuous aid and I hope to meet you next time with another letter.
