Adopting the Friends' Religion

These are words of thanksgiving to all the friends who have called me to provide the medicines I have written about (June 2). I will keep your names preserved in my heart. Are you aware of this? You have made me happy. I am not saying that this is new to me. The priests live from the kindness of God and the love of His friends. Nevertheless, their joy increases whenever they see love spreading. I extend my lines to those people who are suffering from Lebanon's politics, which has impoverished us in everything. Who will gift them with their medications? Who will help them live with dignity? How painful it is for politics to be "dancing over corpses"! I am not pessimistic. My confidence is great in that after death there is life. However, I wished for our politicians to deserve the love that people accord to them. The Arabs said "people adopt the religion of their kings". What I hope for Lebanon is that the kings would adopt the religion of friends like you. Thank you, again.
