I received Brother Simpson’s letter today and was very pleased to hear from you. I think if we would communicate more frequently, we would find blessing in it.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 1

Brother Simpson, I understand your temperament. You experienced a blessed conversion at the time of your daughter’s illness and her wonderful recovery. This mercy was no small evidence to you that the Great Physician had a special care for you. It was a miracle wrought for you both, to arouse you to a higher sense of your obligation to serve and glorify His name.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 2

The Great Physician has manifested His love for you; keep His grace ever before you. In simplicity of soul render thanksgiving and honor to Him. Love the Lord and trust wholly in Him; for He has wrought in your behalf. The evidence given you of the love of God for you is a token that is never to be forgotten. You can do a good work by rendering thanksgiving to the Lord.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 3

The Lord would have you consecrate soul, body, and spirit to Him. Temptations will come to you, but you must grow up into Christ, your living Head. Do not hide your light under a bushel, but put it where it may give light to all that are in the house. The third angel’s message contains the truth for this time. When you humble your heart before God, you will see light in His light, and then with clear voice you will proclaim the message, “Here are they that keep the commandments of God, and have the faith of Jesus Christ.” [Revelation 14:12.]23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 4

Let the truth of God abide in your heart by a living, holy faith. Bible truth must be comprehended before it can convict the conscience and convert the life. The remnant people of God must be a converted people. The presentation of this message is to result in the conversion and sanctification of souls. We are to feel the power of the Spirit of God in this movement. This is a wonderful, definite message; it means everything to the receiver; and it is to be proclaimed with a loud voice. We must have true, eternal faith that this message will go forth with increasing importance till the close of time.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 5

The Lord has given me a message for you: You must plan wisely, manifesting in your words the spirit of the great Teacher, the kindness and tenderness of Christ. My brother, do not answer abruptly when addressed. Remember that Christ is your pattern in this. Be meek and lowly in heart, as He was. Let it be seen in your appearance and actions that you are bound up with Christ. Keep the door of your lips at all times. Use kindly words and simple language.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 6

In the giving of this message, self must not swell into large importance. The message must come from lips that are sanctified and holy. Take deep views of Bible truth. Do not suppose that display and what the world calls style are necessary in order to reach the higher classes. The words and deportment must be of a godly sort in order to do this work.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 7

All who are connected with our health institutions should live in such close connection with God that it can be seen that Christ is formed within, the hope of glory. Consistency is a jewel. Our faith must reach out after God and the Holy Spirit. Will you not give an example that is in harmony with the character of the work? You are to win souls to the truth. Be wise in your belief of the truth. Be watchful unto prayer. Wrestle with God in prayer, and then go forth to labor in the wisdom that He will bestow upon all who desire to learn of Him.23LtMs, Lt 190, 1908, par. 8
