Those Are All Very Interesting. Now Could I Read A Letter You Wrote To Other Children?

Dear Children Gilbert and Deborah [Collins?]:LASW 92.1

I have just laid down my child a few moments to write you a word. Are you good children? Do you keep the commandments of God, and love and obey your parents? If you do you have the promise of entering the holy city where all is harmony and joy. You must pray to God much that He would accept you, and keep you from the pestilence and sickness that is abroad in the land.LASW 92.2

God loves the young if their hearts are turned unto Him, and He loves to bless them.LASW 92.3

I am now on my way to visit Henry, and present to him his little brother. I hope you will be good children. Love God. Speak the truth at all times. Be obedient to your parents, and then God will be pleased with you, smile upon and bless you. Be good, be good. In haste and love.LASW 92.4

E. G. White Letter ^{8Letter 2, 1850.}

Writing To Her Grandchildren

Mrs. White had seven grandchildren. There were Ella, Mabel, and Grace; the twins, Henry and Herbert; then Arthur and Francis. Grandma knew that they too would delight in receiving letters from her. So, whether traveling in Australia, America, on shipboard or by train, she wrote many pages that were mailed to the children of her son Willie.LASW 93.1

And the grandchildren read and profited by those letters. Of the three girls and four boys in that group, three served as foreign missionaries, one in Africa and two in China. One is a minister, another has spent his life in the publishing work, and still another as a church school teacher; every one of the seven has shared in some portion of God’s work.LASW 93.2

Yes, Sister White’s children and grandchildren read her letters. Now you may have that same privilege.LASW 93.3
