Encouraging News of Sister E. G. White

A LETTER from Elder W. C. White, dated February 24, brings the following information in reference to the present condition of Sister E. G. White:—

“A week has passed since I wrote to you about mother’s fall and the fracture of the femur. Day by day the report of the physician has been encouraging. He finds her temperature, respiration, and heart action normal. He also states that her degree of suffering is much less than would naturally be expected. All who have a part in ministering to her, give thanks to God for his manifest mercy and consolation.

“Thursday morning, while speaking of the Lord’s mercies, mother said: ‘I see light in his light. I have joy in his joy, and peace in his peace. I see mercy in his mercy, and love in his love.’

“Sunday morning she said to me: ‘The trouble with us is the tendency to leave things at loose ends. We need to get together and fix our minds upon a definite point, and all work together for victory. We must lift the standard higher and still higher, and all unitedly labor for advance.’

“Tuesday she prayed: ‘O Lord, I commit myself to thee. Thou knowest I have no distrust at all. I commit my soul to thee, my body, and my life. All I ask is that thou wouldst let me fill my allotment of time, that thou hast given me, to thy name’s glory. Amen.’”
