Bonacca, Bay Islands

By F. E. CARY

OUR little school at Northeast Bight is still in progress. It has been some time since we reported to the good old REVIEW, yet its visits always bring encouragement. We certainly are living in perilous times,—a time in which Satan is having more control of the young people especially than ever before. It is encouraging to hear the youth in school recite scores of Bible verses. O that we all might treasure up more of God's Word in our hearts!
The Testimonies say the burden of the closing message to the world rests on the young people. Satan knows this only too well, so he is entrapping them with utmost zeal. As we look out on the ripening fields and see the dearth of laborers, our hearts pray to the Lord of the harvest to send more laborers into the fields. These laborers must first be prepared. Consecration and education are needed. Our schools should be like schools of the prophets of old. The Lord will work with our schools in accordance with our faith.
We are told to sow our seed beside all waters, not knowing which shall prosper. May we all be faithful in sowing the good seed, leaving the results with the Lord. He has promised that his word shall not return unto him void, but it shall accomplish the thing whereto he sends it. F. E. CARY.
