Gratitude and Health Reform
By M. Bean
Bro. White: I feel thankful to my heavenly Father for the Review, Spiritual Gifts, and other reading matter, all of which I find profitable. I often think what a flood of light emanates from the Office at Battle Creek, and is being circulated in every direction through the land. I often fear I don't live up to all my privilege as faithfully as I should. If I do not, what then? Weighed in the balance and found wanting! I cannot endure the thought. So it stimulates me to try to set out anew, and begin every day. I feel thankful for what I learn of late, with regard to health reform. I have felt ever since I embraced the truth that I for one must use self-denial; have felt there was too much time spent, and pains taken in cooking. I am glad there is a reform commenced, and I hope that we as a people shall prove to all, that we indeed are God's peculiar people by all that we do. Whether we eat or drink, may we do all to the glory of God. I think we have the truth, and great will be our condemnation if we do not live up to the light.
