Selected Messages Book 1
high or low, are the ones who need their special labors, and that Christ
looks on those who are passed by, neglected, wounded, and bruised
by the enemy, and ready to die, and is grieved at the hardness of men,
who refuse to exercise the faith that works by love, which will purify
the soul.
Angels of God will work with, and through, and by those who will
cooperate with the heavenly agencies for the saving of a soul from
death, and the hiding of a multitude of sins, that will lead them to
consider themselves, lest they also be tempted.
It is the sick that need a physician, not those who are whole. When
you expend labor on those who do not need it, and take no notice of the
very ones whom your words and actions could bless, you are forming
a character that is not after the likeness of Christ.—
Letter 70, 1894
