Counsels to Parents, Teachers, and Students
Let this be taught and lived by medical missionary workers. Let
these laborers tell those with whom they come in contact that the
life that men and women now live will one day be examined by a
just God, and that each one must now do his best, offering to God
consecrated service. Those in charge of the school are to teach the
students to use for the highest, holiest purpose the talents God has
given them, that they may accomplish the greatest good in this world.
Students need to learn what it means to have a real aim in life, and to
obtain an exalted understanding of what true education means. They
need to learn what it means to be true gospel medical missionaries—
missionaries who can go forth to labor with the ministers of the word
in needy fields.
Wherever there is a favorable opportunity, let our sanitariums
and our schools plan to be a help and a strength to one another.
The Lord would have His work move forward solidly. Let light
shine forth as God designed that it should from His institutions, and
let God be glorified and honored. This is the purpose and plan of
Heaven in the establishment of these institutions. Let physicians
and nurses, teachers and students, walk humbly with God, trusting
wholly in Him as the only one who can make their work a success.
