sent us to work in His vineyard. It is our business to do
all we can. "In the morning sow thy seed, and in the
evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not
whether shall prosper, either this or that." Eccl. 11:6.
p. 207, Para. 1, [LS15].
We have too little faith. We limit the Holy One of Israel.
We should be grateful that God condescends to use any of us
as His instruments. For every earnest prayer put up in
faith for anything, answers will be returned. They may not
come just as we have expected; but they will come -- not
perhaps as we have devised, but at the very time when we
most need them. But, oh, how sinful is our unbelief! "If ye
abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what
ye will, and it shall be done unto you." John 15:7. p.
207, Para. 2, [LS15].
Chapter XXXIV
Broader Plans
While in California in the year 1874, I was given an
impressive dream, in which was represented the
instrumentality of the press in the work of giving the
third angel's message to the world. p. 208, Para. 1,
[LS15].
I dreamed that several of the brethren in California were
in council, considering the best plan for labor during the
coming season. Some thought it wise to shun the large
cities, and work in smaller places. My husband was
earnestly urging that broader plans be laid, and more
extended efforts made, which would better compare with the
character of our message. p. 208, Para. 2, [LS15].
Then a young man whom I had frequently seen in my dreams,
came into the council. He listened with deep interest to
the words that were spoken, and then, speaking with
deliberation and authoritative confidence, said: p. 208,
Para. 3, [LS15].
"The cities and villages constitute a part of the Lord's
vineyard. They must hear the messages of warning. The enemy
of truth is making desperate efforts to turn the people
from the truth of God to falsehood. . . . You are to sow
beside all waters. p. 208, Para. 4, [LS15].
