There is no requirement for you to take on a burden for yourself, for you are Christ’s property. He has you in hand. His everlasting arms are about you. Your life has not been a life of sinfulness in the common acceptance of the term. You have a conscientious fear to do wrong, a principle in your heart to choose the right, and now you want to turn your face away from the briers and thorns to the flowers.{2MCP 809.1}

Du er ikke pålagt at tage en byrde for dig selv, for du er Kristi ejendom. Han har dig i Sin hånd. Hans evige arme er omkring dig. Dit liv har ikke været et syndigt liv i ordets bogstaveligste forstand. Du har en samvittighedsfuld frygt for at begå fejl, et princip i dit hjerte til at vælge det rigtige, og nu mangler du at vende dit ansigt bort fra tidsler og torne til blomster.
