Brother Hull, I have been shown that if you would dedicate yourself to God, hold communion with Him, meditate much, watch your failings, mourn and lament before the Lord in the deepest humility on account of them, relying upon Him for strength, you would be in the most profitable business in which you were ever engaged; for you would be drinking at a living fountain, and could then give others to drink from that same fountain which revived and strengthened you. {1T 434.2}

Bror Hull, jeg har fået vist at hvis du vil vie dig selv til Gud, holde nadver med ham, meditere meget, holde øje med dine svagheder, sørge og begræde over for Herren i den dybeste ydmyghed på grund af dem, vil du gøre det nyttigste arbejde nogensinde; du vil drikke af den levende kilde og kan da give andre at drikke af den samme kilde, som har genoplivet og styrket dig.
