I was pointed back to your past life and was shown that God had been very merciful to you in enlightening your eyes to see His truth, in rescuing you from your perilous condition of doubt and uncertainty, and in establishing your faith and settling your mind upon the eternal truths of His word. He established your feet upon the Rock. For a season you felt grateful and humble, but for some time you have been separating yourself from God. When you were little in your own eyes, then you were beloved of God. {2T 297.1}

Jeg blev vist tilbage til dit tidligere liv og fik vist at Gud havde været meget nådig imod dig og oplyst dine øjne så du kunne se hans sandhed, så du kan befries fra din farlige tvivls- og usikkerhedstilstand og så du kan sætte dine fødder på Klippen. For en stund følte du dig taknemmelig og ydmyg, men nogen gange har du adskilt dig selv fra Gud. Da du var lille i dine egne øjne, da var du elsket af Gud.
