Your way has been hedged up, on the right hand and on the left, to hinder your progress to perdition. The Lord has brought your unruly, untamable spirit to submit to Him. By a mixture of judgment and mercy you have been brought to repentance. Like Jonah, you fled from present duty to sea. God hedged up your way by the visitations of His providence. You could not prosper or be happy, because you could not leave yourself behind. You took self and sin with you. You cherished a discontented, restless spirit and would not do the duties in your path. You wanted a change, some larger work. You became roving in disposition. {2T 423.1}

Du begår fejl i din opførsel over for din mand. Du må opelske en større venlighed og ærbødighed mod ham. Du er for nøjeregnende. Du går til yderligheder og skader din egen sjæl og sandheden. Du gør sandheden frastødende og får sjæle til at være bange for den. Lad kærlighed formildne dine ord og give dine handlinger harmoni og så vil du finde en forandring hos dem du omgås. Der vil være fred, enighed og harmoni i stedet for strid, skinsyge og uenighed. Lad kærlighed og mildhed udøves især over din familie og I vil få en stor velsignelse.
