As my husband has stood by my side to sustain me in my work and has borne a plain testimony in unison with the work of the Spirit of God, many have felt that it was he personally who was injuring them, when it was the Lord who laid upon him the burden and who was, through His servant, reproving them and seeking to bring them where they would repent of their wrongs and have the favor of God. {3T 261.1}

Idet min mand har stået ved min side for at støtte mig i mit arbejde og har frembåret et tydeligt vidnesbyrd i harmoni med Guds Ånd, har mange følt at det var ham personligt som skadede dem, skønt det var Herren som pålagde ham byrden og som, gennem hans tjener, irettesatte dem og forsøgte at få dem til at angre deres fejl og have Guds gunst.
