If the managers of this farm and the teachers in the school will receive the Holy Spirit to work with them, they will have wisdom in their management, and God will bless their labors. The care of the trees, the planting and the sowing, and the gathering of the harvest are to be wonderful lessons for all the students. The invisible links which connect the sowing and the reaping are to be studied, and the goodness of God is to be pointed out and appreciated. It is the Lord that gives the virtue and the power to the soil and to the seed. Were it not for the divine agency, combined with human tact and ability, the seed sown would be useless. There is an unseen power constantly at work in man’s behalf to feed and to clothe him. The parable of the seed as studied in the daily experience of teacher and student is to reveal that God is at work in nature, and it is to make plain the things of the kingdom of heaven. {6T 185.2}

Hvis de, der bestyrer dette landbrug, samt skolens lærere vil modtage Helligånden, så den kan virke med dem, vil de få visdom til at lede og Gud vil velsigne deres arbejde. Omsorgen for træerne, for plantning og udsæd tilligemed indhøstningen skal bringe alle eleverne vidunderlige lærdomme. De usynlige led, der forbinder udsæd og høst, bør studeres og Guds godhed må iagttages og værdsættes. Det er Herren, som giver sæden og mulden frugtbarhed og kraft. Uden det guddommelige virkemiddel, forenet med menneskelig indsats og dygtighed, ville den udsåede sæd være unyttig. Der er en usynlig kraft, som stadig er i virksomhed til menneskenes bedste for at give dem føde og klæder. Lignelsen om sæden, betragtet i lyset af lærerens og elevens daglige erfaring, skal åbenbare, at Gud er i virksomhed i naturen og den skal forklare de ting, som hører himmelens rige til.
