Writing and Traveling . Soon after our return to Rochester, N. Y., my husband engaged in writing the book “Signs of the Times.” He was still feeble, and could sleep but little, but the Lord was his support. When his mind was in a confused, suffering state, we would bow before God, and in our distress cry unto Him. He heard our earnest prayers, and often blessed my husband so that with refreshed spirits he went on with the work. Many times in the day did we thus go before the Lord in earnest prayer. That book was not written in his own strength. {LS 150.3}

Skrive og rejse
Hurtig efter at vi var kommet tilbage til Rochester, N. Y., begyndte min mand at skrive bogen “Signs of the Times." Han var stadig svag, og kunne kun sove lidt, men Herren støttede ham. Da hans sind var i en forvirret og lidende tilstand, bøjede vi os ned for Gud, og vi råbte i vor pinsel til Ham. Han hørte vore alvorlige bønner, og velsignede ofte min mand så meget at han med fornyet ånd gik tilbage til arbejdet. Således gik vi mange om dagen frem for Herren i alvorlig bøn. Den bog blev ikke skrevet i hans egen kraft.
