    Lt 203, 1900

    Sharp, Brother

    On Steamer Moana

    September 10, 1900

    Portions of this letter are published in 5Bio 22.

    Dear Brother Sharp:

    I am much troubled in your case. You were presented to me as seeking to gather too many responsibilities which you could not possibly carry. You would leave many things undone that will need to be done. You will not be favorably situated for your spiritual or physical health. The experience of the farm management has not been that which it should be. We will do our best to secure a manager who has ability to be a director. This the sanitarium must have. There has been a management that must not be repeated.15LtMs, Lt 203, 1900, par. 1

    Last night light was given me that God has men fitted for positions of trust and that these men will have managing ability. Yourself and Dr. Caro need just such help and must have it. That will be for the interest of the sanitarium. The light given me is that Dr. Kress and wife should serve the sanitarium as judicious physicians to hold the fort. You do not see beneath the surface, and should you continue to grasp the responsibilities that are connected with the institution, which someone fitted for the work must bear, then your life will be sacrificed.15LtMs, Lt 203, 1900, par. 2

    God calls upon you to fill in your place, but there is enough for all to do, if you will place yourselves in line. The work must be shared with men of God’s appointment. The outlook is not as it should be. A word to the wise is sufficient. (Treat this judiciously. Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.)15LtMs, Lt 203, 1900, par. 3
