God’s children are all alike indebted to Him. All should place a true estimate on the value of the human soul. We were all poor, helpless, hopeless, and on the brink of ruin when the grace of Christ found us and wrought out our salvation.22LtMs, Ms 172, 1907, par. 1

A scene was presented before me. I saw two souls struggling in the waters. The waves were beating high about them, and they were ready to perish. One of these persons was white, the other black. Then I saw One come to their rescue. With one hand He laid hold of the white man, and with the other hand He grasped the black and together drew them to a place of safety. Both knelt at the feet of their Rescuer, and both glorified His name.22LtMs, Ms 172, 1907, par. 2

All that is good and precious in the white man is his through faith in Jesus Christ. All that is precious in the character of the colored man is there through his acceptance of the sacrifice of Christ.22LtMs, Ms 172, 1907, par. 3
