    Lt 262, 1908

    Cottrell, H. W./President of the Pacific Union Conference

    St. Helena, California

    September 17, 1908

    Previously unpublished.

    To the President of the Pacific Union Conference
    Mountain View, California

    Dear Brother Cottrell:

    Would it not be wisdom for you to attend the counsel meeting in Los Angeles next Sunday? The Lord does not want our brethren to become confused. This seems to be an important time for the work in Southern California. Matters should be so arranged that Elder Reaser need not be detained from his appointed field of labor. Is it not your place to meet with the brethren, and if it is their wish [for you] to step into the gap, please consider this. But you must understand your duty for yourself.23LtMs, Lt 262, 1908, par. 1

    Elder Cottrell, you must walk by faith and not by sight. There is to be exercised by you a living, active faith—a faith that works by love and purifies the soul. Our time to labor is very short, and we need now to watch unto prayer. Seek the Lord, my brother. Believe His promises. Step into your allotted place. Walk by faith, work by faith, and do not expect that you can have sight before the exercise of a trusting belief in the workings of God. Then work with the expectation of accomplishing great things.23LtMs, Lt 262, 1908, par. 2
