    Lt 104, 1909

    Stillman, Brother and Sister

    Madison, Wisconsin

    August 17, 1909

    Previously unpublished.

    Brother and Sister Stillman:

    I am impressed to write you the words spoken to you while you were here. Do not encourage a line of thought that will bring discouragement to you, both physically and mentally. Do not encourage suspicion, but encourage confidence. We have no need to give the devil an invitation to spoil our lives through surmisings. Let the Holy Spirit into your hearts. My sister, you may resist the impressions that Satan is trying to create in your mind. Dismiss the enemy, and do not make it hard for your soul. We need to press forward to the light.24LtMs, Lt 104, 1909, par. 1

    Do not watch for faults in your husband and spoil his experience. Speak and act confidence. If you allow men to stir up your mind to think evil of your husband, you will spoil his life; and your own heart will be made heavy. Bring all the brightness possible into your life, and do not make it hard for yourself. Do not be desponding, but walk in the light as Christ is in the life.24LtMs, Lt 104, 1909, par. 2

    We are forming characters, my brother and sister, for the future, immortal life. Dismiss the devil. Do not encourage his temptation. Walk humbly with God. We are not to talk trials, but faith; and let pleasant words be spoken to each other. I present these words of encouragement before you. Seek to help and bless one another. Walk in the sunshine of the Lord’s presence, and you will be cheerful and happy.24LtMs, Lt 104, 1909, par. 3
