Dear Brother:

I am enclosing with this a letter to Edson White. If he is still in Colorado, please see that he gets it. If he is not there, I would be glad to know where he is. I have not heard from him for some time. 22LtMs, Lt 272, 1907, par. 1

I trust that the meeting at Denver was of a character to put to an end the unruly working of false tongues. I would be pleased if I could spend a little time with you in Boulder. God will give you grace, my brother, to withstand the attacks of Satan. I am praying that his efforts to hinder the work in Boulder have been effectually repulsed. 22LtMs, Lt 272, 1907, par. 2

The time of trouble is right upon us; we are told that this time is to approach as a thief in the night. But if our life is hid with Christ in God, we need have no fear. Be of good courage in the Lord. When you feel your weakness, and put your trust in God, He will be your strength, your frontguard and your rereward. 22LtMs, Lt 272, 1907, par. 3

Continue in prayer, my brother. This is our only means of bringing our troubles to Jesus. Let the Spirit of God teach you at all times what to do and what to say. 22LtMs, Lt 272, 1907, par. 4
