母亲写给孩子的信-第22章
（1863年10月23日写于新罕布什尔州新港）
我亲爱的孩子亨利，爱德森和威利：我们感到对你们有几分担心。我们知道你们与一个最好的家庭在一起。我们希望你们以一种会受他们敬重的方式去行事。要培养文雅的习惯。要在你们的交谈和你们一切的行动上提升自己。要不断使自己适合在今生与善良圣洁的人作伴，并在上帝的国中与纯洁属天的圣者作伴。总要尽力把自己放在能有用并行善的地方。不要只为了交谈而交谈。如果你们在一般谈话之外没什么话要说，就不要说。孩子们，要让你们的目标正确，完全正确。不要让其他不爱上帝的人做你们的榜样，而要效法基督的生活。{AY79.1}[1]
母亲写给孩子的信-第22章
（Newport, N. H., Oct. 23, 1863）
My Dear Children, Henry, Edson, and Willie,We feel somewhat anxious in regard to you. We know that you are with one of the best of families, and we wish you to act in a manner to be esteemed by them. Cultivate habits of refinement. Be elevated in your conversation and all your acts. Be constantly fitting for the society of the good and holy here, and the pure and heavenly in the kingdom of God. Be ever striving to fill some position where you can be of use and do good. Don’t chat and talk merely for the sake of saying something. Never talk unless you have something to say—something which will add to the general information of those with whom you converse. Children, let your aim be to be right, just right. Let not others who love not God be your patterns, but imitate the life of Christ.{AY 79.1}[1]

要尽量少给你们所住的家庭制造麻烦。安息日要极为谨慎。亨利，你必须尽力使你的弟弟们对符合圣经的精神食粮感兴趣。我认为在安息日多多研究圣经是你的责任。救主说：“你们查考圣经，因你们以为内中有永生”（约5:39）。你们将为正义而战。我并不命令你们去读圣经——我绝对不会。我希望你们能因为爱圣经而阅读圣经，而不是因为你们被强迫去读，因为那样它就会成为一项讨厌的任务。然而你们如果忽视阅读圣经，就会失去对它的爱。爱上帝话语的人是常常阅读它的人。阅读并查考圣经经文，你们会发现真理的链环，且会看到上帝话语更多的优美。你们越研究圣经，越熟悉它们，你们就越能抵挡撒但的试探。当你们想要说错话或做错事时，一些经文就会出来阻止你们，使你们归正。人心不会自然地喜爱圣经；然而人心被恩典更新时，就会享受上帝话语中丰富的真理和应许。{AY79.2}[2]
母亲写给孩子的信-第22章
Cause the family with whom you live as little trouble as you can. Be very guarded on the Sabbath. Henry, you must try to interest your brothers in scriptural and moral reading. I think it your duty to study the Bible more on the Sabbath. Says the Saviour, “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life.” You will have?a conflict to be right. I Don’t command you to read the Bible—I never shall. I want you to read the Bible because you love it, not because you are driven to it, for then it will be an unpleasant task. But if you neglect the reading of the Bible, you will lose your love for it. Those who love the word of God are those who read it most. By reading and searching out scripture references, you will see the chain of truth, and will see new beauties in the word of God. While you make the Scriptures more your study, and become more familiar with them, you will be better fortified against the temptations of Satan. When inclined to speak, or act, wrong, some scripture will come to arrest you, and turn you right. It is not natural for the heart to love the Bible; but when it is renewed by grace, then the mind will feast upon the rich truths and promises contained in the word of God.{AY 79.2}[2]

孩子们：要警醒祈祷，免得你们被仇敌所胜。要为永生而不懈努力。要度基督化的人生，常常考虑上帝的荣耀。我亲爱的孩子们，我们非常爱你们。{AY80.1}[3]

Watch and pray, children, lest you be overcome by the enemy. Make persevering efforts for everlasting life. Live Christian lives, and ever keep the glory of God in view. Much love to you, my dear children.{AY 80.1}[3]
