【J.N. Loughborough Letter to Lida Scott】
Sanitarium, California,September 20, 1921.
Lida F. Scott Madison, Tennessee
Dear Sister Scott,Your letter of September 8, enclosing?Numbers 1, 4, and 5 of the Madison leaflets, duly received. Thank you for the leaflets and your remembrance of me. Your letter caused these thoughts.{RY 223.1}[1]

我们常常想到与好久不见的朋友们上次会面的情形。我猜远方的朋友们也会想到我几年前在全国甚至在世界各地积极布道时的情形。他们要是听说我今年1月26日已89岁了,可能会很惊讶,而且在三年半的时间里,我来到这座建在山上的疗养院只有三次。{RY 223.2}[2]

We are apt to think of our friends, whom we have not seen in a long time, as we last saw them. So I suppose my friends a distance from here think of me as when they saw me years ago when I was actively at work all over the country, and even making a trip in my ministerial work all around the world. It may be a surprise to such to learn that I was eighty-nine years of age the 26th of last January, and that I have been off this hill on which this sanitarium stands only three times in three and one-half years.{RY 223.2}[2]

感谢你邀请我参加10月7日至9日的布道志愿者会议。尽管我不能亲临现场,可我向你保证,就像保罗对歌罗西信徒保证说:“我身子虽与你们相离,心却与你们同在,见你们循规蹈矩,信基督的心也坚固,我就欢喜了”(西2:5)。{RY 223.3}[3]

I thank you for your invitation to attend your missionary volunteer convention October 7-9. Although I cannot come in the flesh, I can assure you, as Paul did the Colossians, “Though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ.”{RY 223.3}[3]

感谢主让我的身体不再疼痛,可由于年老身体虚弱却是免不了的。我若不能像以前那样为公众服务,我也感谢上帝,就像怀姐妹告诉一位积极从事查经工作而身体状况不好仍然渴望作工的姐妹那样,“姐妹,你现在不能像以前那样工作——你可以为那些身体健康的人们祷告,让他们积极参与伟大的收割之工。”{RY 223.4}[4]

I thank the Lord I am free from bodily pains, but am?only feeble with age. If I cannot get about in public labors as formerly, I thank God that, as Sister White said to a sister who had been an active Bible worker when in health but was unable thus longer to work, “Sister, you can work now as well as formerly—you can pray for those who have health to be actively engaged in the great harvest field of labor.”{RY 223.4}[4]

我以强烈的兴趣关注着萨瑟兰弟兄的工作。前几年他在巴特尔克里克学院时,我们曾短暂相会,那时我在那里有过几次讲话。我很高兴看到他按照我们已蒙告知的计划开始行动,就是我们的教育中心周围应该有耕种的土地等等。我以虔诚的祈祷关注他参与密歇根州贝林泉学院的创立。{RY 224.1}[5]

I have watched with intense interest the work of Brother Sutherland since being privileged to be with him a short time years ago when he was in the Battle Creek College, when I gave a few talks there. Then I was glad to see him move out in the plan of which we had been told, that our educational centers should have lands for culture, etc., connected with them. I watched with prayerful interest his work in connection with establishing the college at Berrien Springs, Michigan.{RY 224.1}[5]

我特别关心和祈愿他在南方的工作按照在那里应当实施的指示进行。同工们,要确信我的心思和我的信心都与你们认真的工作同在,完成主已告诉我们应该做成的事。当你们聚集时,我祈求主特别祝福会议的筹备工作。[6]

Then especially have my mind and prayers been associated with his labors in the South in harmony with instruction as to what should be done there. Be assured, fellow workers, that my mind and faith are with you in your earnest work to do what the Lord has told us should be done. May the Lord’s blessing be especially in the deliberation of the convention, will be my prayer while you are thus assembled.{RY 224.2}[6]
