These words and the statement which follows that the prayers for "disinterested souls"
lodged on heaven's altar will be answered before the censer is thrown down,
are not from the pen of Ellen G. White, but are the expressions of S. N. Haskell
on page 147 of his book, Story of the Seer of Patmos.
Thought for the Day
The Saviour is still carrying forward the same work as when He proffered the water of life to the woman of Samaria. Those who call themselves His followers may despise and shun the outcast ones; but no circumstance of birth or nationality, no condition of life, can turn away His love from the children of men. To every soul, however sinful, Jesus says, If thou hadst asked of Me, I would have given thee living water. Desire of Ages, p. 194
