Counsels on Health - Ellen G. White

The desire of God for every human being is
expressed in the words, “Beloved, I wish above all
things that thou mayest prosper and be in health,
even as thy soul prospereth.”
He it is who “forgiveth all thine iniquities; who
healeth all thy diseases; who redeemeth thy life
from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness
and tender mercies.”—The Ministry of
Healing, 112, 113 (1905).
The Value of Outdoor Life
[Testimonies for the Church 7:76-79 (1902).]
The great medical institutions in our cities, called
sanitariums do but a small part of the good they
might do were they located where the patients
could have the advantages of outdoor life. I have
been instructed that sanitariums are to be
established in many places in the country, and that
the work of these institutions will greatly advance
the cause of health and righteousness.
The things of nature are God’s blessings,
