We could not sleep much after breakfast. We took our traveling blankets and
walked out side the town where there were some old grave hills that had
been opened to get out the wealth that was buried. It left a deep hollow
place in the ground. There was ice in the bottom. We wrapped our blankets
around us and lay down so the wind could not blow on us and slept some.
That was pioneering in Denmark. In this little town it was really the first
great battle for the truth won in Denmark.
Many have said that much of the pioneer work was lost and did not pay. It
is true, some was lost, but what would we have had today without it? I pray
God to rekindle the pioneer spirit and passion for souls and trust in the
Lord. The opportunities are still here. If I were a young man I would say
with the prophet, “Here am I, send me.”
