A. W. Pink (1886-1952)

Toward the end of 1932, A. W. Pink wrote the following in his Annual Letter:

"For another year the eidtor and his wife have been spared a single day's sickness. What mercy this is! Though the editor spends at least twelve hours everyday in his study, engaged in heavy mental work, yet this close confinement, year after year, has not impaired his health to the slightest degree. Though he has now read the Bible through over fifty times, and upwards of one million pages of theological literature, he has no glasses, and reads the finest print as comfortably as he did twenty-five years ago. Though the editor's wife does all her own housework, making of bread and her own clothes, looks after a garden, and has canned and preserved, jellied and pickled between two hundred and fifty and three hundred pints of fruit and vegetables; and though she does all the typing and addressing of envelopes for this magazine, yet, in spite of a frail body, God has graciously sustained and granted all needed strength." Working hard for the kingdom!
