# Mission in the Pacific

<!-- page:814 -->

The letter from Tahita in this paper, is full of interest; it shows that faith, diligence, and perseverance, when sanctioned by Jehovah, can overcome all difficulties;-for there is nothing impossible with God.

The mountains must be thrown down; the valleys exalted; the oceans rolled back to their own place; the islands moved out of their places, and so all Israel shall be saved.
