A Husband Healed Through Sabbath Keeping
Sister P. J. Merikle writes from Blue Earth Co., Minn.: When I first heard of present truth, with the Holy Bible and Sabbath History my constant companions, for I could do nothing else for the time but examine this subject, I was enabled to say, Amen, to what I had heard, and that I, no matter who was opposed, must keep the holy Sabbath of the Lord. I kept two days three weeks. Then, as a kind Father corrects his children, our heavenly Father laid the heavy hand of affliction upon my husband. To all appearance, the quick consumption was doing its most rapid work. When a mere shadow, with no prospect but the grave, he resolved before the Lord, whom he had tried to obey over thirty years, that if he would spare him, he would keep his Sabbath, and bring the family so to do. From that hour he changed for the better. His cough left him. In a few days he was able to sit up, and in a short time he was a well man, and has remained so now almost two years. And we thank God that we have been enabled to keep our good resolutions. We want to live up to what light we have, and to all that may hereafter be given. We claim it to be a privilege and honor to be Seventh-day-Adventists.
