Sister Goodrich’s Testimony
By Alice K. Goodrich
DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: I feel thankful to our heavenly Father that by his grace and mercy I have been led to embrace the light of present truth. It has been about one year and a half since I commenced keeping the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. I never have had during that time any desire to give up my faith in the third angel's message. I have seen some very dark hours, and had some severe trials; but, thank the Lord, his grace has been sufficient for me thus far, and I expect if ever I enter into the kingdom, it will be through much tribulation. The more I read my Bible, and the nearer I live to God, the brighter and more precious these truths become to me; and I do feel determined by the help of God to be an overcomer, and go through with his people to the kingdom. When I realize the awful times in which we are living, that darkness is covering the earth and gross darkness the people, my heart is very sad, and I feel to pray earnestly that God in his mercy will help us as a people, to arouse out of sleep, put on the whole armor, and so live that we may be able to stand in the great day of his wrath.
