SISTER M. HAYES writes from Eaton Co., Mich.: I am still striving to keep the commandments. I humbly ask the prayers of the people of God that I may be an overcomer and have a part with the remnant people in the new earth. The following lines on the dove in Noah's ark I copied from a book eleven years ago. They spoke the language of my heart then and they do still.
Dear little dove, when I think of you, I sigh for an ark of safety too. A storm is coming when Christ will be, To those who are his, like the ark to thee.
Dear little dove, you did not know Who it was that kept and sheltered you so; But I can read of the Son of God, Who to save my soul has shed his blood.
Dear little dove, you trusted in one Who kept you safe till the storm was done. May I believe and be sheltered too; There is an ark for me as there was for you.
