Encouragement for Isolated Sabbath Keepers
By A. M. Treadwell
SR. A. M. TREADWELL writes from Douglas Co., Kan.: I am very thankful that I ever heard the truths of the third angel's message, and had a heart willing to receive the light that shone around it. It has been almost six years since I commenced keeping the Sabbath of the fourth commandment; and looking back over those six short years, I see many crooked paths that I have made, and I pray God, for Christ's sake, to forgive me of my sins. I will try to walk better the remaining few years we have to stay here. I have not the privilege that many have. We live far from any Sabbath keepers; but I thank the Lord for the REVIEW that makes its weekly visits to our lonely home. It cheers my heart, and helps me to praise the Lord for his goodness and mercies to me. I believe the Lord has precious souls here. We have been here but a short time, and the true Sabbath is quite a novelty to some. I lend the REVIEW to those that seem anxious or willing to read. One family reads them weekly, and I hope soon to see more interested. I further hope some one or more of the ministers will call at this place and preach. I believe it would be a good place for a tent meeting. I will give all the aid that is in my power to take care of those that feel burdened to come this way. I would say to those that are separated from God's people, Take courage! Jesus will soon come to gather his faithful children home. So let us run that we may gain the prize at the end of the race, and be counted worthy to receive the crown of everlasting life at his appearing.
