The Last Gathering Call
By D. A. Eddy
SR. D. A. EDDY writes from Catt. Co., N. Y.: Let no one give up; for we are able, in the strength of Jesus, to go up and possess the goodly land. The road may be rough, but it cannot be long; so let us smooth it with hope and cheer it with song. How thankful I am that it is my privilege to hope and trust in the Lord, and all that will, may share the same. I ask not for less trials, but I want the grace of God to sustain me. Unless we have trials, we shall have nothing to overcome, and cannot have the overcomer's reward. I can say, Praise the Lord for the light of the third angel's message. Awake, O my soul, and let the Spirit of truth sink deeply into thy heart. Mercy calls for the last time, in this third message. Who will heed the last gathering call? You that are lonely ones, sitting alone from week to week with no one by your side, to cheer you on your way, your mourning will ere long be turned into joy. Encourage yourselves in the Lord. Soon the work will close. Be faithful unto the end. We learn that the Saviour is coming soon. Is he coming for you and for me? Will He give us the welcome, Well done? Look up and take courage; for He that now tarries, will not tarry long, but will come to take his ransomed ones home. I want to be there—I must be there.
