From Sr. Hobson.

By R. C. Hobson

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: I would for the first time attempt to address you through the REVIEW. I have lately started out in obedience to the present truth. I love the third angel’s message with my whole heart, and am glad I had a heart to receive it; and I do want to live it out in my every-day life that others may see by my good works that I indeed do believe what I profess. Oh! I know I have many things yet to overcome before I can meet my Saviour in peace at his coming, but I know if I put my trust in him he will help me.

I know that by having our hearts lifted in constant prayer to him, and by remembering the hour of secret prayer, that we will gain strength to overcome all our sins. I am young in this cause, but the youth have a work to do if they expect to gain eternal life.

Pray for the youth, for we need your earnest prayers that we may hold out faithful to the end. Yours, striving to overcome. R. C. Hobson. Washington Co., Iowa.
