ALICE K. GOODRICH

By Alice K. Goodrich

From Sr. Goodrich.

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: I have often thought I would like to write a few lines for the REVIEW, but feeling my weakness, I have neglected it; but when I think how many times my heart has been cheered while reading the many testimonies from the brethren and sisters, I feel that perhaps I may be allowed to bear my feeble testimony in favor of present truth. It has been some time since I commenced to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. I feel that I can never tell the feelings of gratitude I owe to God for opening the eyes of my understanding to see the truth; and I can say that never did the light that is shining upon the remnant people of God look so precious to me as it does now. My determination never was stronger to live out the truth, in all its parts, than at the present time.

We are living in a solemn time, when Satan is doing all in his power to draw us from the right way; but it is my earnest prayer that I may be enabled to withstand all his temptations, and go through with the remnant people of God to Mount Zion.

I love all the truths of the third angel's message, and the testimonies to the church never looked so good as now. I believe they are just what we need to prepare us for the trials in the future. Oh! may I heed their teachings, and in the day of God's wrath be found with his redeemed people. Pray for me.
