Washington Ter

By Augusta Morehouse

From Sr. Morehouse.

Dear Brethren and Sisters: Your cheering testimonies encourage me to press forward with renewed zeal toward the kingdom of God. I desire to give my testimony in behalf of the truth of the third angel's message and for the Review. I am trying to keep the commandments of God with all my heart. If I can say at last, I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith, there is laid up a crown of righteousness which the Lord the righteous judge shall give me at that day, and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing, it will be enough. Oh! what a glorious hope and most precious promise, that our blessed Saviour is soon coming, and will clothe us with immortality. We shall together wing our happy, joyous flight from this dreary world.

“Then let us be faithful, Soon Jesus will come, For whom we have waited so long, Soon, soon, we shall enter our glorious home, And join in the conqueror's song.”

I am praying earnestly that God in his mercy will help us to arouse and put on the whole armor, and so then that we may be able to stand firm in the great day.

And I would say to the children, Turn to the Lord, give your hearts to God, and come to Jesus while you may find him. He makes and gives peace, seek for pardon through Jesus, there is a Heaven of glory for all who come to him.
