FROM A YOUNG CANVASSER.
By F. E. Lane
I reached my place of labor on Sunday, and began my work Monday morning. At first I met with some hard trials, but remembered that it was God’s work and that he was able to lead me through. I know that the Lord has work for me to do. By the middle of the week I began to feel as if there was no one but myself in this part of the country. I thought if I could only have Brother Phillips or the State agent to work with me, it would not be so lonesome; but I said we are all working together, only in different parts of the vineyard; we are working for the same master. I am of good courage to press on, and with the help of the Lord I can do the work. Pray for the work in this section of the field. F. E. LANE. [During the first week this canvasser labored, he worked 57 hours, took 23 orders, valued at $60, and sold $3.70 worth of helps. He is working for “Great Controversy.” He is a young man, and has had no previous experience. Surely this proves that our large books can be sold, not only by our old and experienced workers, but by all who go forth with the Spirit of the Master, and for the purpose of saving souls in the kingdom of God.—ED.]
