By H. F. Terwilliger

From Sr. Terwilliger.

DEAR BRETHREN AND SISTERS: As I read your cheering testimonies, I am encouraged to add mine to those already given. I have been trying to keep the Sabbath for ten years, though I have done many things that I fear have been displeasing to the Lord; yet I am still trying, in my weakness, to serve him. I have felt the chastening hand of the Lord many times, yet I think it was sent in love. This world is a world of sorrow, yet I am looking for the time when sorrow and death will be done away.
Oh, that blessed hope! How it cheers us to think our Saviour is soon coming! Then let us try to prepare to meet him with joy and not with grief. I believe the coming of the Lord is near, and my prayer is for a humble and contrite heart, that I may live near to the Lord, so that when he comes I can be prepared to meet him in peace.
Dear brethren and sisters, I ask an interest in your prayers that I may prove faithful unto the end, and meet you where parting will be no more.
Your sister striving for a home in Heaven.
