Dear Brethren and Sisters: I read with much interest your testimonies in the REVIEW, and feel encouraged to speak a word for the cause of Christ. I have been trying since last August to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. I thank the Lord that I was ever permitted to see the light of present truth. The prayer of my heart is that I may be sanctified through it. I am trying to sever the ties that bind me to this poor, sinful world, and enter unreservedly with all my heart into the service of my Lord and Master. I want to lose sight of the perishing things of earth, and place my affections on things in Heaven. I feel that I must continually send up earnest prayer to God for strength to overcome, if I would secure eternal life. I begin to realize the value of secret prayer. It is the life of the Christian. Oh! may I be often found at the mercy-seat, and have the approving smiles of my blessed Saviour in all that I may do or say. Dear reader, may the Lord help you and me to live to his name’s honor and glory, and at last have a home in the Kingdom of God.
