H. F. PHELPS

By H. F. Phelps

Minnesota.

FOR about one year, Bro. Ellis and myself have labored together in this good cause. Our labors have been most agreeable. No jar nor discord has occurred to mar our union. As we look back, we can see that some good has been done, not by our strength nor wisdom, but by the blessing of God. To God be all the glory.
A few have embraced the truth and given their hearts to God. We should be glad could we look back and see that more had been accomplished. But could we be assured that two souls even from the past year's labors would be saved eventually, and that two more would be gained the next year, and so on year by year to the end, we could and would labor cheerfully on.
As for myself, I humbly deplore my past mistakes. But when I stumble, by the grace of God I will rise again, and will try to avoid the same pit-falls hereafter. Before me lies another year; and what shall its records be? They will be just what I shall make them. I will try to be upon the Lord's side. I will try to come “up to the help of the Lord against the mighty.”
Pray for me. In hope of life.
