Encouragement from a Faithful Sister
By Sarah Jane Gardner
DEAR BRO. WHITE:—I rejoice for the privilege of informing you that our determinations are still to go on and inquire for the old paths to walk in. We are sure by the signs of the times and every thing around us that we are living in the last of this world's history, and how carefully we ought to live if we would have the privilege of standing with the Lamb upon mount Zion and shouting victory over the beast and over his image.24Dear brother, we sympathize with you in your affliction; you have our prayers that God will sustain you under all your trials, and at last bring you off conqueror through him that hath loved you. We are glad for the privilege of reading the Review. It brings rich food for the soul, and oft our hearts are cheered by the thrilling testimonies of the brethren and sisters scattered abroad. O how we love them, though we have never seen them; but if faithful we hope to meet where parting will be no more. Pray for us that we may continue faithful to the end. Yours striving for eternal life through Christ.
SARAH JANE GARDNER.
