Faithfulness in Spiritual Isolation
Sister C. B. Spaulding writes from Metamora, Ills.: “There are no Sabbath-keepers in this vicinity that I know of, not even any of my own family. I sometimes feel almost discouraged living all alone, with no one to associate with of like precious faith; but still the truth is precious. Feeling thankful that I ever heard the Third Angel’s Message, and that I have been enabled to try to keep all the Commandments of God, I mean also to have the Faith of Jesus, that I may be permitted to stand on the mount Zion with all the blood-washed throng, never more to be separated from those we love. It is a consolation to me to think that I can have the prayers of the saints, although I cannot meet with them.”
