Seeking Meekness and Righteousness
Sister Jane M. Lowrey writes from Lorain, N. Y., Jan. 6th, 1857: "I find my heart often encouraged and made glad in hearing from the dear saints through the Review. It is a great privilege to me to be reckoned with those whom the Lord shall rebuke and chasten. I do not find any promises to any others. As many as I love I rebuke and chasten. May the Lord help all his dear children to heed the counsel of the faithful and true Witness, and buy gold tried in the fire that we may be rich, and white raiment that we may be clothed, and anoint our eyes with eye-salve that we may see. I feel many times astonished at the goodness and long suffering of the Lord with his people in giving them warning after warning calculated to arouse and prepare them for his coming. I mean by his assistance to seek meekness and righteousness, if perchance I may be hid in the day of his anger."
