Persevering Toward the Crown of Life
Sister S. M. Inman writes, March, 1858: "It has been about three years and a half since I commenced trying to keep the Sabbath, with all the rest of the Commandments of God and the Faith of Jesus; but being surrounded by temptation on every side, as we all are, I sometimes feel afraid that I shall fail of getting ready to meet Jesus when he comes. But I can truly say that God being my helper, I will persevere and fight a little longer that I may come off conqueror and receive a crown of life. I live at a considerable distance from any Sabbath-keepers, and desire the prayers of all God's people that I may live faithful and meet them in the kingdom."
