Keeping God’s Law in the Last Days
Sister P. Conklin writes from Halley Mills, Mich.: "What a consolation there is in keeping God's holy law! I firmly believe that the seventh day is God's holy rest-day, and should not we rejoice that God in his mercy has shown us the light of present truth, shown us the time in which we are living? for I truly believe that we are living in the very last days, and O what lives should we live, who believe that time is so short. How often is my heart heavy and sad when I look at myself and think, should my Saviour come even this year, am I ready, or should I be ready in that time? I want the prayers and sympathy of those who are striving to make heaven their home." "I can sympathize with dear brethren and sisters in bereavement; for God in his providence has seen fit to call away from me a dear mother and loved sister. How can I give them up? and yet how can I repine? for I know that the Lord does all things well."
