A Lone Sabbath Keeper Encouraged

Sister S. A. Wing writes from Brotherstown, Wis., “Bro. Smith : I wish to say a few words through the Review to the brethren and sisters. It is but about two months since I first commenced to keep the Sabbath of our God. I find that there is a blessing in obeying God. My attention was first called to the third angel’s message by Bro. Alden. I thank God that he ever came here. There are no Sabbath-keepers here but myself. I sometimes feel lonely, but when I read the cheering epistles of my brethren and sisters in the Review, I feel encouraged to go on. I know that Jesus will not tarry long. I wish to be one that shall be found at his coming ready and waiting. Brethren and sisters, what if the world does scoff and ridicule the people of God. This should not hinder our homeward walk. It should only draw us closer together. We know that God will have a tried people ; why then should we shun persecution ? Assist me brethren and sisters, and may we all meet at God’s right hand in the kingdom of our Lord.”
