Sister M. M. Buckland writes from Carlton, N. Y.: “I am still trying to obey God by keeping all his commandments, and striving to walk in the narrow path that leads to life. I feel very thankful for the light of present truth. I rejoice that I have ever heard the sound of the third angel’s message, and that I had a heart willing to obey it. It is nearly two years since I commenced keeping the Sabbath of the Lord, and I feel that I have been greatly blessed in so doing. I have no desire to turn back from this good way; for I feel that my only safety is in obedience to the Lord. I have set out to serve the Lord, and I must not go back; but by the grace of God assisting me, I am determined to press my way onward, and strive to make heaven my home. I feel that it is a great thing to be indeed a follower of the meek and lowly Jesus; and to have every word, and thought, and act, right in the sight of God. It seems that the way grows more straight and narrow every day; and I feel that I need much grace and strength to enable me to go through to the kingdom; but my trust is in the Lord, and I do believe that if I lean upon his strong arm he will lead me safely through. “I long to be filled with the sweet Spirit of Jesus, and to fully reflect his lovely image. I want to be wholly the Lord's and I am willing, if I know my own heart, to give up everything, that I may be indeed a child of God. I want to be ready for the coming of Jesus; and it is my determination to strive earnestly to overcome every besetment, that I may be found worthy of a crown of life at the appearing of my Saviour.”
