A Lonely Believer’s Appeal
Sister C. E. Gazin writes from Indian River, N. Y.: "I desire to say a few words through the Review to the brethren and sisters whose words of admonition and encouragement have so often cheered and strengthened me. I thank God for the privilege of reading the paper, as it is all the preacher we have. It has been almost two years since we have had any words of consolation from those of like faith; but praised be the Lord, his word and his grace is sufficient; he is a present help in time of need. How good is he to show us our faults, and help us to correct them. I have been trying for some time past to get nearer the Lord, and the more I try, the nearer the Lord draws to me. O praised be the name of the Lord for condescending to look upon such an unworthy worm of the dust. "We would be very glad to have some of the preaching brethren come this way and hold meetings in this place if they should feel it duty to do so; but if duty calls some other way, we say, Go sound the message to fallen man; and the prayer of your unworthy sister shall attend you. Brethren and sisters, you who have the privilege of mingling your voices in prayer around the throne, remember the lonely ones. I believe the time will soon come when the children of God will meet to part no more."
