Determined to Follow Christ
Sister S. Robinson writes from Union: “It is a great source of consolation to me to hear of so many who are willing to follow Jesus. My desire is that we may follow him more closely, obey his commands, be enabled to watch and pray always that we may be accounted worthy to escape all those things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. It is my desire that we may be kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation, and be strong in the Lord and the power of his might, and put on the whole armor of God and be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil. I still am determined to walk in the straight path that leadeth unto life—eternal life beyond the grave. I am determined in the strength of the Lord to keep his Sabbath and obey his commands as far as in me lies, and I hope through his grace assisting me to come off more than conqueror. I have trials in common with all who will try to live in Christ, but my greatest trials come from within.”
