Courage Amid Trials

Sister E. H. Vanornum writes from Edward N. Y., "Dear brethren and sisters: I have felt incapable of saying anything through the Review to edify any; but I know if I was where I could meet with you, I could not hold my peace. Others have expressed my feelings many times. It is now past two years since I commenced keeping the Sabbath of the Lord. I have my trials and discouragements, and at times it seems as though the waves would overflow me; but I feel that Jesus has stood by me; and I desire ever to be thankful to his holy name. The goodness of God has followed me all the days of my life. I can see harmony in God's word which I never beheld before. I feel to take courage, to be more watchful and prayerful. I hope to overcome every sin and run the Christian race with patience, looking unto Jesus who has done so much for me. Brethren and sisters let us be faithful, that we may at last hear the lovely Jesus say, Come ye blessed of my Father inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world."
