Walking in the King’s Highway
Sister M. W. Steere writes from E. McDonough, N. Y.: "I feel a desire to let all know that I am still endeavoring to walk in the King's highway of holiness as laid down in the book of God. I want to praise God with all my heart for his mercy in giving me a desire to know the truths of his word and a heart to obey them. I shall never, in this life, be able to tell the consolation and satisfaction I have already received. My heart kindles in a flame of love to God and all his47dear children. And O, what a privilege he gives us, in letting us hope to share in his kingdom; for 'O, what must it be to be there.' Satan is indeed rallying his forces, and it seems as though no means is left untried. He is sending his waves of mirth, folly, plays and gambling with novel-reading over the land till it seems as though the youth especially would nearly all be engulfed in it and lost forever. O that we may all awake to righteousness, and cry mightily to God that he may carry forward his work. Let us all strive to be up and at work in his vineyard while we have the opportunity, remembering we are not our own, but we are bought with his blood, therefore we must glorify him in our bodies and spirits which are his."
