Self-Examination and Repentance

By Wm. Lawton

From Bro. Lawton.

DEAR BRO. WHITE: I try to be thankful that I have a desire to unite with the friends of truth in a season of humiliation, self-examination and prayer. My desire this morning is, that I may have strength imparted to examine myself thoroughly before the Lord. I want to see my errors and my sins, in this day of atonement; and when I see them, my prayer is, Lord impart strength that I may be zealous in repenting of them, that they may be blotted out "when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord." Acts iii, 19. Brother and sister White, and all the friends, pray for me, that I may do the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matt. vii, 21; xii, 50.
Yours searching for truth, WM. LAWTON.
