A Soon Coming Saviour

By Ellen T. Kimball

From Sister Kimball.

Bro. Smith: I feel to thank the Lord that I have had the privilege of hearing his precious truth, and that I had a willing heart to obey it. Although I meet with trials and temptations, in the strength of Jesus I will try to overcome. O the blessed hope of a soon coming Saviour! I do want to get ready for that glorious day which will bring deliverance to all God's tried and suffering ones, and set death's captives free! I would not exchange the hope I have of sharing with them for all the pleasures of this world. Let me suffer with God's dear children here, that in a little while I may rejoice with them where sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

It seems that the way grows more straight and narrow every day; and I feel that I need much strength to enable me to go through. I long to be filled with the sweet Spirit of Jesus. I want to be wholly the Lord's, and feel willing to give up everything, that I may indeed be a child of God. ELLEN. T. KIMBALL. Roxbury, Vt.
