Thanks for Present Truth
By Dianna Lyon
DEAR BRO. WHITE: I would like to express through the columns of the Review my sincere and heartfelt thanks that through a kind Providence my life has been spared to hear the startling truths of the third angel's message. It is now about a year since I commenced trying to keep all of God's commandments, and I fully realize the fact that we must watch unto prayer, and lead sober and consistent lives; for the day of the Lord is nigh at hand. I am determined through a sustaining providence to live separate from the world, and all its vain allurements; and I can truly say that I would not exchange my hope of eternal life for all the pleasures that this world can bestow. I will say to the brethren and sisters scattered abroad that I feel a sweet union with them, and trust that we may prove faithful in our duty to our heavenly Father, faithful to our fellow-laborers and fellow-sufferers, and, when the Master comes, reap a rich reward. Your sister seeking for eternal life. Marquette, Green Lake Co., Wis.
