LETTERS.

"Then they that feared the Lord, spake often one to another."

From Sr. Huntley.

DEAR BRO. WHITE: For the first time I attempt to speak in behalf of the cause I love. I have often thought, that were mine the pen of a ready writer, cheerfully would I contribute to the columns of the Review, but I know that I must improve my one talent. It has been a little over two years since I first heard and embraced the third angel's message; and during that time I have made many crooked paths, but I thank God that I have yet a desire to overcome all of my evil besetments. I want to live so that when Jesus comes I can hear the welcome news, "Well done, good and faithful servant." I know that I have much to do before I can be ready for the great change that awaits the people of God. I praise God to-day for the glorious truths of the third angel's message, and my daily prayer is that we may all live them out, and finally gain a humble seat in the everlasting kingdom.

Dear brethren and sisters, let us live out our profession. It is one that is well calculated to make us holy if we live it out. Let us strive momentarily to overcome. Truly we are living in solemn times, and let us redouble our diligence to make our peace, calling, and election sure with God. My prayer to God is that he will speed on the good work of the third angel, and prepare us for the time when it shall go forth with a loud cry. I am very thankful for the Review, and do not know how I should get along without it.

Your sister striving for holiness.

ABBY B. HUNTLEY.
