A Daily Christian Life
By John Heligass
Bro. White: Permit me to give in my testimony in behalf of the cause I so much love. I bless the name of the Lord for the light I have received in his word. I can truly say that it is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. It has been about three years and six months since I commenced to keep the Sabbath of the Lord in sincerity of heart; and I find great comfort in trying to keep all the commandments of God. Oh, who of us would wish to come short of eternal life! I mean to try, with the help of the Lord, to put forth more of an effort to be a daily Christian. I feel willing to be counted among that poor, and, at present, despised company, who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus; for Christ says that in this world we shall have tribulation, but in the world to come life everlasting. I know I have many imperfections, and I have not as much of the Spirit of Christ as I desire to have. I find the only way for me is to watch and pray. O that we might feel the responsibility that rests upon us who profess to be commandment-keepers. May God help us to let our light so shine that those around us may take knowledge of us, and see that we have learned of Jesus. Dear brethren, pray for us here at Lynxville, that we may be enabled to arise with the message when it goes forth with a loud cry. Yours in hope of eternal life.
