EMILY. M. LANGDON

By Emily M. Langdon

From Sister Landon.

BRO. WHITE: I love from week to week to read in the Review the cheering testimonies of the saints scattered abroad. I, too, feel like casting in my mite, although weak and unworthy. My earnest desire is to press forward with God's people. When I contemplate the beauties of that blessed land which is to be the future home of the faithful, my heart is filled with rapture and praise to my Saviour that such a great plan of salvation was provided for man, that we may by fulfilling the conditions thereof become joint heirs with him to the kingdom which God has promised to them that love him.
I am striving to make my calling and election sure before the storm of wrath shall pass over the earth, to lay the land desolate. I have thrown aside every known idol and am daily searching my heart to see if all is right in the sight of my Master. I want to be one of those that shall have right to the tree of life.
Dear brethren and sisters, it is death to sleep now, while Satan is marshaling his mighty hosts for the last conflict. But we can rejoice that if we are faithful, we shall ere long see our absent Lord coming the second time. Oh! let us strive to have the evidence of our acceptance day by day, and be ready to meet him with joy and rejoicing.
Your sister in hope of eternal life.
