Striving Toward Mount Zion

From Sister Rogers.

Bro. White: I for the first time try to contribute a few lines to the pages of the Review. I have been trying to walk in the narrow way ever since Bro. Hull was here, three years ago. I was a Sabbath-keeper before, but have since seen the necessity of striving to live out the truth as I never did before. I have passed through many trials, but out of them all the Lord has delivered me so far. Praise his holy name! And his promise is sure, to be with his people to the end.
I feel as much as ever determined to press my way onward to mount Zion. That is the first object of my life, to be prepared for the coming of my blessed Lord. I want to be ever humble, prayerful, and watchful over my own heart, and be always ready to do my Saviour's will. He says, In the world ye shall have tribulation; but in me ye shall have peace. I want to live so as to have that peace, and be enabled to overcome every trial and temptation, that I may have an inheritance in that kingdom which the Saviour of the world is preparing for his faithful ones.
Your sister striving to overcome. SARAH A. ROGERS. Victoria, Mo.
