Communications from Scattered Believers
Sister M. F. Conklin writes from Central City: For about six years I have been trying to keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus, and it is almost three years since I have heard any preaching, or had the privilege of meeting with those of like precious faith. But the Lord has said that his grace was sufficient for us; and if we will but put our trust in him, he will never leave nor forsake us. I sometimes feel lonely, but have the consolation of knowing that God is not confined to numbers, but is willing to meet even one. D. E. Gibson writes from Melrose, Wis.: The Review is a welcome messenger of present truth to us. As I read the communications from the scattered ones, it cheers my heart to press onward. There are a few here who are still striving to overcome all the evil besetments of our hearts, that we may stand on mount Zion. Bro. Wm. Worters writes from Brighton, Mich.: About five years ago last summer, I went to a tent-meeting at Milford, Oak. Co., and heard Bro. Lawrence lecture on the Sabbath question. That convinced me that the seventh day was the Sabbath of the Lord. I thank God that I was convinced of the truth. That very night I made a solemn resolve that I would keep the Sabbath; and I have kept it so far, though through much persecution. Last summer I was baptized and joined the church at Milford. I praise the Lord that I ever saw the light; and I desire to walk in it, and be prepared for the coming Saviour.
