Encouragement in the Narrow Way
By C. G. Satterlee
BRO. WHITE: We have been greatly strengthened of late by hearing a few very appropriate discourses delivered by Brn. Taylor and Whitney; and we feel a stronger determination to quicken our pace toward the better land. We mean to take heed to the instructions given us. I am thankful to my heavenly Father that I have a humble place among that peculiar people who are looking for the soon coming of the Just One. And truly grateful am I that it was not said of me as it was of Ephraim of old, He is joined to his idols let him alone. Yes, happy am I that the Lord did turn my feet into the path of his testimonies, and gave me a heart to receive the truth. Oh for wisdom to rightly speak, and rightly act, and live out these glorious truths that we may win souls to Christ. I would say to the scattered ones that I am still trying to walk the narrow way and mean by the grace of God to continue to the end of the race. Let us all strive more than ever for perfect victory over sin, and151be more diligent in the way, for as we see the signs of Jesus' soon coming so fast fulfilling, I feel the necessity of stepping fast knowing that the time is short. May God help me to improve it to his glory.
