I was brought to the Lord out in the West. Two of my companions perished in the earthquake and fire at San Francisco, but I had left the doomed city ten days before the disaster.
When I read the account of it in the papers, it brought to my mind what I had often heard about the panic that will come upon sinners in the judgment, when they will cry out, “Rocks, fall on us and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb.” Revelation 6:1616And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: (Revelation 6:16).
God spared me, and showed me I was not ready to meet Him.
My parents and two of my brothers are Christians, and they must have seen I was in distress. They told me of Jesus, the sinner’s Refuge, and to Him I fled.
He took me as I was, and I have His Word that He will not cast me out.
I am saved and happy now. His Word is sweet, His work is a delight. Seven of us, all lately saved, are in a Bible Class, which is a great help to us in our spiritual life.
