A Reminiscence

I remember blaming my mother for sending me to church on the Sabbath.

On one occasion the preacher had to send some one into the gallery to

wake me up. I thought it was hard to have to work in the field all the

week, and then be obliged to go to church and hear a sermon I didn't

understand. I thought I wouldn't go to church any more when I got away

from home; but I had got so in the habit of going that I couldn't stay

away. After one or two Sabbaths, back again to the house of God I

went. There I first found Christ, and I have often said since:

"Mother, I thank you for making me go to the house of God when I

didn't want to go."
