Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religious Experience and Journal of Mrs. Jarena Lee: Giving an Account of Her Call to Preach the Gospel My parents being wholly ignorant of the knowledge of God, had not therefore instructed me in any degree in this great matter. Not long after the commencement of my attendance on this lady, she had bid me do something respecting my work, which in a little while after she asked me if I had done, when I replied, Yet - but this was not true. At this awful point, in my early history, the Spirit of God moved in power through my conscience, and told me I was a wretched sin ner. On this account so great was the impression, and so strong were the feelings of guilt, that I promised in my heart that I would not tell another lie. But notwithstanding this promise my heart grew harder, after a while, yet the Spirit of the Lord never entirely forsook me, but con tinned mercifully striving with me, until his gracious power converted my soul. The manner of this great accomplishment, was as follows: In the year 1804, it so happened that I went with others to hear a mission ary of the Presbyterian order preach. It was an afternoon meeting, but few were there, the place was a school room; but the preacher was solemn, and in his countenance the earnestness of his master's business appeared equally strong, as though he were about to speak to a multitude. At the reading of the Psalms, a ray of renewed conviction darted into my soul. These were the words, composing the first verse of the Psalms for the service.
