The Value of One Soul…

It's hard to understand how Christ loves us so much that He would risk all, even for one of us…and how we should risk all to save others. I keep praying, "Lord, give me this kind of love! A love that will put my all on the line to save souls!"

"For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that sheep, than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish." Matt. 18:11-14

"The wealth of earth dwindles into insignificance when compared with the worth of a single soul for whom our Lord and Master died. He who weighted the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance, regards a human soul as of infinite value." Gospel Workers, p. 92

Review:

• Bible Thought: It is not God's will that even ONE should perish!
• Blessing: I'm so thankful He was willing to come for even one, because if there was only one, it probably would have been ME!
• Battles: Praying to have a greater heart of love for the lost…
