Title: To Love the Soul
Title: Because I Love the Soul (Matthew 9:35-38)
It seems that it has become autumn now that the mornings and evenings have become chilly. Autumn is also the time to bear fruit. At the beginning of the year, I prayed for the evangelists and wrote a list, but now is the time to bear fruit. The Bible says that God has given me an important mission today as a person of faith who believes first. It is to rescue those souls who are dying for their sins from the path of death. How many people have met God and started a new life because of you? Today, this is the question we need to ask ourselves. How can we become soul rescuers and save souls? God is teaching some things through the life of Jesus and through your life.
He says that in order to lead dying souls to God, we must see them clearly. Before Jesus began His ministry, He saw the crowds and then saw the people who came. I saw them wandering, full of worries, wrong values, and worries. Jesus saw people running down the road of death and saw the troubles and anguish, the wanderings and the advantages hidden behind the smiling faces. Why, then, do we not introduce to God those who run to death? Why not force them to come to God's house? The reason is that we do not see their troubles, their wanderings, and their advantages. You have to look at them accurately. I hope you will be all of us who pray to have eyes like this.
Second, he says that we must not only see them accurately, but also feel their pain. As you can see when Jesus saw the crowd, he felt sorry for them. When Jesus saw the inner condition of the people, his heart ached. I felt their pain as my pain. Jesus knew the heart of the sick.
Everyone! Why don't we evangelize? Why not bring people to God? The reason is that they do not feel their pain deeply. I tell them to put them in their shoes and feel them deeply with their hearts. Only then can we evangelize.
Third, pray for them. Jesus knew that it is not easy for a person to turn from the way of death to the way of eternal life, and he saw that there was a tremendous power of evil behind it. So he told us. "Pray!" Guys, none of our prayers fall to the ground. Do you believe our prayers have been answered? All prayers will be answered, but even if you do not know other prayers, please believe that prayers for the salvation of souls will always be answered.
Saints! We are all called to love souls. I hope that the love of one soul will be like a spark for us in 2002, which is not too far away. So, "Lord, make me the rescue of my soul!" May this be your prayer, I bless you in the name of the Lord.
