Rescue the perishing ( Luke 15 v7 )

Recently I visited a dear friend I have known for many years,he comes from Dublin,I come from Belfast, now he is housebound , can't walk very much .On my visit he shared  his experience as a  hospice chaplain ,he told of two people  he had led to the Lord .One was a Jewish lady who came to know her Messiah, the next was an old man who was very afraid of dying, my friend spoke to him about Jesus,his son was present and  became annoyed with my friend told him not to talk to his father about Jesus,but his father told him to keep be quiet and let his pastor speak.He said to my friend that he didn't know how to pray, my friend said he would tell him what to pray,and so he trusted the Saviour.My friend spoke to his son saying that his father would soon close his eyes in death, and then he would open his eyes in heaven and he would see Jesus.I was really blest listening to what my friend said,he told me when he had finished,he went back to his office ,knelt down and wept tears of joy.

                                                                

                                                            'He that winneth souls is wise

                                                            In the home beyond the skies,
