If sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies. And if they will perish, let them perish with our arms around their knees, imploring them to stay. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for.
Charles H. Spurgeon
This quote almost has me in tears. I know I need more compassion for the lost. Jesus saw them as "sheep without a shepherd" and had compassion on them. I need the compassion that Jesus had. I should be weeping over lost sinners being damned to hell for eternity. I should be telling them about judgment day and that there is hope in Christ. I should be on my knees praying for their souls.
I can only pray that God will give me such compassion!
Until the nets are full,

You are a very compassionate person, Kirsten, and you have a huge compassion especially for the lost! Sayings like that of Charles H. Spurgeon touch me deeply, but don't move me to tears, and I think I am a pretty compassionate person. I think you have tremendous zeal and passion for the lost, and honestly, I don't think many people (if any) have more!
God Bless!
