Sacrifice for Souls
1 Corinthians 9:20-22
And to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law…


All things are easy which are done for the love of God and of the souls which He loves. A lady who had a most sensitive ear for music — so much so, that a note out of tune caused her intense discomfort — joined one of our English Sisterhoods. Being visited one day by a friend, she was found placidly seated in an outhouse, in the midst of a most horrible din, raised by a number of lads whom she was forming into a drum and fife band. "How can you possibly endure this noise?" asked her friend. "Oh," was the sweet reply, "it's very good for souls!"
