The Desire of Every Great Soul Winner – Samuel Brengle

by | December 11, 2015

 

It is said that Sheridan went to battle with all the fury of a madman, and recklessly exposed himself to the shot and shell of the enemy. He told General Horace Porter that he never went into a battle from which he cared to come back alive unless he came as a victor. This desperation made him an irresistible inspiration to his own troops, and enabled him to hurl them like thunderbolts against his foes. If he became so desperate in killing men, how much more desperate, if possible, should we become in our effort and desire to save them!

It was written of Jesus, “The zeal of Thine house hath eaten me up,” and so it can be of every great soul-winner.
