Keep on Praying.

"Do you think," I asked "that the Lord will let me see in this life the salvation of the souls for whom I pray?" "I cannot say as to that. When I was a child in the Sabbath school in the old country," she continued, "my faithful teacher used to say, 'I have prayed too much for my class for one of them to be lost.'" I was a thoughtless girl at the time, and remember wondering at it, and thinking it a very self-confident remark. She was so sure. 'I shall have them all,' she would say; I shall say to Christ at the Judgment, here am I and the class thou hast given me." "And were they all converted?" "Yes; she did not live to see it, but my eyes have seen it—the last of the sixteen gathered into the fold."—Witnessing for Jesus.
