Then there were............

As I was doing a little bit of net surfing and looking at blogs the other night I came across this interesting, but accurate little poem. It challenged me I guess because we have just started the Bill Hybels teaching series in the church "Just Walk Across the Room" and are talking all about evangelism and how easy it can be......................

Ten little Salvos, standing in a line, one disliked the officer,

then there were nine.
Nine little Salvos stayed up wery late, one slept in on a Sunday,

then there were eight.
Eight little Salvos on their way to heaven, one took his own road,

then there were seven.
Seven little Salvos chirping like some chicks, one disliked the songster leader,

then there were six.
Six little Salvos seemed very much alive, but one lost his interest,

then there were five.
Five little Salvos pulling for heavens shore, but one stopped to rest,

then there were four.
Four little Salvos, busy as a bee, one got her feelings hurt,

then there were three.
Three little Salvos knew not what to do, one couldn't forgive another,

then there were two.
Two earnest Salvos, each won one more, that doubled the number,

then there were four.
Four sincere Salvos worked early and worked late, each won another,

then there were eight.
Eight splendid Salvos, if they doubled as before,

in just a few short weeks, we'd have 1024

(Written by a Captain of the Salvation Army)

Our forefather had a vision to change the world one soul at a time. Although at times it may seem hard to believe- it can still be done today.

Praise God that His grace is the same today as it ever was at any time in history and He can give us all we need for the task, let's get out and do it!
