One Mans Desire

[stephen]

"I do now most heartily desire to live but to exalt Jesus; to live preaching and to die preaching; to preach to perishing sinners till I drop down dead."



--H. Grattan Guiness (1835-1910)

Thank you Stephen for posting this

Praise the Lord for Guiness's wonderful testimony of the Lord's saving grace

What a powerful, compassionate influence he had on Ireland and England in his time

O that our hearts would burn so lovingly for the unsaved

He also said

"I sought solitary places in the woods where I could pour out my soul in prayer, with strong crying and tears. Old things passed away, and all things became new. How could I keep silence, knowing as I did, that those around me (in Ireland) were utterly ignorant of the salvation in which I was rejoicing, and most of them abject slaves of Roman superstition."

Thine is the kingdom O Lord
1 Chronicles 29:11

May I honestly live with such a desire
