"do good to souls"

"Look forward,
look onward and forward to the end!
Your best things are yet to come.
Time is short.
The end is drawing near.
The latter days of the world are upon us.
Fight the good fight.
Labor on.
Work on.
Strive on.
Read on.
Labor hard for your own soul's prosperity.
Labor hard for the prosperity of the souls of others.
Strive to bring a few more with you to heaven,
and by all means to save some.

Do something,
by God's help,
to make heaven more full
and hell more empty.

Speak to that young man by your side,
and that old person who lives near to your house.
Speak to that neighbor who nevers goes to a house of worship.
Speak to that relative who never reads the Bible in private,
and makes a mockery of serious religion.

Entreat them all to think about their souls.
Beg them
 to go and hear something on Sundays
which will be for their good unto
everlasting life.

Great is your reward in heaven,
if you try to do good to souls.
Great is the reward of all who confess Christ before others."

I absolutely love this quote!!!
