The Young Soul Winner!
Daniel had just received Christ, and his heart burned with joy like never before. The peace he felt was unexplainable, yet as the days passed, another stirring grew inside him, a burden. Each time his pastor spoke about the love of Christ and the call to win souls, Daniel wondered, “How do I begin? What can I do?” “The Young Soul Winner”
One evening, unable to keep the questions in his heart any longer, he approached his pastor. With sincerity in his voice, he asked, “Pastor, I want to share Christ with others, but I don’t know how. What should I do?”
The pastor smiled warmly and opened his Bible. “Daniel,” he said, “soul winning begins with love. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:14, ‘For the love of Christ compels us.’ It is love that moves us to reach out.”
He continued, “Start with the people around you, your friends, family, classmates, or even a neighbor. Pray for them. Show them kindness. Then, when the moment comes, share the message of Jesus with a heart full of love.”
Daniel listened intently as the pastor read another verse: “Proverbs 11:30 says, ‘He that winneth souls is wise.’ You don’t need to have all the answers; you only need to share the Jesus you’ve experienced. Your testimony is powerful.”
Those words sank deep into Daniel’s heart. For the first time, soul winning didn’t feel like a heavy burden, it felt like a beautiful opportunity to love. That very week, he spoke to a close friend about Christ. With trembling words but a burning heart, he shared the gospel, and his friend gave his life to Jesus.
Tears filled Daniel’s eyes. He understood now: soul winning was not about pressure, but about love. And love will always find a way.
Beloved, just like Daniel, you too can be a light. Begin with one person. Pray, share your story. Let the love of Christ move you, and watch how He uses you to change lives forever.
The world is waiting for the love of Christ you carry. Share it now. From one soul saved to another, the Gospel will reach everyone and every nation.
