Listen from:
Mr. Bailey likes to give out gospel tracts to people on the street. One day he gave a man a tract the title of which was, “I’m Not Going to a Christless Grave. Are You?”
Ten years later Mr. Bailey was visiting a town about eighty miles away. Suddenly a man on the street came up to him and warmly shook his hand. He said, “You’re the man who gave me a tract many years ago. I want to tell you that I am NOT going to a Christ-less grave now! Jesus is my Saviour.”
The Lord says, “My Word... shall not return unto Me void.” (Isa. 55:1111So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (Isaiah 55:11).) The Lord never forgets any little work we do out of love for Him. We may not see the results here, but He still wants us to sow the Gospel seed.
