Is It Worth While?

"Is it worth while?" is the title of a mini-article I read today.

It came from a most unusual source.

Yesterday afternoon my wife was given a copy of a small 'Magazine,' published by the Londonderry Baptist Church in September 1951.

On page 2 this brief illustration is reprinted from 'The Messenger':

"It is said that in the mines of South Africa 400 tons of dirt must be removed to get one ounce of diamond.

If we win only one soul to Christ with all our efforts, will it not be worth while?

Each sinner is a diamond in the rough, even though we do have to move lots of dirt to get to him."

I applied this to our 'Consider Christ' Campaign – and rejoice that with at least 2 souls led to the Saviour as a direct result of the Campaign so far, it has been all worth while!
