This is William Booth the founder of the Salvation Army's last famous speech:While women weep, as they do now,
I'll fight; while little children
go hungry, as they do now,
I'll fight; while men
go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now,
go to prison, in and out, in and out, as they do now,
I'll fight; while there
is a drunkard left, while there is a poor lost girl upon the streets, while there remains one dark soul without the light of God, I'll fight-I'll fight to the very end!”
(From: BOOTH THE BELOVED, by J Evan
Smith (Oxford University Press, 1949), pages 123-12)

Isaiah 61:4 “They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long
devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for
generations.”
devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for
generations.”
The challenge is for each one of us to say yes to God and become part of the answer, we need to as we are challenged "fight", fights for people's salvation and keep fighting until we see God's kingdom come in our community, until we see the whole community impact and won for Jesus!
