"Soul-pain is the price of conversions.........
.....If you want to win souls for Christ, you must be willing to endure the anguish for sin that sinners do not experience, in order to win at least ultimately the grace of repentance for them.
You may have to go through the agonies of delayed hopes for many hearts, and even seeming failure at the end, for someone whose soul has been your deep concern.
But your sincere devotion to bring a soul to Christ will not be in vain. God knows the secret workings of his grace in souls."
