A Vision For Lost Souls

Proverbs 29:18  Where there is no vision, the people perish; but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
Good folks and bad folks die every day without knowing Jesus as their personal Savior. Are we concerned?  God gave Paul a vision for lost souls. In Acts 16 people were saved, families baptized, cities stirred, and prayers answered. The work of God flourished.
We need a vision like Livingstone had when he went to Africa. He walked among the people and braved the rigors of that land. Diseases racked his body, and a fever almost killed him.
He loved them to God until thousands were saved. They found him dead in the little pup tent, kneeling at his cot and praying, "O God, give me Africa." 
The natives said, "His body belongs to England, but his heart belongs to Africa. Leave it here." So his heart was taken from his body and buried in the soil of Africa.
They sent his body back to England to be buried in Westminster Abbey where kings and important people of history are buried.
People need The Lord. How will they hear if we don't tell them?
