Smith Wigglesworth A Soul Winner for Christ: I Will Make You A Fisher of Men

Smith Wigglesworth: From the time of my conversion, I became a SOUL-winner. The first person I won for Christ was my dear mother. I was possessed with a mighty zeal, a burning desire to get people to know my Savior. At that time, I was always getting in touch with boys and talking to them about SALVATION. I had many rebuffs and rebukes. I wanted to share the great joy I had, but so many did not seem too eager to listen to me, and that was a great mystery to me. I suppose I was not very tactful. I always carried a Testament with me even though I was not able to read much.When I was twenty years of age, I moved to Liverpool, and the power of God was mightily upon me. I had a great desire to help young people. Every week I used to gather around me scores of boys and girls, barefooted, ragged, and hungry. I earned good money, but I spent all of it on food for those children. They would congregate in the sheds in the docks, and what meetings we had!Hundreds of them were SAVEDHundreds of them were SAVED. A friend of mine and I devoted ourselves to visiting the hospitals and also the ships. God gave me a great heart for the poor. I used to work hard and spend all I had on the poor and have nothing for myself. I fasted all day every Sunday and prayed, and I never remember seeing less than fifty SOULs SAVED by the power of God in the meetings with the children, in the hospitals, on the ships, and the SALVATION Army. These were the days of great SOUL awakening.Read more
