For some time he prayed earnestly that the Lord would
raise up a friend to go with him. This petition has been fully
answered.
"Mr. Lund then rose, and told us that whence, student in Stockholm
the desire to work in Spain had been laid on his heart for nearly
four years. He studied the language, but, seeing no opening, was on
the point of starting for America, when he received a letter from Mr.
Guinness which entirely altered his plans. He came to London, and on
meeting Senor Previ, offered to accompany him to Spain. The two
brethren earnestly requested the prayers of the meeting for their new
and difficult work."
The prayers here offered were more than answered. The first labourer
has fallen in the field, but others have filled the ranks, and the
light kindled in a dark place is now shining brightly.
Miss Macpherson's own words here follow:--
"What is the cry from all ends of the earth? For men and women to
witness of a Saviour's love by His death and resurrection. And we are
not only to pray the Lord to send forth labourers into the fields
that are white, but to look at the things we oft call our own as
belonging to another. There are hundreds of young men and women who
have been brought to the truth, and whose souls long to be free for
Christ's service, but they need a helping hand in little things.
