| Serving With Tears |
| Billy Bray was born in Twelveshead England on June 1st, 1794. He was a unique vessel used mightily of the Lord in the salvation of many souls. Here is his own testimony regarding his work amongst the miners of the Cornwall district: |
| “When the Lord converted my soul He gave me power to pray with the men before we went to our different places to work in the mines. I used to pray, ‘Lord, if any of us must be killed today, let it be me; let not one of these men die. If I die today I shall go to heaven.’ When I would rise from my knees I would see tears running down their faces.” |
| It isn’t much wonder that he saw many, many of those miners saved, and many converted from lives of sinful degradation to be brilliant lights for the Lord. |
| This account reminds me of the Apostle Paul’s words as he summed up his path of service for Christ: “Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears…I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears” (Acts 20:19, 31). |
