“One More Makes all the Difference”

So said a lady, looking up into her friend’s face with sparkling eyes. “Remember one more makes all the difference.” I went on my way thinking, “one more makes all the difference.” One more what? Ah! there are many “one mores”: one more day to live! one more penny, shilling or pound to give! one more soul to save! one more pleasure, one more sin, one more aching heart to comfort, or one more loving heart to grieve; one more soldier to help, or one more sailor to neglect; one more Testament to send to the Front, or one more parcel to neglect sending. “I gave him my Testament,” says an Army Scripture Reader, “the only one I had left.” Will you not send him “one more,” and win one more soul for Jesus? Yes, a gem for the crown of Jesus. All the good “one mores” you do, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus (Col. 3:17). Think of the one more parcel of Testaments I ask you to give as a call from Jesus, just as that dear, tired-out hospital nurse said, when seeking a little rest. “One more” bell rang. “There,” said she, “Jesus is calling; He wants me.” Yes, He would have you to send HIM one more parcel of Testaments today. “‘Remember, one more makes all the difference” in the one hundred thousand we are anxious to send to our soldiers and sailors.
