I don't know if this is relevant. Your post just reminded me of this. I wish I could find the actual quote.

These are awesome words by Mother Theresa!!!
I remember a few years ago, I went to a concert with our son. A Christian group, although not the headliners, were playing as the opening band. A very large group of young people were in attendance. Although we left after the opening band, I left there with a huge burden. There were so many young people with no direction in their lives. It was an outdoor concert and we had to stand in a very long line that looped around, and so I was able to observe for, at least, two hours.
The next day, I was asking the Lord how it was possible to reach them all. He impressed on me the thought that I should pray for one person in each community to reach out to the lost. Because, it only takes the burden of one person to begin a revival.
Praying for you, Cindy!
