Beloved,
Prov 11:30  The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is 
wise.
If winning souls is a sign of wisdom, we must seek wisdom, Living the life of Christ, 
being led by the Spirit, etc.
James 3:17  But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and 
easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without 
hypocrisy.
We truly are as books, 2 Cor 3:2  Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and 
read of all men: all men are looking, what will they see in our lives, it's like we read 
in Col 1:27,  To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this 
mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Christ in us the 
hope, when someone sees Christ in us and the fruit of the Spirit, they will desire what 
we have, then as 1 Pet 3:15 tell us, "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be 
ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is 
in you with meekness and fear:"
What is written in your book, for in Luke 6:45 we read, "A good man out of the good 
treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil 
treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the 
heart his mouth speaketh. So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of 
God." (Rom 10:17) Our heart being filled with the word will win them.
Your servant for Jesus sake,
Steven Hall
