One soul at a time

Andy Jackson at SmartChristian writes of Mother Theresa's ability to focus on one soul at a time:

Yes there were many of the sick, hungry and dieing around Calcutta, yet her energy was concentrated on the one soul created in the image of God she was ministering and interacting with. The many did not distract her from the one. As her eyes penetrated a single soul, the rest of the world seemed to disappear. Modern evangelicals seek after “crowds,” but Mother Theresa sought “one person” at a time.

That's a great reminder.
