“…remember this:  whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a  multitude of sins.”

I feel this one deeply.  Someone I care very much about was hurt in a very bad way about 20 years ago.  From that, my friend chose to walk away from the Lord and has continued to go down a path of ever-increasing sinfulness.  This person’s hurt still affects how they interact with others, of whom I have been the recipient.  If someone could have intervened during that time 20 years ago, I truly believe that my friend could be saved from a life of death and sin that they now live.  I continue to pray for them, hoping that my prayers will “avail much.”   And meanwhile, while I cannot go back in time for this person’s situation, perhaps I can help in the life of someone else’s friend, brother, family, etc…
