Riding the Fence.
Do you ever find yourself riding the fence with someone or a group of people. Maybe you stand for God with your friends but not with your work friends. Are you afraid if you bring up Jesus with this person that doesn't believe it will hurt your relationship. But the hardest sometime is your family. They may think you are preaching or a hypocrite. Someone may think you think you are better than them. Are you thinking you don't know what to say?
You can start by telling them of the love of Jesus for sinners. That He came for you. Then you might share what Jesus is doing in your life. Have someone pray for you while you are sharing. Pray yourself and for their hearts to be open.
You can be the most eloquent person but it is the Spirit who has to work in order for someone to believe and trust Christ with their life. Ask for forgiveness. Have eyes to see and ears to hear.
Lets get off the fence. We can live whole hearted for Christ.
