Fear of the unknown or the known distorted form , makes the clearance situations that do not feel able to handle the lack of previous experiences and the changes in a person who lets God into your life , always cause human fear in those around you. Added to this is the passion that this creates is that we want everyone to feel the same , but we must consider that our family has not made ​​the same decision in some cases.

The first impression people get about Christianity is to us, if we are very insistent we can attack in any way to those who are not yet ready to receive the gospel and to lead to a complete rejection of God , even the same person who just has started a life in Christ , you may be discouraged to see that others do not follow .

" So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything , but God who gives the increase. "
1 Corinthians 3:7

It is good to understand that God has a personal relationship with each person and a time for everything, is not in our hands to decide for Him Pressuring someone to accept Christ is to risk to do so carried away by their emotions and not by real conviction . Everyone should have a personal experience with Christ does not force others to live theirs.

The new believer must work on the relationship with God so that this will strengthen and mature spiritually. Daily Bible reading and prayer will exercise patience , love , self-control , faith and transmit to others the peace of God. Pray for God to prepare the hearts of those around you to get it . Remember that He alone is the one who does the work in humans through the Holy Spirit. Our only duty is to bring the Word and the work ends deconversion .

Strengthen your family relationship with mutual respect, this will prepare the ground for sowing the seed of the Gospel. When you win a life for Christ , it is normal to have all opposition , as they entered a war against spiritual hosts of wickedness is why our weapons must be also spiritual . We should not think that our human arguments are going to be the best , or that things will go as we want at the time that we want. One must learn to wait in faith for God to work according to His will in the lives of our loved ones.

Happy and blessed start to the week !
 
In my experience praying for those around you work,I have seen it happen miracles within seconds,even thousands of miles away,we have this strength let's use it!
 
That was well said speech...
God Bless:)

Thanks for sharing..
 
Sure! "Everyone should have a personal experience with Christ does not force others to live theirs."

That´s proselitism and sometimes religion.

The whole bulk applies for our personal relationship because we don´t know -very well- how to be approached or known.

Thanks for sharing this!
 
" it is normal to have all opposition "

I would call it the everyday abnormallity! Je! Je! (just to show what we call it oposition, which also could be another way to perceive things). ;)

We say "I want to be loved", but we want it "OUR WAYS" in "our limited and narrowed conditions" and Christianity gives us the cahnce to sort that out jus by being His disciples.

That´t God. s miracle we came before Him. :)
