    Arrow Are YOU telling people about Jesus?

    I just was intrested in how many of us are telling people about Jesus when the opportunity occurs?

    I have not been sharing about Jesus at all and I feel guilty about that...I mean how selfish of me to not share Jesus with ppl who need to hear about him!!! I am praying for more and more opportunities and boldness to share Jesus...how about you?

    What holds you back? How can we overcome our fears?

    For some reason I have a fear of what ppl will think about me if I tell them about Jesus...which is kinda odd because I am not really a shy person. This shyness about Jesus must be something the enemy has planted in me but there is no doubt I am going to get my shovel and up root that fear a.s.a.p. The world needs to hear about Jesus!!

    Care to share??...together we can become stronger and better witnesses!!

    If you are witnessing share how God has worked!

    Very powerful question. One that I have been pondering these last few weeks. Right now with the economy the way it is, many Christians(including myself) are focusing on just getting by and how they are going to pay the bills. It is so easy to get off target.

    Thanks for posting and I hope people take your question to heart.

    I'm not afraid of what anybody will think of me. My problem is my sin, I feel like I can't be a good witness when my sin is out there, but i'm working on it and I'll still preach a little anyways. Hopefully I can reach out because my sins are out there,(i'm honest with everybody, i'm no better than anybody).....if that makes sense. Maybe if people can see my struggle, that will attract people, ya know what I mean. I'm not perfect and God still loves me and he will still work on me. Alot of people think that christians think that they are better than everybody else. If I can relate to other people(non-believers), than maybe I can reach more people effectevly.......(sorry about my spelling lol).....but you know what i mean.
    I have made accomplishments in my walk so I try to focus on that, And tell them about it!
    People tend to think that they are just going to hell anyway, so why bother.....they think it's too late. We do have alot to do here....it is our duty to save souls.

    I tell people about what the Lord Jesus has done for me every chance I get. I don't let my personal flaws get in the way because I have come such a long way since he began dealing with me. I'm like, "well you should have seen me THEN!"
    Lord,one thing I ask...use me for your glory.

    That same thought has been ringing in my mind also! So many ppl are caught up in this economy and jobs being lost.. but if we have given our lives to Jesus I trust should be in him 100% although everything around us is failing and falling apart our absolute trust should be in Jesus Christ.

    He PROMISED to supply ALL our needs

    A special thanks to everyone for sharing...Jesus is very soon to come this scripture keeps ringing in my ears and ofcourse I dont know where it is...but it says something along the lines .......when your not expecting Jesus to return that is when he will come back.

    For some reason I want to say thats not the one but after searching it must be...lol

    I have heard some say that this scipture only refers to the unsaved.....I disagree I think it applies to us all. If we are all caught up in this world our finances, jobs, kids, house, pets whatever we have in our life that we put before God if he comes back and we are caught with our houses out of order.... God Forbid!

    So we must keep God the head of EVERY situation although it is tough.

    1 Thessalonians 5
    The Day of the Lord
    1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3 For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. 4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. 6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober
    "People do not drift toward holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; We drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; We drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated?" - D A Carson

    I have 2 t-shirts, one has a picture, and the other one says property of Jesus on it. Shirts are cool. It's hard to witness, people don't want to hear about Jesus. People just care about their life in a box, and all the toys that technology has made and their text messages on their cell phones and their favorite tv show and blah, blah, blah

    Its true people dont want to hear about Jesus...some didn't want to hear about him in his day either but nevertheless we have a job to do. If your co-worker who disliked you didnt want you to show up at work but you knew you had to be there you would still show up wouldnt you? I know I would....Samething here
