Telling Others the Gospel, Even When It's Difficult

Post by dlmarch

I've been "Born-Again" since 1982 and this is still the hardest part of my walk. To lead others to Christ. I've had many occasions where I've shared the Gospel but I fall short of asking others to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior. I need to have a prayer of acceptance in my heart but have never bothered to memorize one and feel I'll leave something important out of my prayer. I feel that I've been blessed to "plant a seed" but other will "water and bring about the fruit".
The message from Luis Palau was helpful in reminding me of my need to show more boldness during these occasions. My older brother died a few years ago and I never spoke of his need to personally know Jesus during his illness. I have had to ask our Lord to forgive me for my lack of courage.
I would have liked to see some examples of things prayed when leading someone to a relationship with Jesus. That would have been helpful for me.
Thank you,
David
