Hi Brandon, I do understand where you are coming from. Well, I
do in my head. (Grin). I can't say that daily, all the time
that my relationship with God is authentic, life does get in the
way, if you know what I mean. The thing that I've learned is
that all I can do is share my faith. If by sharing my faith
someone decides to begin to have a relationship with Jesus, then
wow, I'm blessed and happy. But I can only share my own heart,
my own experiences.
This may shock you, but when people use Scripture I feel
frustrated. If someone does not believe that the Bible is true,
then they are not going to be persuaded by it. I have read about
people who went through the process of researching the Bible to
disprove it and who have become Christians. But to use the Bible
as a hammer only alienates people. Once someone says to me, I
want to know more about Jesus, then I can share with them
Scripture.
Brandon, I believe that if you live your life sincerely seeking,
God will find you. Other then that, I can only share my faith
life, and let it go at that. I do not mean by let it go that I
am disinterested, I just know that pounding at you to say the
"right words" or whatever is pointless. So I care about you as a
person, and share my life. If I ever offend you, it's never my
intent. blessings, Debby and Neena
