Prayer for evangelistic home visiting

[SnEptUne]

Hi all,

I am going to visit my aunt place this evening to preach the Good News to her. However, I am not feeling very well today, so my partner will probably be doing more talking. Please pray for me that we will have the wisdom and the kindness to do work according to God's will.

I don't visit my aunt much, I don't think she is offended when I called her for a visit. But she doesn't seem very enthusiastic, which worry me.

My best friend preached Christ to me. I didn't come to Christ because of her- her preaching drove me away from it. There's a time and a place to do it, and when she chose and attempted to do it were all wrong. It was forced, and though she meant it enthusiastically, it wasn't her place to do it.

Pray that you're actually doing the right thing. It could be that in talking about it repeatedly when she's not interested is doing more harm than good. Especially when she might just want a visit from you- not an evangelistic mission.

Thanks Atria35. I don't know if it is the right thing because I didn't have much chance to talk to her. But it is true that I need to visit her because there are some problems in her family. I hope I will be a good enough person to share her burden.

Praying for u...it's never wrong to share the Truth...

Remember, even though we share the Truth, God's the one that saves...

Remember, speak the Truth in love. Praying the love comes out. Once she senses that, no matter what it is you talk about, she'll begin to respond.

Thanks everyone.

I believe the visit goes well. It turns out my aunt had gone to church before, it is just that she haven't been able to make it on Sunday because of the nature of her job. We went to clarify the doctrine of Christianity and how sometimes we need to sacrifice to put God in top priority; but in my opinion, there is only a thin line between faith and reason.
