Why Oh Why

Why oh why do I have this fear? I haven't been out in a long time.

The Lord wants us to seek and save that which is lost. I know what I am suposed to do. But doing it is a different story.

I feel for those who are on there way to Hell and do not know it. I also am extremely saddened for those who are going to Hell on there own choice of not believing in the gracious Saviour Jesus Christ.

Whenever i go to hand out a tract I freeze. I have fought through the fear but it is so hard. I pray before I go and I ask the Lord to give me His strength. For When I am weak then I am strong.

I have been told that this is a sense of pride. It is a pride issue caused by wanting people to like me and not to reject me. But I know that they will hate me cause they first hated Him.

I also know that I am as much a wretch as those I am wanting to share Jesus with. I am no better then anyone. I am just better off.

My tongue also freezes and even when I manage to accually break that fear and accualy witness to a person. I stutter and my mind goes completely blank.

I'm supposed to be motivated by love and I thought I was. But I read that perfect love casts out all fear.

I pray for the strength and the time to go witnessing to the Lost world.

If you have the same problems please send a comment maybe we can encourage each other.

Love in Christ Jesus
