Talking to People

On Saturday, I was able to go to Illinois for a DARE2SHARE conference.  One of the things that we were supposed to do during the last break of the conference before the end was go to local public places and tell people about the grace of God.  You see, I am not very good at this kind of thing.  I don't want to make an uncomfortable situation for people.  I have always been the one who didn't want to force this kind of thing on people, and I always thought that if I was the one to start the conversation and try to get people to accept Jesus, then I was forcing it on them.  I never wanted to be that person.  This weekend, though, I tried something new.  Greg, the speaker talked about a very different way to talk to people about God and teach them about what Jesus did for them.  He explained a method where you ask, admire, and then admit.  I encourage definitely encourage everyone to go to dare2share.org and check out the videos.  And just so that everyone knows, no one is paying me to suggest them, I really do believe in what this organization is doing. 

I am quite a shy person, when it comes to people that I don't know, so I have a hard time talking to people, unless they start first.  I am usually fine if the other person starts the conversation, but if I am expected to, it becomes an issue.  This weekend, something changed in me.  God spoke to me and told me that I needed to talk to these people.  I don't know whether he was doing this to help me or to help them, or what, but if even part of it was for me, it worked.  I think that I can do this.  I can do this whole evangelism thing... I don't at all think that I will be the next Billy Graham, but maybe I can start planting some seeds.  I love God and I love people.  I want everyone to go to heaven, so I am going to help the people who don't believe and I am going to plant some seeds.

There is a problem

Hello!  There seems to be a problem with comments.  I don't know why this is, but for some reason, if anyone is trying to comment with an iphone, ipod, or an ipad, it probably won't work.  I tried to post a comment earlier with my ipod and my step dad tried to post a comment with his ipad, and neither worked!! I don't know why this is, but I will definitely be contacting google with this problem.  I am sorry for any inconveniences.  Please feel free to comment using any other device, if other mobile devices are not working, you may comment on here, using a computer or device that will work, telling me and others what it is and I will gladly contact google!

Thank you for your patience:)

A Post Just For My Viewers

I feel like there is not enough activity on my blog.  I would like to see some more commenters on here.  I decided that, in order to do this, I would post something that my blog viewers want to read.  Soooo.....
I would like all of you guys to tell me what you want me to write about.  Do you have unanswered questions, need advice, or even just need some cold, hard facts on something?  LET ME KNOW!!!! 

Comment on this with your idea, and as long as it is an ethical and appropriate topic, I will write about it... even if I need to do some research, you will find it up on my blog at some point before the end of the 2013 year... probably earlier though.  If I find it to be a topic that is ethically wrong or innappropriate, then I will let you know that I am not posting about that... Otherwise, expect to see it up on my blog!!!
