Any church would be glad to have a soul winner like you. Keep up the good work. I agree with "Go". They don't always come to us but He commanded us to go to them. I am not a good "goer", my fault, not God's. My husband can talk to anyone but I am more reserved and don't normally strike up a conversation with strangers but people maybe going to Hell because I don't.

Hi,
I admire that you can confess your weaknesses. Many are too much of a coward to confess anything and rather make excuses instead. You admitted that you're a reserved person, and perhaps that's been your downfall.
You want to know something? Many years ago I was at the grocery store and saw this elderly lady walking in front of the store. For some reason I just stood there and watched her, and I really can't explain what I felt when watching her.
As I drove away from the parking lot, I thought about how I might have been the only opportunity for that elderly lady to be saved, and yet I blew it. That situation weighed on me for a while. (sigh)
I'm also a reserved person and know exactly how you feel. Sometimes we must step out of out comfort zone no matter how odd it feels. As we continue doing that, the odd feeling will begin to fade away.
Blessings to you.
