All of us have people we care about and long for them to know God. So what’s the best way to pray for them? It’s so easy to give up. We may start out with high hopes that a family member or friend will soon receive Jesus but as time passes those expectations weaken and may even die. We’ve prayed and tried to share our faith, but all our attempts have been rebuffed repeatedly. The fact is some people are really… well, let’s say it….. slow to believe. They actually seem determined to refuse the gospel and may even grow defensive and angry at the slightest mention of Jesus. And that’s when the danger arises: we too become defensive and angry and decide we don’t care anymore. But that’s not God’s way at all!
