So I've always felt that I do not follow God well enough, and when I started going back to church about 1.5 years ago (raised Christian, stopped attending but not believing after high school) I've really been trying to make God more a part of my life and following Him and what he wants us to do. The thing I have realized now is that the most important thing overall, as a Christ follower, is to love people, reach out and help them, and help them find Jesus. Every sunday I really think about how I could apply the things God says to my life and it just keeps coming up - help people.
But I freaking suck with people. I've had social anxiety since I was really young and even left public high school because of it. I haven't been able to make any friends at bible study even after a while, and the only people I see are my coworkers (who I can't seem to hold a single convo with) my fiance and his friends (who do like me, but are only friends with me out of association, if we broke up they'd never talk to me again). I literally have no idea how someone like me could help anyone come to God or "love my neighbor", I can't even talk or connect to people.
So how is someone like me supposed to really follow God and help others when I suck with people?
