Working in ministry

[justpassingthrough21]

I have two questions for everyone.
1. Do you who have obsessive doubts over Gods Word, feel like you can't be a witness for God? Maybe even feel like you are ashamed of the Gospel, even though you aren't?

2.Has anyone had those obsessive doubts and overcame them and was able to still be a witness for God.

I was wondering because I want to in my life do something for God, maybe missions or evangelism or something, but I can't see myself leading people to Christ, while I myself have doubts and anxiety running through my mind. I want to be solidified to a point to where I am do those things i've always wanted to do.

1. sometimes i feel like im ashamed even though im not , its hard when you want people to receieve it so bad that the thought of them not kind of paralyzes you. but we just have to go in thinking positive, and if they don't receive it as wed like them to pray , and keep moving knowing God is proud of us. sometimes we don't think people hear us but they do. a friend of mind reminded me that i said God never leads us wrong and that suprised me. even though he wasn't ready to go to church , something i said stuck with Him. that makes me happy. 2. every fouth sat we go to a convalescent to witness and sing praises. i used to have blashemous thoughts all through out the singing, about God, about the elders. i really felt bad , but i kept going. even though it was painful, God gave me the strength to go back. that showed me that He can use even me , in the midst of a battle and that made me happy. bro youre not alone. and the enemy will have you thinking youre a hypocrite because you witness but have the thoughts. but you know what, you make God proud and show Him through the storm, youre gonna do work in His name. and He delights in that, we give Him glory, He's right there with you don't forget that. Jesus loves you and is always with you. don't let fear paralyze you bro, ask Himt o give you the strength to press on and He will. (=

If you take yourself back to the disciples, they even walked with Jesus and were often told 'oh ye of little faith', they saw much eg the dead raised, blind to see, lame to walk etc.

Get yourself a decent book in theolgy, I am currently reading Wayne Grudems systematic theology. It helps you bring all Gods word into perspective, and has helped in my faith dramatically. Renew your mind reading Gods Word the bible, get stuck into it as this is the food for the mind.
