I know what you mean about wanting to tell your friends about Jesus... I have the same issue and I especially would like my Dad to be saved.
I feel that praying and asking God for oppertunities for you to speak about him may help. I ask God for just a 'how was your weekend?' question just so that I can tell them I went to church on Sunday. Even that is sowing a seed in your friends, and you just need to let God do the rest. Keep praying
My I give you some help here?
For many years I used the Roman Road to salvation and still do when appropreate. But in every situation you have to ask a question to start. Many soul winners have used this phrase..............................................
"IF YOU DIED TONIGHT WOULD YOU GO TO HEAVEN"?
That tends to put the lost person on the defensive and I would not advise that. To keep their attention open with a simple, innocent not intrusive question.
The one I like to use is..........."In your opinion, what do you think it takes for a person to go to heaven"?
I would say that the answer will be in 8 out of 10 times......."I am a GOOD person".
The door to conversaton is now open. You should then say to the lost person, May I tell you what the Bible says about this? --------- IT TAKES ..........."FAITH".
Hold up your hand with ONE finger up and say the letter "F".
Explain that the letter "F" stands for FORGIVNESS of sins as told to us in Ephesians 1:7
Then put up a second finger and announce the letter "A". You now have two fingers you are holding up. F & A. Announce that the letter "A" stands for AVAILABLE only from God as found in John 3:16.
With those two fingers up, put up a third finger and say, ""I". You now have F-A-I. The letter "I" stands for impossible. It is IMPOSSIBLE for any sin to enter into Heaven and the Bible tells us that in Romans 3:23.
Now to the fouth finger and announce that it stands for the letter "T". We must TURN from our sin and to Christ as found in Romans 10:19.
Then lastly, put up your thumb and announce that it stands for the letter "H" as found in the word HEAVEN in John 14:3.
You have now spelled the word FAITH and given an explination of each letter and it will take you no more than 3-5 minutes to do this.
Now is the time when you have spelled out the word FAITH on your hand to look the person in the eye and say .........
"Having heard what the Bible says about how we can get to heaven, would like to receive the Lord Jesus as your personal Savior".
FAITH....
Forsaking
All
I Trust
Him.
If they say no. Then ask to pray for them.
If they say yes. Then ask them to repeat the sinners prayer with you.
If they say NO....you can be confident that you have planted some seeds of thinking in them.
