Guiding a new believer who is fearful & doesn't want to share Christ

Q:. I have a friend whom recently found Jesus. I couldn’t have been more happy for this friend and I showed so much support.  Well I asked her if they wanted to attend a gathering with other Christians whom were going to share Jesus. She didn’t want to go because she felt unsafe about “nonbelievers” because they’re unpredictable in their behaviors. It really bothered me so I didn’t really engage with her for a couple of days.  I come across a video discussing how important it is for Christians to share their faith especially with nonbelievers to help bring them to Christ. So I shared it with her and her response was “nice” but then admitted she didn’t watch it because she "doesn’t watch stuff like that" or to some effect. But then she says if it’s short, she’ll watch it. The video isn’t more than 20 mins long. Again, I was really bothered by her response. So I kind of snapped, in a sense?

A friend visited and rejected the Bible I gave her

While here we went shopping I bought her a bible & she told me not to spend the money.  But it was on my heart to so I did !  After they left the next day, while cleaning the room they stayed in, I noticed they grabbed everything BUT the Bible. They had left in the bottom of a laundry basket. I reached out to her and she said she forgot it.  I truly don’t see how u can forget something like that, and to put it at the bottom hidden, is just wrong to me. Am I over thinking or do you think she didn’t want it.  Q: She had the opportunity to have what God wanted her to know and she rejected it. She doesn't want to know what's in it, and as with everyone, her conscience already convicts "of their sins and they know theyre accountable to God." Itvis obvious she hid it there on purpose hoping you wouldn't see it for a very long time.  Living in a nation...
