 I Felt the Nudge… and Stayed Silent 🙁 Q: How do you overcome the fear of approaching people to talk about the Lord or pray for them? Yesterday I had a small encounter at a McDonald’s play place that’s been sitting heavy on my heart. I was there alone with my daughter when a woman came in with her grandson.
