Our job is to plant seeds, Trust God, Study the Word of God daily, and this will armor us up for the oncoming attacks of the devil, which are definitely on the way. We should not force ourselves nor our convictions on another in that systematic manner in which we know we are competent.
Something that I practice doing is being in an attitude of prayer continually. As Christians, I believe that our joy and excitement should be oozing out of us at all times. We should be praying in the good times as well as in the not so good. In the scripture verse: 1Thessalonians 5:17, which states, " Pray without ceasing." Think about it: how does this speak to your heart? Let me give you an assist, ideal circumstances, while others present themselves as evil are always going to happen as long as we live. Either or, we should be praying or at least being in an attitude of prayer. When you're at work, school, or in any public forum, everything that we do should be like serving our Lord and God.
For me, I still think to this day, " What would Jesus do? " Everything that we do should be as unto the Lord Jesus Christ, and I can't express this enough. I find that my Adamic nature fights to raise its ugly side, and I have to ask for forgiveness. So I must go through my day being intentional about Praying Without Ceasing, with the Lord as my guide. Do you also find that good and evil are warring against each other? I've even heard it put like this, the good angel is on the left shoulder, and the bad is on the right.
I have talked with hundreds of Christians in the past 38 years since my conversion from Catholicism to becoming a Born Again Believer, and all of us must make daily, hourly, no moment by moment conscious decisions on how to address a thought or action.
So when it comes time for me to share my faith, my experience, my witness with a total stranger, I'm ready.
Get your mind(s) right, do it even if you are nervous or just plain scared, please remember that Our Father said that He would never leave us nor forsake us. I'm keenly aware that we should Prove and or Test him? If you have studied your Bible, you are aware of multiple times that the Father was there on time. Yes, He's an " On Time God. "
So while on earth, we have no idea of how effective our drizzle like witness will be. Once again, when the Holy Spirit speaks to you, go afraid and or scare but go and share your heart.

I love the alluding to (remember this is my interpretation as we discuss it over a coffee) joy of our Salvation not showing on our faces. I often wonder why fellow Christians don’t shine more- myself included.
May the drizzle become a deluge
