“To convert somebody go and take them
by the hand and guide them.” -Saint
Thomas Aquinas
Every one of us living in our houses we have one or
sometime more people who are not in prayers. It is very hard to live with
someone who is not in prayers because they are unpredictable.
If one of us in the family is in prayer then it
will our duty to guide them to prayer but with love and patience.
It requires lots of patience to convert someone’s
soul; it involves hard work, patience and calmness. Many a times when we say to
them to pray it looks good for us thinking we are doing well but to them it may
be annoying or irritating.
That’s why before even talking to the person we
have to first keep that person in our prayers sometimes for days, sometimes for
months and sometimes for years depending on how far that person has walked away
from God.
After keeping that person for a certain time then
we have to find opportunity either talking to them directly or make them talk
to God’s chosen ones so that they may understand and change for good.
We have to hold their hand means we have to be with
them spiritually whenever they need our assistance, we also have to watch their
progress and continuously pray for them which will not only change their life
but also bring us great reward.
When we guide one soul towards conversion, we are
helping God to build His kingdom on earth. We all cannot talk about God
initially because we are not confident but we can always connect the needy to
the chosen ones of God which will bring us great blessings.
God is very much interested in saving every soul on
this earth but problem God has is He never finds enough people who will go and
do what He says. If we are called by God then let us take seriously His call so
that He may choose us and send us to the people He knows who needs our
guidance.
