    Even though Jeremiah got discouraged he still stayed the course and saw it through to the end. One of the main obstacles I face is being a female and discounted more often than not, but I overcome this challenge by continuing to spread the Good News to all who will listen.

    Jeremiah was called to preach or proclaim the Word of God to a people who had terribly rebelled against God. They were so deeply hardened in their sin, yet he continued his faithfulness and loyalty to the Lord by preaching His Word. He faced such hatred and opposition by the people as well as false prophets who professed that they believe in God. They claimed to speak the Word of God, but instead they give their own opinions. (Jeremiah 23:21-22)

    In my own experience , the obstacles to witnessing for Christ I face, is first of all ; everyone claims they know God, they believe in God. This seems to be good at first, but once I say the name of Jesus it is a different story. This is very disturbing to me . I began over coming it by not mentioning Jesus ‘name right away as I was told by one of the leaders in our church. So whenever I tried it there was no mentioning of Jesus name until the end of my witnessing.

    Another , obstacle was, people seemed to be pre-occupied with many things that they do not have time to listen or stop to accept a tract that is being pass to them. My husband taught me to go to the store and put tracts in the shoeboxes in the shoe section. When people open the box they find a tract.

    I believe that though there may be many obstacles to witnessing , we should never stop doing it. We should be about the Kingdom. God will lead us .
