I know exactly what you're saying. I can't get around the emotional "feelings" part with her. I know it sounds bad to say it, but it's the truth.
"But I must caution you, that it is not within our power to convert anyone. That job is solely the Holy Spirit's."
As for converting her, it's not my intent, I'm just trying to show her what and why I believe. But I do appreciate the warning. It'll help me stay on point.
"All we can do is stand and witness to what we believe."
Thanks for the reminder. I have to remember to just stay out of the emotional briar patch. I sure don't want to create a larger or insurmountable chasm in our relationship.
We'll see how it works out.
