Romans 2:4 Or do you despise the riches of His goodness, forbearance, and longsuffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance? (NKJV)

       "Knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?"

     Many people want their loved ones to know about the Lord.  I have met people that have been turned off by the gospel because of the tactics employed by their family and friends of always scolding them and pushing change on them.  Sometimes I have walked in to patience lives and when I see they are turned off I start bringing them small things to their liking, such as a milkshake, candy bar, or just the presence of being there listening.   When you bless people with the goodness of the Lord and reminding them that God loves them, they start to see that you really care and your willing just to be there despite their short comings.  In seeing this I have also witness patience's start to open up and accepting Christ as their savior and in some cases they had a chance to witness to their family about the love of Christ.  Loving and showing the goodness of God's love and not being demanding and pushy goes a lot further in spreading the gospel.   Many Blessing to you
