WAKING PEOPLE: I've been dropping gentle hints to my family members and yep, they all think I'm nuts. I can take it and I decided I'm not giving up. Yesterday I prayed for my brother to open his mind, at least to talking with me. Today he called. We spoke for an hour. In the end we seem to be on the same page. Yes, something is happening and yes, we should pray and while we reassure them, we should encourage our family members to pray. He said something to me, "God cares about those who aren't yet following Him." So we're praying hard for everyone.
It's not easy waking people up. Sometimes you can a bit - sometimes it's best for yourself to leave it and just tell them that you will try to answer their questions later if they have any.
