why I don't share the gospel

it's not because I don't believe it's true.  I do.

it's not because I'm not sure.  I am.

it's not because I don't think it would bless every life.  it would.


it's because it teaches so many things that I fail at.
it's because I'd rather share the gospel when I've got those things sorted out. 
and that hasn't happened yet.

it's sort-of like not wanting to give you a present I haven't had time to wrap.
or not wanting you to arrive before I've finished cleaning the house.

I feel that when I hand you the gospel, all you'll see is the package I wrap it in with my life, and you'll miss the perfect gift that is inside.


why don't you let someone else give it to you instead?  mormon.org.
