lead by example...prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
By being a living example and giving positive guidance, it actually may make a difference.
good luck to you and remember....we all must walk our own spiritual path, nobody else can do it for us...
blessings..i hope you find what it is you seek.

What CAN you do. You are your own person as your family is. The only thing you can do is hope to God that they can grow with you. You see, families grow apart so easily especially when people divert due to beliefs that they may have certain opinions on. But what you need to remeber is,"You have one family, only one, there is no substituting back and forth, you can't replace your family. Sticking with you family, is what MAKES it a family."

Pray.....only the Lord can convict the heart of a non believer. Just pray for your family, continue to go to Church and be around other believers in Christ. Just worship and love God, live his word and your family will notice the changes in you and some will be hungry for the same cup of life from which you drink. God Bless you during this spritually trying time.

All you have to do is leave it in the hands of the lord. He'll will help them. Just trust him wholeheartedly and keep praying for your family.
be persistent in prayer. i myself am in the same boat, i pray and knowing that the Lord will save them like he did me. Don't worry even when things aren't lookin to good, just always be in constant prayer with him and let him know how your feeling day to day. Always trust in him and have in faith that he will answer you. it helps so much having not to worry about things, always knowing That the Lord will be with you and keep you safe. 1 Peter 5:6-7 if you will humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, in his good time he will lift you up.Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you. Mathew 5:14-15 You are the worlds LIGHT, a city on a hill, glowing in the night for all to see.Don't hide your light! Let it SHINE for all; For your good deeds glow for all to see, So that they will PRAISE YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER. Cling to the LORD!!!!! He will answer, just don't doubt him!

Good question, you see you cannot control people but you can only positively influence them. Stay happy and dont make it a problem. It should come naturally to them or if you really want to help then seek more knowledge and help them with kindest of words. Salam!

Be an example of Christ. Walk your talk. Don't shove or be pushy w/ your beliefs. Don't be holier than thou but be humble and accepting just as Christ was. Actions speak louder than words (you'll be amazed)
