A young plant should always protect itself by a fence from the mischief of goats and cows and little urchins. But when once it becomes a big tree, a flock of goats or a herd of cows may find shelter under its spreading boughs, and fill their stomachs with its leaves. So when you have but little faith within you, you should protect it from the evil influences of bad company and wordliness. But when once you grow strong in faith, no worldliness or evil inclination will dare approach your holy presence, and many who are wicked will become godly through your holy contact...
I know how the I feels. I had to go through it I self, just hold to your faith and as you grow in the wisdom and knowledge of this faith, then merely by observing you, they may begin to overstand.
