"Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in the city"
Acts 18:9-10
This is a good reminder that God asks us to do things for a reason. There are people to find, and God will lead us to them if we are willing to do as he asks... trading perhaps a little bit of embarrassment against the chance of finding and helping someone who needs the gospel. The tradeoff is different in different cases, but it's often a case of personal comfort vs being where God wants us to be, so that we can help someone else. Let's do our best to be trustworthy and unafraid of any hardships that come as a consequence of doing as God asks.
