It’s so clear in Holy Scripture, yet for years I missed it because I was so focused on the process of outreach instead of the person of Christ. The best advice I can give any believer who has a real desire to share the Gospel of truth is to follow Jesus Christ. Love Him. Long to know Him. Walk with Him by faith, moment by moment. The result? You'll be a fisher of men.
Yeah, this is a good point brother. Having a burden to see souls saved is a byproduct of seeking Jesus, looking upon Jesus, and loving Jesus.

For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. (Romans 8:29 KJV)

Peace and Love,
Stephen
