There is nothing, and I mean really nothing awkward with this spot. Far from it - it is wonderful!! You have four limpers, you´re out of position, you have a medium-small pocket pair. Your only target here is to call and hit a 7. Otherwise (in nearly any case!) you´re done with the hand on the flop. Consider how much better this is than a 5x-raise from the Button. 
Never - really never raise here because you won´t win the pot preflop and you don´t want to build a pot - with just 8% chance to flop the hand you want.
