The whole story of the Bible is a love story between God and His people. He yearns for us. He cares. He has a tender heart. ↗

Because introverts are typically good listeners and, at least, have the appearance of calmness, we are attractive to emotionally needy people. Introverts, gratified that other people are initiating with them, can easily get caught in these exhausting and unsatisfying relationships. ↗
