What Introverts Do Best

October 8, 2018 By Lifestyle Prayers 6 Comments

Filed Under: Introverts Tagged With: introverts, What Introverts Do Best

I am an introvert, and I enjoy spending time alone, especially after a busy day.

Mind you, 18 years of marriage has changed me, thanks to my wife, because my wife is a natural extrovert, and I am still learning from her about the nuances of human interactions.

However, I still think that introverts have an advantage over extroverts since I think spending time alone, is what they do best.

I don’t have any external data to back this up, but I would be interested in hearing your opinion. Do you agree, or do you see things radically different?

Prayer:

Lord Jesus,

Thank you for the ways you have designed us to be, especially when it comes time to spending time alone, and even for discussing questions that may seem frivolous. Amen.

    I am also an introvert. My role in ministry has forced me to go outside myself. At the end of the day, I would much rather hide out at home and enjoy some quiet.

    Thanks, David! I used to be a bit ashamed and embarrassed about being an introvert until a college professor explained it as a matter of individual physiology. I also married an extrovert and we complement each other well.

      I amazed how God works in our lives to bring out the best within us. Thank you for your comment, Tom!

    What amazes me is that introverts like myself tend to marry extroverts like my husband, a natural adventurer. Holidays are great and when traveling, I see more places and events than I would if I were alone. He makes me want to leave the house, so I let him have “Dougie Days,” in which he can go play alone. He loves it, and when traveling, I just pray that God will have His angels encamp around him to deliver him.
