because He loves you because He loves you because He loves you because He loves you because He loves you because He loves you because He loves you

please,
- build me bookshelves
- slow dance during thunderstorms
- sing me to sleep when i’m scared
- bring flowers home for no reason
- read scripture to me when i’m weary
- let me wear your shirts to sleep
- drive with the windows down in the summer
- pick berries with me in the shade
- end each day in prayer with me
- tell me how God is working in you
- bury me in blankets when i’m cold
- rub my back when my body aches
- give me the parts of your heart that Christ wants me to have entirely
- hold my hand wherever we go
- narrate muted movies we’ve never seen with me
- hug me for long, extended amounts of time
- look to Christ before you look to me

“They need approval from others to feel good about themselves. They are hurt by indifference and don’t understand unkindness. They are very giving people, who get a lot of their personal satisfaction from the happiness of others. They want to be appreciated for who they are, and what they give. They’re very sensitive to others, and freely give practical care.”
“Their dominant function demands structure and organization, and seeks closure. ESFJs are most comfortable with structured environments. They’re not likely to enjoy having to do things which involve abstract, theoretical concepts, or impersonal analysis. They do enjoy creating order and structure, and are very good at tasks which require these kinds of skills.”
strengths:
- Put forth a lot of effort to fulfill their duties and obligations
- Warm, friendly and affirming by nature
- Service-oriented, they want to please others
- Take their commitments very seriously, and seek lifelong relationships
- Responsible and practical, they can be counted to take care of day-to-day necessities
weaknesses:
- Generally uncomfortable with change, and moving into new territories
- Extreme dislike of conflict and criticism
- Need a lot of positive affirmation to feel good about themselves
- May be overly status-conscious, and interested in how others see them
- Have very difficult time accepting the end of a relationship, and are likely to take the blame for the failure onto their own shoulders
- Don’t pay enough attention to their own needs, and may be self-sacrificing
Under extreme stress, fatigue or illness, the ESFJ’s shadow may appear - a negative form of INTP. Example characteristics are:
- being very critical and finding fault with almost everything
- having a pessimistic view of the future
- suggesting ideas that are quite impractical
