So what's wrong with me?

[winglovesall]

I am a bit shy and very quiet when I first meet someone new and you wouldn't know me from that - but once you listen the personality and the qualities that I have - then, people would like or inspired by me or respect me with praise (as some people would) - but it depends what your opinion are.

And when that happens - more and more people will come to me.

Been there, done that. It'll pass.

It is not a fear of embarrassment. It is just that I am extremely introverted, and prefer doing those things in private.

Unfortunately, often times, the extroverts just don't understand us

I am sure we can break the "not understanding" bit - because understanding takes a lot of time and long time. Being able to understand the other person could take you a long time. Outside, they would never understand you - and if you open about yourself and be open to who you are - I think - people will understand why you are "such and such" .

I hate reading the Bible. I hate praying. I hate going to Church and I hate singing for God. I just hate all of it really. I mean I would honestly rather stare at a wall than read the Bible. I try to force myself to read it, but I get so incredibly bored with it that I start drifting off and can't even pay attention and soak in what I'm reading.

I just don't get why I hate it all so much when other Christians seem to really get into it.

1. Talk to your pastor about this. S/He knows you better than we do, and can offer better advice.
2. Invest in a good Audio Bible. I'm not much of a reader, and audio Bibles are a Godsend for me.
