ISFP - Responsive in Fellowship.

You recognize immediate needs and join readily with fellow believers in doing good. You probably don’t talk about your feelings much except with your closest friends, but you’re driven to action by inner values, preferring to let actions speak for themselves. You often hesitate to initiate action but appreciate being asked. When someone asks for your help you respond today with little thought to how you may be inconvenienced tomorrow. If possible, you’ll bring a close friend with you to help in the work and share in the blessing. You prefer small, intimate group activities to joining a large crowd. Once you’re involved, you enjoy working at a relaxed pace, focused on the task at hand and the people closest to you. Occasionally you enjoy the sense of urgency and heightened activity level of rushing to complete a project as the deadline approaches. Your nature compels you to devotion to friends and family members, even when they regularly disappoint or frustrate you. You’ll keep negative feelings to yourself unless they reach a certain threshold where you’ll vent them with a startling forcefulness. You may have learned (after hurting others in the past) to control this venting, letting the steam out gradually and steadily instead.

Guiding Scriptures: 1 Peter 3:8 and 1 John 3:16–19

“Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble.”

16This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. 17If anyone … sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? 18Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. 19This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence.”
