I live for human connection. So do you. Paul also longed for depth in his relationships with those he loved. His life was an open book. He gave the gift of himself. “Withholding... affection” was not a part of Paul’s missionary game plan. He “opened wide” his heart to the people Jesus called him to serve.
“We... opened wide our hearts to you. We are not withholding our affection from you... open wide your hearts also,” (2nd Corinthians 6.11-13).
