On several different occasions I’ve taken the Myers-Briggs test. The results always show that I am an INFJ personality type. One of the strengths of an INFJ is that I am empathetic, I can feel and enter into the pain that others are going through. One of my weaknesses is that I am sensitive. I can be easily wounded and offended.
Insights into ourselves can be helpful, but, when stubbornly held onto they may become harmful. I'm sure you've heard yourself or someone else say, “that’s just the way I am!”
Unfortunately, this can be said with a tinge of stubbornness and pride and an unwillingness to change. (Join me for the rest of this post on Sunday, March 7th at Woman to Woman Ministries, where each Sunday I share a bit of Sunday Soul Food!)
still following,
"I trust that God’s intention isn’t to make me into someone He never created me to be, but to make me the best me I can be, with a personality that He can shine through." Amen! Praying He takes over my personality each and every day, and shines through. May they see more of Jesus and less of me each day!
ReplyDeleteThat is my prayer as well!
