Myers-Briggs Personality Profile

Hubby is teaching a class at church about spiritual gifts. Part of the process of finding our place in the body of Christ can include taking a personality inventory test. I love these tests. You can take one for free if you're interested on www.keirsey.com. Once you get your profile, you can see more information on www.personalitypage.com. So the interesting thing is that I took this test when I first got married, and I took it again tonight. My personality has changed somewhat. I guess this shouldn't be a surprise. After all, I've gone from working in an office to being a mom, from working with grownups all the time to working with kids, and from being a newlywed to being a seasoned wife (no, hag is not the word I'm looking for). The thing that makes me sad is that I've gone from being intuitive to being sensing. This is the part that has to do with how I take in information. Do we trust our five senses (Sensing) to take in information, or do we rely on our instincts (iNtuitive)? Maybe it's because I've lived in the Show-Me state for the last 9 years. I don't believe anything unless you show me. I'm very practical and down-to-earth. I don't really want to know about something if it's only a theory. I want solid proof. The parallel to this is how low I scored on the spiritual gift of "faith." It's not that I don't have faith. It defines who I am. But I have a very hard time understanding or trusting God for the supernatural. I want a scientific answer for everything. I am struggling with this, but at the same time I understand that everyone has different gifts. That's the whole point of a body. If every body part were an eye or ear, it wouldn't function as intended. You get the idea. I just don't want to discourage those who do have that gift. In case you're wondering, my spiritual gifts seem to be teaching, hospitality, knowledge, and wisdom. I'm still figuring what this looks like to use these gifts in the church, but it's fun to interact with others and see how God has designed us so uniquely and how we all function together to build the Kingdom of God.
