Ok, I'm supposed to be working. . . but I took a few minutes and did the questionnaire. My spiritual gift came out as Faith, with Intercession the next highest. Pretty neat website. Thanks for sharing!<P>

Thanks mercy for providing the link. I have done something similar before once at a retreat. I know encouragement was a strong one at that time and I forget what else. I must have the results someplace.<BR>Well my highest was faith also AW. Followed by a tie between mercy, encouragement and shepherding. interesting. I'm not so sure about the shepherding. What does mercy mean as a spiritual gift?<P>Thanks mercy

hw - it is really evident that your spiritual gift is faith. I cannot think of another person who shows as much faith as you. You have steadfastly stood for your husband and marriage, and focus your eyes and heart completely on the Lord, always waiting in faith upon Him. Your faith is truly a blessing to all of us. I am so thankful you share your faith with us. <P>Maybe God is using you and your immense faith in restoration of your marriage to his glory as an example of how faith in Him will bring victory. One day your testimony will enlighten many as to the power of our almighty God. Thank you hw for your unwaivering faith, and sharing so freely with us.<BR>

The shameful part is I hadn't looked up mercy yet. I had been meaning to. my husband told me he wasn't surprised either, anyhow, i knew but i didn't if that makes sense ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif) <P>Mercy <BR>The ability to cheerfully and practically help those who are suffering or are in need, compassion moved to action. People with this gift- focus upon alleviating the sources of pain or discomfort in suffering people; address the needs of the lonely and forgotten; express love, grace, and dignity to those facing hardships and crisis; serve in difficult or unsightly circumstances and do so cheerfully; concern themselves with individual or social issues that oppress people. <P>Ministry Area <BR>Counseling<BR>Evangelism<BR>Office Support<BR>Youth <BR>

This is a very interesting web site. I haven't taken a spiritual gifts survey since before my h's affair. It would seem that God has been doing some new things in my life! <P>I have known for a long time that God has given me the gift of teaching but I am seeing through this survery some development of new gifts!<P>Somehow I knew things were changing in my heart but this survey confirms it.<P>God is so good. He is at work through all of our trials to make us more like His Son.<P>Thanks Mercy for the new insight!<P>Blessings, Taj
