God is so faithful to remind us to quit being so critical of ourselves and others.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure that there's a difference between 'personality quirks' and 'character quality'. How would you define them? Personality may be such as 'quiet' while character strength may be 'faithful'. It's so important to me to learn the difference so I can pray for God to change others' character flaws, and yet realize that personality 'flaws' such as I see them are no big deal, and I should appreciate each person no matter how 'unique' they may be ;)<br /><br />Caity - I sometimes wonder if I would be loyal to the death... the problem is I will never know unless death stares me in the face like the Christian martyrs you read about.<br /><br />David - I totally agree with your best. How do you define 'quiet'?<br /><br />Karen - wow. You hit it right on when you say the Holy Spirit's working is, in essence, our only 'righteousness' Thanks for the reminder.<br /><br />I love the piano version of the Holberg Suite! I'll check out that one and the Fantasy Pieces by Rachmaninoff, thank you <3<br /><br />Theresa, that is so sweet of you to say so - but 'honest' is probably a better word to describe me, because I will tell you that pride IS a huge issue I deal with every day. Pride is the most deceitful sin out there, and just when I don't think I'm struggling with it, God deals with me sharply.<br /><br />Megan - your character qualities are wonderful; cheerfulness is such a blessing to your home right now, and your future home someday! And there is hope for shyness :)<br /><br />My brother and sisters in Christ, I appreciate your willingness to share in your struggles and triumphs.<br /><br />"further up and further in..." - C. S.

I've got the hot irish temper alright.<br />If not, then it's shyness. I'm very shy. Been that way all my life. I can't help it. :(<br /><br />My best is probably helpfulness or cheerfulness.<br /><br />Funny thing, I can think of my worst right off, but for my best I have to really think on it. :P<br /><br /> ~MeganKing's childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02667986668549741423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049003597730476556.post-23242940462059024362009-06-07T16:33:00.938-07:002009-06-07T16:33:00.938-07:00Just for the record, Emily, I don't think you ...Just for the record, Emily, I don't think you come off as proud AT ALL. Maybe that's just my opinion, but really.

Mom says that it's been a problem ever since I was small, and I'm still dealing with 'tudes!<br /><br />Best: Any righteousness in my person is a result of God's work in my life, no lie! This might sound cheesy, but having the Holy Spirit working in my life is the best thing I can think of! <br /><br />Piano music: Greig and Rachmaninoff are great aspirations! My two favorite Grieg pieces so far are Wedding At Trollhaugen (not too hard, very fun), and the Holberg Suite. The Holberg Suite was written in two versions by Grieg, one for orchestra, one for solo piano. I personally think it sounds best with orchestra (and it's maybe my top favorite classical piece of all time), but the piano version is lovely, too! As far as Rachmaninoff, I'm working for fun on a set by Rachmaninoff entitled "Fantasy Pieces." I especially like the Elegie and the Prelude in C# minor. They are not extremely difficult, but extremely rewarding!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961393681254484868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049003597730476556.post-28010861299676675052009-06-06T15:52:49.556-07:002009-06-06T15:52:49.556-07:00Worst: Either being too loud, or being too quiet.

I'd say my...Oooh, personality quirks, ouch. ;D<br /><br />I'd say my worst is somewhere between being bossy with my younger siblings and being impatient.<br /><br />My best? Hmmmm.... Well, I can say for sure that I am loyal to the death. Wait, is that good or bad? LOL. :D<br /><br />Aaannnnddd.... I have a pretty good sense of humor. Being in a big family and having a herd of dairy goats has developed it very well.<br /><br />One more! I make friends easily! :D<br /><br />Okay, someone else's turn now!<br /><br />~CaityKing's childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02667986668549741423noreply@blogger.com
