You're very independent - both in spirit and in the way you learn. You can teach yourself almost anything, even if it makes your fingers bleed.
You're not really the type to sit patiently through a music lesson - or do things by the book.
Highly creative and a bit eclectic, you need a wide range of music to play.
Your dominant personality characteristic: being rebellious |

Bible in a Year:
Be very careful, then, how you livenot as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
I dont remember many specifics about my drivers education class. But for some reason, an acronym we learned, S-I-P-D-E, remains firmly lodged in my memory.
The letters stood for Scan, Identify, Predict, Decide, and Execute, a process we were taught to practice continually. We were to scan the road, identify hazards, predict what the hazards might do, decide how wed respond, and then, if necessary, execute that plan. It was a strategy for being intentional to avoid accidents.
I wonder how that idea might translate to our spiritual lives. In Ephesians 5, Paul told Ephesian believers, Be very careful, then, how you livenot as unwise, but as wise (v. 15). Paul knew certain hazards could derail the Ephesiansold ways of living at odds with their new life in Jesus (vv. 8, 1011). So he instructed the growing church to pay attention.
The words translated be very careful, then, how you live literally mean see how you walk. In other words, look around. Notice hazards, and avoid personal pitfalls like drunkenness and wild living (v. 18). Instead, the apostle said, we can seek to learn Gods will for our lives (v. 17), while, with fellow believers, we sing to and give Him thanks (vv. 1920).
No matter what hazards we faceand even when we stumblewe can experience our new life in Christ as we grow in dependence on His boundless power and grace.
What strategy do you use to recognize what might trip you up spiritually? What role do you think other believers play in identifying and resisting spiritual hazards? How might thanksgiving be an important part of avoiding spiritual pitfalls?
Heavenly Father, as I navigate the spiritual potholes on lifes road, thank You for reminding me to look up to You for help.
Happy hump day eve!
