You're the type of person who thinks before you talk. You speak in an ordered, insightful, and concise way.
You speak authoritatively and with conviction. If you take the time to say something, you stand behind it.

You only say what you need to. You believe that your words are strongest when they're not diluted.
When you have a lot to say, you map out your words ahead of time. You prefer to speak in bullet points.

Thank you. Let me share that my Marine son is aboard Pensacola NAS and, after he passes one more test, Friday, he will be wearing the flight suit.

Next stop - Corpus Christi.

Mark Twain....cuts to the chase every time! Good choice! :)

[corbe]

You don’t mince words. You are to the point and all about the facts.
However, you are charming enough to tell people the truth yet still not offend them.

It’s likely that you have a hilarious, no holds barred sense of humor. And you sure tell an entertaining story!
You’re also quite open. People can ask you anything, and you don’t shy away from controversial conversation topics.

Bless our Beloved Troops, Lord.

Howdy, Kathy! (((hugs)))

Thanks for the ping! Hope your day hasn’t been to wild and wooly! :)

I like people who are direct and truthful!

Indeed I join with you in blessing our troops. They deserve the
best we can give them at all times!

Fragrant Living

April 8, 2015

I am full, having received . . . the things sent from you, a sweet-smelling aroma . . . well pleasing to God. —Philippians 4:18

I’m grateful that God has given us the sense of smell so we can enjoy the many fragrances of life. I think of how much I enjoy something as simple as the fresh and inviting aroma of after-shave lotion in the morning. Or the mellow smell of fresh-cut grass in the spring. I especially enjoy sitting in the backyard when the delicate scent of my favorite roses fills the air. And then there are the savory aromas of delicious food.

So it catches my attention when the apostle Paul says that our generous acts of love toward others are like a “sweet-smelling aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God” (Phil. 4:18). When we think of helping those in need, we usually think of it as the right thing to do—or even the Christlike thing to do. But Paul says that our intentional act of reaching out to meet someone’s need actually fills the throne room of God with a fragrance that brings pleasure to Him.

We can please God with the aromas that rise from being a blessing to others! What an added incentive this is for us to perform deeds of kindness in His name.

Who might need your act of kindness today? Ask God to lead you to someone. Be a blessing. It’s a fragrant thing to do!

Here is what I hope to do for others today: ________________

Blessing others is a blessing to God.

INSIGHT: Paul says, “I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content . . . . I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (4:11,13). Paul’s contentment came from the sufficiency of knowing Christ, not from the gifts he received from the Philippian believers (vv. 14-17). However, these sacrificial gifts were a “sweet-smelling aroma” to God (v. 18; see Lev. 7:12-15).

[Kathy in Alaska]

Still working, but today is the first day in a couple months that things are going smoothly.

And I got an email from Lisa with an update. I’ll post it tonight. Positive news, but very, very slow improvements. Long, long, long road ahead. We have to keep up the prayers and cards.

You Communicate Passionately

 

You speak from the heart. You can't separate your feelings from what you're saying, even in a professional context.
You tend to speak dramatically, with lots of passion and emotion. It's easy for you to get swept up in what you're saying.

You like to connect with people early on so that you can personalize what you are saying to them.
When you converse, you try to find common ground and harmony. Even if you disagree with someone, you try to emphasize where you agree.
