Dear Daddy,
Why do I serve with such a yucky, yucky attitude? Why do I have such a serious, introspective, introverted disposition? I was going to ask something else, I think, but I don't remember what. Anyway, please help me serve like You: gladly. Joyfully. If You show me how and help me, we both know I'll do it.

Dear Daddy,
I took a character/personality test at Blogthings, and these were the results:
You Are An ISFJ
The Nurturer
You have a strong need to belong, and you very loyal.
A good listener, you excel at helping others in practical ways.
In your spare time, you enjoy engaging your senses through art, cooking, and music.
You find it easy to be devoted to one person, who you do special things for.
In love, you express your emotions through actions.
Taking care of someone is how you love them. And you do it well!
At work, you do well in a structured environment. You complete tasks well and on time.
You would make a good interior designer, chef, or child psychologist.
How you see yourself: Competent, dependable, and detail oriented
When other people don't get you, they see you as: Boring, dominant, and stuck in a rut
I was quite astounded by how true some of the things were! I wonder about things like seeing myself as "competent" and making a good child psychologist, but the first paragraph is 102% accurate! Well, may I keep being who you've made me, for Your glory.

Dear Daddy,
Right now I'm listing some of Your characteristics. I came across Jeremiah 2:6 while I was doing it:Neither said they, Where is Jehovah that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought and of the shadow of death, through a land that none passed through, and where no man dwelt?
I thought to myself, "What a horrible place they went through! But they came out. Why? Because of You." The verse said "Jehovah that brought us up out". So I thought, "When we go through hard times and come out of them, it is because of You. And though we may not easily remember that You're with us through the hard times, we do remember once we're out. I think that we really ought to hold on to that when we enter another hard time, so that we don't doubt Your loving care.
I love this line from Nicole Nordeman's song Sunrise:But every shadow is evidence of sun
When we're in the valley of the shadow of death, Your there. You're there.
Lamentations 3:22-23
[It is of] Jehovah`s lovingkindnesses that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23)
