another way to put yourself in a box

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone tries to figure you out and box in the wonderfully diverse personality God gave you. One of the things I love to do is figure people out and put them in a box. Okay, I'm not really a "boxer" per say, but I do love learning about those I love and what makes them tick and tock.

So personality quizzes are really awful for what I just talked about but at the same time I'm a sucker for them. So if you have always wondered what your color personality is then it's your lucky day! Go Here to find out.

I thought my result was unexpected...at least the actual color.
Black is your color.

Nothing can stand between you and your demand for a calm environment. To be free of conflict and disagreement is the only way to live. In fact, it’s this philosophy that probably allows you to be comfortable in conditions that would normally bother others. Your ability to focus is undisputed, and while you enjoy attention, you still have problems understanding how to handle it. No other color out lives by the golden rule as much as you do.



What was your result?

Bible in 90days (ish)


Yes, I needed to add the "ish" as I'm a bit behind. I'm okay with that. I just started Psalms today. Here's a general bit of what I've learned throughout the my reading thus far (my order might be off):



  • God means what He says, obey Him (Genesis)

  • Anyone can forgive anything (account of Joseph)

  • I'm so thankful for grace!!! (Leviticus and all the other law books)

  • Idols are BAD (Kings and Chronicles)

  • If the Lord is in it, it WILL happen (Ezra, Nehemiah)

  • Don't let fear rule your heart, stand up for the Lord, no matter what may happen (Esther)

  • Suffering and persecution, one should consider it an honor to to do for the Lord, that He should choose us to be the one to be used to reveal Himself through us in such a way. Also, why He does things isn't our business.

I would like to finish this by Easter, but I would really like to read it and soak it in, not just skim...which I have definitely done :)
