I only had time for 1 test.

Giving, Discerning of Spirits and Teaching... pretty much what I have noticed through trial and error.

Alison was asking me about Giving last night and I said I didn't think I had it anymore (if that is possible)... But the way the questions were phrased, it still popped up. It's just not something I do as freely as when I was single and w/o kids... I guess this shows that if God has gifted me with this, I need to make sure I am using it to His glory... otherwise, there might be a missing piece :)

Mine were pretty close:
1) Administration (this doesn't mean typing!), Shepherding, Leadership, Wisdom

2) Music, Leadership, Administration and Encouragment

3) Exhortation and Leadership

I might note that I only scored a 4 on Ekballism. I had to look that one up! (it means dealing with the occult and supernatural demonic powers)

It's interesting to me how I see God using everyone of these as I grow.

I had another thought - alot of my highest answers are things I DO, some things I've never tried. I don't know if that skews it or not. Like I really don't enjoy some of the details of administration - I'd rather be writing or planning or singing. But I get paid to administrate people to a great degree. So I don't know if I'm really gifted at it or if I just do it more. How do you think that affects the testing?
