My Attributes

Well it was about time that I took a long, hard, honest and very admirable look at my god given attributes!

Too many times I dismissed what my gut told me about myself... after all these could not be describing me. Aha! What I have come to realize and accept is that the mind is such a traitor; it will keep you confined to its littleness and cheer on whenever I believed its nonsense. This morning, I decided to follow myself into the crevice of my soul and see what God had deposited there more than four decades ago and this is what was engraved on my heart. Now all I have to do graciously and gratefully accept the talents from God and put it to use I what little time I have left as a pilgrim on this side of heaven.

Only God can bestow such measure of priceless goodness without money, without strife; of course there is a time of testing and though His refiner's fire get too hot, it is still just at the right temperature to restore the soulful quality that He is working on. Life experiences continue to reshape my personality and purpose on earth... that is how tests are designed. Some are easy and some are so tough that no institution can come close to it, let alone match it. So thank you for the life lessons; they are the curriculum that prepares me for assignments that are so big that only you, dear God can determine and provide my qualifications.


Dear God, thank you for this divine moment of revelation. I choose to accept and believe the characteristics that you have endowed me with. So going forward, whenever I look in the mirror of the mind I will see and embrace this powerful creature that you created-me, Nympha Francis.
