Spiritual Gift Analysis for Melissa (me)

I thought this was really interesting, when I took this Spiritual Gift Analysis at our church in 1999 (Believers Christian Fellowship). I was also surprised at how close it came to fitting me and saying what I was pretty much.. I wanted to share it, and maybe your church has or would have something like this, that you could take to see what your gifts are in the body of Christ, and what job catagory you would best fit under. It was really fun and interesting to take and get the results back! :)I will share my top 3 that I scored the highest in with you. My husbands was serving, (and I need to add, he took the test first, and convinced me to take it *S*, and he guessed I would score the highest in Exhort:) he was right!

This was to help me function and identify my motivational gifts as identified in Romans 12.

Exhort: I scored a 93%. My highest score, It says:
You are first and foremost an exhorter. You are a relational person, a communicator with others when interacting with them reguarding their growth, walk/and or maturity as a person, a believer. You have an inner sensing of spiritual achievement and goals appropriate to realize such achievement. You are focused on promoting acceptance and harmony among others. In this light you may be able to deal with diverse groups, showing loving, understanding, acceptance, and diplomacy in dealing with others. You seek face-to-face involvement with others, and may frequently be involved in counseling situations. You are good at gaining insight requarding people and life through lifes experiences. When you are focused in this motivation, you have alot to say. You are a verbal person. When you function with this primary gifting, you may be likened to the mouth in the body of Christ.

Perceive: I scored a 72%. My next highest score, It says:
You have a strong inner prompting and ability to percieve what is right versus wrong, good versus evil, or true versus false. You are gifted to perceive, proclaim, promote and pray about the will of God. You possess and intense desire to correct what you see as wrong. You are usually quick to come to and express your perceptions, thoughts and ideas verbally. You tend to be whole hearted in your involvements. You are willing to suffer for what you percieve as right. You have an intense desire that justice be done. You are willing to terminate existing relationships to remain loyal to truth.

Mercy: I scored a 65%. My third highest score, It says:
You identify with the distresses and joys of others.You desire to take action to remove hurts, (especially emotional hurts) and bring healing to others. You are frquently able to discern the emotional status of others and can view life through that intuitive sensing. In this motivation you are drawn to people in distress. You have a vulnerability to hurts from those who fail to demonstrate sincere love to yourself or others. You have a tendancy to aviod firmness until you see it necessary to aviod greater hurt. You have a sensitivity to hurtful words and actions. You may tend to close your spirit to those who are offending you or others. You show significant loyalty to friends.

In the church ministry the top ministry in my gift area for me was:
Junior high Teacher 97%. (Working with Youth)

In the world my top job that I seem to be gifted for is: a Substance Abuse Counselor. 99% (Which I have changed my career direction *S* to a Counselor of some sort, undecided as of this time...*S*.

There were also the gifts of Administration, Giving, Serving and Teaching. I did not include them on here, I dont want to bore anyone, I just wanted to share, and maybe you could do this to one day at your church *S*. Please email me anytime if you would like to talk, or would like the explanation of the other gifts I did not list here or if we have many things in common, even if not, its wonderful to hear what others feel and think.
I always believed we all have our own special gifts, and we all have something wonderful to share, when we use the gifts that God has given to us. Have a Blessed Day.
Melissa
