Validation, Your Gifts, and Serving the Lord
Are you one of those
people who lives for a compliment? I used to be. I used to interact with people
and wonder, "Do they think I'm awesome? Do they think I'm doing everything
right?" I wanted to be the awesomest, "right-est" person they
knew.

2. Originality, the ability to listen to promptings from the Spirit and do and create good things that make you happy.

ever have been, and I'm so grateful for it.
