7-29-2022 – A Word to the Wise – Continue on the gifts
A second-born female Mercy married to a first-born Teacher will have a challenging time surviving in this atmosphere. Therefore, it is imperative that a couple understand something about the gifts when choosing a partner. The Teacher in this circumstance will not be able to relate to the spouse will do dumb things like forgetting birthdates, anniversaries, and other meaningful things to the Mercy. When confronted they will deny, justify, or neglect the situation. The result will be the Mercy will be incredibly angry and turn to passive-aggressive behavior.
I have introduced a second variable which is birth-order which may modify the effects of a gift. More on that later. Typically, the non-emotional, physical, or intellectual gifts process with limited empathy. In contrast the emotional gifts have moderate to high empathy. One must remember in all of this when the Lord created the gifts all are of equal value and all in combination, when subject to the Lord, are able to bring honor to him.
It must be remembered that the Lord knew what he was doing. Take the leadership gifts. One leads and the other follows if you try to put two leaders together or two followers you have a mess.
