Sunday school pins and the love of God

If you have ever taken the

Myers Briggs "Personality Analysis" instrument you will be,

as I was, totally amazed at how this "written booklet" will

have your personality down to a T. In other words, this several-page document

will ask you questions many different ways, and in many different settings

and it will truly amaze you as to how accurate it will be.

While in the Army Chaplaincy,

we were given this instrument to assist us in knowing our strengths and

how these strengths can be used to best manage our human resources. It

also showed how we can also be misunderstood by others who see things

differently, and vise versa.

It was used as a management

tool to put the right personality "mixes" together in a work

environment to best get the job done. In fact, it got to where I was comfortable

enough with the instrument, and in administrating it, that I used it very

effectively in many marriage counseling sessions. If you ever get a chance

to take it, do so and your spouse also.

Why am I telling you all this?

Stay with this rabbit. There is a little meat on it! As I was walking

through our bonus room at home, I looked down on the floor and saw something

shinny. I bent down and picked it up and low and behold it was one of

my old Sunday school pins.

I held it and read the inscription

and it read "Fifteen Years" and had a gold wreath around it.

I smiled and my mind raced back in time to the many, many different Sunday

schools around the world I had attended.

Since Dad moved so much in

the military, it was not uncommon for us to have been in 5-7 different

Sunday schools in a 10-year period. It was also difficult to keep up with

all the record keeping it took to assure you of getting your Sunday school

pin, especially a 15-year one.
