Ok. I have a topic. If you could change anything about yourself, and we're not talking about weight or hair color here. I mean, things about your personality, talents, giftings would you change ? Like would you change your ability to sing? Your ability to speak? Would you want to be more of a way or less of a way? Think about it.
I have been missing all of you as well. It is good to hear from you.
I must say that I am pretty happy with the gifts and talents that God has given me.
The one thing that I wish for is that I was naturally gifted to play the piano. I have taken lessons, and I learned to play a little, but I am not a natural. I wish I could hear a song and play it, like some people I know. I went to Flow's church several months ago and I heard her play the piano. She is amazing. God really used her to make such beautiful music. I am sure that no one is surprosed by that. Flow is good at a lot of things.
Anyway, I am such a worshipper , and I wish that I could play for myself. Then I would not have to depend upon others to know how to play the P & W music that I love to sing. It seems like out musicians are always a step behind. They are just learning worship music that I was singing in high school and college. I don't mean to sound ugly, but I loooooooooooooove to worship God. When I get in front of the people on Sunday I feel like it is just me and God, just like it is a home. I just wish that when I get in that flow of worship that my ability to play could keep up with my ability to worship in song.
Hopefully there was something that made sense in all of my rambling.
I would be naturally talented at ventriloquism and visual art.
Visual art because I have just always wanted to be able to draw and paint, and that is something I am just not good at!
And ventriloquism because it wouldn't matter how big or little of a team I had; I would still have a creative and fun way to teach kids.
I know both of those are learned skills and I could learn to do them satisfactorily; I also know people who are truly gifted and talented in those areas!!
One of the things I would change would be my singing ability. I sing pretty well and am on the P&w team and all. But if I was controlling all that kind of thing, I would be able to sing like Celine Deon or CeCe Winans. I mean open my mouth and blow people away. I too love to worship God and thankfully can hear a song and immediately sit down and play it. It is a wonderful gift that I thank God for. But I also wish I could read music too. But as far as singing I just wish I could sing like that. I would never shut up! (Which I hardly shut up now as it is, so maybe?? God knew what He was doing.) lol I also wish I was more naturally outgoing like my dh. Now, I am alot more talkative and outgoing once I have been around you a bit but just upon introductions, I am a tad bit introverted. I am trying to consciously work on that too. I have just always been that way, though.
I sometimes wish I could change my accent too. I am self concious of it. I sound no differently than any one from around here but I have southun charm I garauntee! And not everyone sounds as cute as Beth Moore! Texas isnt as bad as Mississippi. But Mississippi is better than say south Georgia.Anyhoo....
Deanna I could see you playing a guitar. That is so cool.
With all the talent that I have heard listed so far, it sounds like we could have a group. We could call ourselves the the First Ladies or PPP-Powerful Pastoring Partners.
If I could enhance something about myself it would be my songwriting skills... I have written several songs, but I guess I need to work on making the switch from lyricist to "psalmist"...
