Hi Everyone, Ok I know everyone is good at something so lets all share!!!
1.Eating  ( sorry had to put that in)
2. Being myself ( I'm getting there, though I am very shy)
3. Reading
4.and Writing letters ( at least I think I'm good. You would have to ask my pen pals.)
I'll probably think of more later.
Hugs,
Channah

Hi Channah,
In getting to know yourself better you are encouraging the same in us. Thanks for that.
I'm pondering what to write and will get back to this thread. There are things I'm sometimes good at, things I don't know how to put into words, and things I'm good at "for me", maybe not prize winning but that make me happy.

Well I'm not so sure I'm that good at them, but here's what I love to do!
Singing; listening to music; keeping a weather/climate journal; walking in nature; reading; spending time with family, friends, and my animal family members

Making fudge, when ever we go to parties I bring the fudge & sometmes potato salad.
Playing with my grandson. Thats easy as I had 2 boys & 3 brothers.
Patience, I have a lot of it, but I needed it because I had 2 boys & 3 brothers.
Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Hmmmm...I think the things I am good at are the things that, when I do them, I feel God's pleasure (that's what Eric Liddell said about his running in Chariots of Fire).
1. Singing
2. Knitting
3. Cooking
4. Eating (OK, maybe I don't necessarily feel God's pleasure when I eat, but I'm right there with ya, Channah! LOL)

Unfortunately, I am good a critism and fault finding. LOL! And as our pastor likes to point out, it IS NOT one of the gifts of the Spirit, so I am constantly trying to correct that bad habit! I too am good at eating, pretty good with numbers and I can usually "read" people fairly accurately.

Well I don't I'm that good at anything that I've listened. It was so hard for me to even think of anything to write. I don't think that I'm great at anything but those were some things that I'm kinda good at. lol
Hugs,
Channah

I'm good at making messes. I do clean them up eventually, I'm good at collecting
stuff. I serve people for a living and I do pretty good at that, never have
an empty soda at my table, good at writing letters, my dh always saying you writing
again? Dabbler at sewing but not an expert. And very good at listening to people,
can't solve problems but can listen. And Channah you are wonderful friend. Along with
all the other lovely ladies here. Toni |
