The Rain in Spain - Part 3

My first sunrise in Spain! I'm really happy to be living outside the city with a 15min walk to classes everyday!
The first week of the course was FULL ON amazing! Lots of ministry time with prayer, worship, tears and breakthroughs! We did the DISC Personality Profile to find out how we tend to lead.

Personalities and the value they bring to a team:
D - Developer - Takes initiative
I - Influential - Influences people
S - Stable - Builds relationships
C - Conscientious - Focuses on details

Now everyone is labelling each other as D, I, S, or C and having a little fun saying "you're doing that because you're an I" or "That's my C coming out"! It's very enlightening. I feel that this has shed a WHOLE new light on the way I see myself and the way I see others. Not to put us all in boxes, but I understand why I would see things differently than others. I would encourage everyone to take the profile test if you can. I am a C with S as my secondary personality. If you have and know what you are, I'd love to find out what you are! :)

I was being hard on myself for being a C so a friend shared this analogy with me. A shepherd is like a D leader while the sheep dog is a C circling the herd of sheep making sure they are safe and going in the right direction. Wow! I'm making every effort to embrace my gifts - Ps 139!

We see sheep in the field at least once a day and we run into him moving his herd around a few times a week.
