So It's 9 in the morning and I'm tired as heck. I'm sitting down with my friend Kj. Kj isn't one of my really good friends that I love spending time with. Whenever I see him, we always tease each other and make trouble to one another. He dated my sister and I dated his brother, so we always have something to say to each other. Though he's not my best friend, he's so cool to hang with and fun to talk to.
Well we had to attend this session at church about God give gifts. It was a 5 hour session! The night before, I stayed out til 3 in the morning and woke up at 7. I had to be there at 9 in the morning. He was the first person I seen when I arrive at church so we sat by each other.
It wasn't a bad meeting. We were told that each and ever one of us has a God given gift, no matter if it's an extraordinary gift like speaking in tongue or a natural gift like being a good listener. We wrote down all the gifts that we were given. Then we were broken up into groups with people that we knew. Of course, Kj and I were in the same group. We expressed to everyone what we thought our gifts was and then each person in the group would say that they agreed with you or not and maybe add on more gifts that they think you were blessed with.
I wrote that my gifts weren't special gifts, but natural gifts. I said that my gift was just being a good friend. Everyone went around in a circle saying that they agreed and they added other gifts that I had, like being joyful and humble.
It came to Kj and I thought he was gonna say something mean like what he always says to me. Well before me, it was his turn to share his gifts and I kinda teased him saying that his gift was being friendly...to girls. Lol. It's our little inside joke. Well its his turn to tell me about my gifts and I'm just chill and relaxed and expecting that he'd say something like: your gift is being irritating, or something like that.
He ends up telling me that I'm his motivation. That even though we talk every once in a while, that when we do, he enjoys my presents and I somehow motivate him. That seriosuly took me to by surprise. I love Kj, he's so sweet. That made my long, tiring day and I enjoyed the rest of the session.
I also have the gift of crying. lol. And that was almost a tear dropping moment. (: Thank Kirsten.
