We've all just gotta get along


I'm sure at times you've noticed how different we all can be. You can sometimes spend hours with someone, but you just can't figure out what makes them tick. That's because we all have our own unique personality types.

God has created us unique and we all have our own blend of temperaments that guide our behaviour. We must just be careful not to put ourselves in a box because our personality is made up of a blend of temperaments. Over the centuries many studies have been done and various theories developed.

If we take the time to understand ourselves better and also what makes up the other temperaments then we are able to learn to get along better with the people around us. Psalm 139 v 14 tells us that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. God took time to mould us. We must remember that our personal life experiences, family background and environment also shape who we are, but if we take the time to get to know ourselves better we are better able to adapt to the people around us.
