Positive Daily Inspiration – August 18, 2022 – Six Personality Traits to Admire and Acquire

“The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. God is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies. … In my distress I called to the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From God’s temple God heard my voice; my cry came before God, into God’s ears.” Psalm 18:2,6

1. Selflessness:

In a world where many people don’t have the time or the interest in others, selflessness is a quality that seems to be less and less common, and therefore more in demand by society. People can be selfless in the time they give, the ability to listen, their level of patience and the love that they give. Those who are giving and generous in nature have the power to make others feel loved, appreciated, and special. These people become godlike. While those who are self-absorbed tend to do the exact opposite.

2. Tolerance:

Those people who are tolerant make us feel comfortable with who we are and special as individuals. All of us are different, and many of us have quirks and idiosyncrasies. After all, these differences make the world go round. Having the ability to accept people for who they are and not expect them to be who we want them to be is important in life, happiness and in the health of our relationships. These people exhibit the tendencies of God.

3. Genuineness:

Having the ability to be real, authentic, and honest is unique in a world where we put so much emphasis on the superficial. Feeling comfortable in one’s skin and being true to one’s self is one of the most beautiful traits one can possess. To have a REAL relationship with someone requires honesty … it requires hearing and giving input or feedback that may not always be popular … it means having the strength to tell it like it is and to not be afraid to face the consequences for doing so … it means loving people for who they really are … deep down … and not for what they appear to be. It is godlike to be genuine.

4. Sensitivity:

So often we are focused on what is important to ourselves that we can forget about those around us. Those who are sensitive are often thoughtful, appreciative and loving, in a way that makes you feel understood, valued, and respected. Often, sensitive people are also self-aware, making them mindful of how they impact others with what they do and say. We value God’s relationship with us because of the sensitivity of caring for our needs, and we prize people that do the same.

5. Integrity:

The cynical, will call this characteristic especially difficult to find in today’s world. In a time when people will do things that are underhanded to make an extra buck and do what feels good in the moment without necessarily thinking of the consequences, integrity is a characteristic that is especially unique today. God always shows integrity towards us and following God we must show integrity towards others.

6. Humility:

Whether someone is super-smart, extremely talented, or drop-dead gorgeous, there is something extra special about them if they don’t come across as though they know it all the time. Humility in those that possess extraordinary traits make others feel special too. It is a spiritual trait that the mature human reflects.

Positive Daily Prayer:

Read this in the silence of prayer –

I may not understand
how everything will work out,
but I trust You. I don’t see a way,
but I know You, will make a way.
I have faith at this very moment
You are touching hearts,
opening doors and lining up
the right breaks and
right opportunities. Things may look dark and bleak now, but
I have faith that my door is coming.

Positive Daily Affirmation: I savor my God-given life today to prepare myself for a glorious tomorrow.
