There are a lot of tools out there that
are supposed to reveal who you really are. And who others really are. And be
the key you need for making the most of who you are. Or for you to make the
most of who others are. As if knowing who you are, how you think, what is wrong
with you, and how to change it, can be definitively known by answering some
made-up questions that put you into some made-up categories. And these
questions and categories vary from test to test. Who’s making up these tests?
All of this is just self-reporting in the name of worldly self-awareness.
That kind of self-awareness is a disease. And God awareness is the cure. Here is the one question you need to answer, if you want to be truly self-aware: Are you afraid of God? You should be. The fear of God is the beginning of a wisdom that will help you learn who you are by learning who God is. Then, as you learn to fear God, the right way, you learn what true self-awareness is, the biblical way. And that is how you learn to look to Jesus for and as your significance, sufficiency, and security.
You don’t need some personality test to know the person of Jesus.
