As I prepare for my service to our Church as commentator *** today, I continue to seek the Holy Spirit ‘s guidance .
Dr. Grassi Guts, Grace & Glory approaches scripture like a linebacker* ~ so I’ll do the same, per these positions:
Stance ~ “starts with the right foundation”
So then, anyone who hears these words of mine and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain poured down, the rivers flooded over, and the wind blew hard against that house. But it did not fall, because it was built on rock. But anyone who hears these words of mine and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain poured down, the rivers flooded over, the wind blew hard against that house, and it fell. And what a terrible fall that was!
~ Matthew 7:24-27
Alignment ~ line up with the right people
Keep company with the wise and you will become wise. If you make friends with stupid people, you will be ruined.
~ Proverbs 13:20
Do not be fooled. “Bad companions ruin good character.”
~ I Corinthians 15:33
Christ’s message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts.
~ Colossians 3:16
So Jesus said to those who believed him, “If you obey my teaching, you are really my disciples; you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
~ John 8:31-32

During this week’s conference call with my dissertation chair , she called me
conscientious .
I not only accepted this ~ to ♥heart♥ and absolutely at face value ~ as the best compliment from her (when we were discussing the running and re-running of my statistics for my research results ) but also am ensuring that I live up to this standard .
When my cohort members and I were admitted into our doctoral program , conscientiousness * happened to be one of the personality traits for which we tested and that we studied in our leadership theories literature. It comes from the (1b) Big Five OCEAN ” acronym:
O penness (or O riginality)*C onscientiousness (or C onsolidation)
E xtroverion ~ I’ve also consistently tested high for this in the (2) Myers-Briggs ENFJ for E xtraversion • In tuition • F eeling • J udging) both when I took it as a psych minor for my undergrad and again in doc school A greeableness (or A ccommodation)N euroticism (or Emotional In stability) ~ the reverse of this attribute as leaders and doc students is ideal to deal
According to the (1a) instrument provided by my doctoral degree program , someone who is conscientious is “achievement”-oriented and “self-disciplined” ~ so this implies that conscientiousness involves intentions (definitely something for which I strive ).
Currently, my conscientiousness has stuck with me through school ~ as both a scholar educator
This past week, I taught my students about literary terms , so I tied them into ♪music♫ and pop culture:
Asyndeton ♫George Strait ♪The Chair♪

Irony ♫Alanis Morissette ‘s ♪Ironic♪

Now I know that my advisor wasn’t trying to flatter me, but her acknowledgment meant encouragement of the ♥heart .
I challenge you fellow servants and leaders to consider which personality traits that you have in order to enhance your strengths and improve from your weaknesses!

Addendum
After I helped lead my †Church† in prayer at Vigil Mass, Fr. Bob Pastor , greeted me as “Soon-to-be Dr. Dispo ” ~ to which I replied, “GOD-willing ,” and “to glorify GOD .”

What is your calling in life?
We all have a purpose, and our greatest sense of purpose must come from a higher power.
In my case, as a †Catholic, I’ve sought †GOD’s will for me.
I’ve always considered two options:
having a spouse in the Sacrament of ♥Marriage♥
or ♥marrying♥ †GOD† in the religious life (I visited with a sister of the religious order from my †Catholic† university a few years ago)
However, I still can be a single lay person who ♥loves♥ and serves †GOD† with all of my ♥heart♥ and soul .
Consider The Nun’s Story Audrey Hepburn
This film featured a woman’s challenges between upholding her vows and satisfying her own wants, such as
silent time vs. speaking up
serving the Church vs. serving the community where she worked (Congo medical care)
Filmed on site in Congo in the 20th Century
We’re all human and have our moments. It’s just part of life here on Earth and a matter of maintaining what’s most important to us.
