I twit and blog on google. My name is Rebecca. I am laid back but not too laid back. I am Dutch, Irish, German and Cherokee Indian. I find culture and humanities to be interesting. I love horses, Labradors, puppies, St. Bernard poodles, etc. My nature is unassuming. Competition is foreign to me, except in the areas of academic debate and sports. I feel and believe that my life is on course, planned by God's destiny and purpose. Time is a gift that I give myself and others, and that they give to me. I have heard that men like a mystery. I try to not be elusive or distracted from my main focus. Then I won't be misunderstood. I don't find it acceptable to me or funny to talk in a riddle. I believe that I understand men to the degree that they have some elements in common. Those common elements help me to understand how they perceive women and want to be treated by them. It is interesting that my insight into understanding myself and others comes out of the foundation of having trusted God.
I have been characterized as having an extroverted, sensing, feeling and judging personality. Actually, my judging is based on making intelligent decisions. I don't allow myself to see the big picture until all of the pieces of the puzzle are in place. I am practical and pragmatic. I can assess how I feel about some situations rather quickly, when called for. Some examples are: where to eat, shop, travel and organizing for that. I've established clear-cut boundaries of : how I will spend my time, where I will and will not go, and effectively communicating my ideas and feelings to others.
The ESFJ personality describes me as being a dutiful host and being a traditionalist.
I am the ultimate host. I am gracious, hospitable, who delights in serving others and making sure they are well fed and cared for. When it comes to hosting any social occasion – birthday party, shower, housewarming, Italian meal, holiday, anniversary celebration, – I can barely contain my excitement. As soon as the date for such an event is announced, my mind is going a hundred miles a minute – planning, organizing, and thinking about how much fun I and my guests are going to have. I love to decorate around a theme that includes food and music which warms the soul.
Spiritually speaking, my faith allows me to be more confident than one who has alot of education or money. Sometimes, I just am the last man standing. God gets the glory. My strength is in my control and discipline of my speech and emotions. I was raised in a strict environment. My experiences and faith allow me to exhibit grace under pressure. When the world is thirsty for power and fame, it could openly have its guns ready, along with anger. My spiritual warfare prayer involves my not giving into fear. I pray the scriptures. I use worship, the Word and prayer to control sexual lust and material lust in myself. I don't make it a practice to slander people. For me, slander and disagreement are two different things. The key thing to my daily victory is shaming the devil in my action and in my words. I don't condemn myself and I recognize negative speech. I make myself accountable to God, which is a personal thing. I feel responsible and accountable to not harm others through neglect or abuse. I don't take no for an answer in the spiritual realm. To give a concrete description, I know that the anointing isn't cheap. I've roughed it in my life. I've had to stand, spiritually, which I think is the hardest thing to do. But, evidently God thinks that it is my specialty. I have found that it is dangerous for me to complain or get frustrated. Frustration only leads to depression, fear, doubt and unbelief in God and His Word. I don't fear anyone or anything. I want to be a soldier for the Lord. I pray for God to jerk the comfortable rug right out from under people. That can be interpreted to mean -whatever they depend on or put faith in other than God needs to be dealt with. I am thankful for conviction that comes from the Holy Spirit drawing me to Him. I pray that God puts men between a rock and a hard place or put a vice grip on them. I am motivated and inspired by my belief that Jesus grieves over sin.
I am anything but boring. There aren't enough hours in the day for me. I'm excited. I am funny, silly and living my 1st childhood in the playful sense. I could easily be on Comedy Central.
I love to cook. My favorite dishes are: 1)Creole Veal Chops 2) Brisket 3)Veal Meatballs with Sour Cream Sauce 4)Beer-Baked Beans with Short Ribs 5)London Broil 6)Glazed Corn Beef 7)My Tomato Sauce  Chocolate Pie 9)Pecan Cake 10)Green Jellied Salad 11)Banana Bread 12)Refrigerator Rolls 13)Buns 14)German Stollen 15)Bagels and 16)Barbecue Ribs. I love to read to children. I am doting to animals. I particularly love St. Bernard poodles. Wheel of Fortune and the Hallmark Channel are my second home next to Barnes & Noble. I write technically and scientifically. College libraries, bookstores, Michael's and Hobby Lobby are like Disneyland for me. I love to sing.
My Ideal Person:
I am looking to make friends with someone who is healthy-emotionally and sound mentally. I am the type of person who is not shy about expressing my emotions in a relationship. What is powerful is that I use so many avenues to express myself artistically, that I am complete. By giving of myself to myself, I can have leftover joy to share with others. Relationally, I am for the underdog-the one considered least likely to succeed. If a guy was burned in a relationship and yet, bounces back, that would appeal to me. I'm looking for a dedicated christian who has the courage to call the kettle black. I can spot anger and resentment a mile away. I am for counseling 100% if the situation calls for it in another person's life. I've had some, myself. I dislike critical, negative behavior. I don't like soap-opera dramas. I like a guy who can specifically detail to me his walk with the Lord and how his path is progressing. I attend a non-denominational, tongue-talking, spirit-filled church. I particularly want to know how the guy lives without letting worldly influences affect his lifestyle.

Wings, Boston Legal, Dancing With the Stars, the Bachelor
Favorite films:
Good Will Hunting
