The fifth Destiny Identifier™ we will discuss today is Giver. They are the arms of the body.

Only 6% of the population score Giver first.

This is why so many ministers have to practically beg for money. Giving only comes natural for 6% of us. They will always think or act before they feel. So their giving comes from a practical place not an emotional place like the Mercy identifier.

Giver – to present voluntarily and without expecting compensation; bestow: the quality or state of being resilient; springiness. To give as a present; bequeath.

Givers love to give. They spend their life helping out other people. Where Servers see the needs of a situation, Givers see the material needs of people and try to fill it.

Givers are naturally generous, gracious, grateful, hospitable and resourceful.

They love to oversee people’s financial state and help them know how to manage it better. They are typically by nature frugal people. However, they themselves love to receive presents. This is because that is what they love to give. And their gifts are always of the highest quality.

They try and manage their life and yours as this comes very natural to them and they are usually good at the task.

They give freely of their time, money, love and possessions. They want to be part of organizations and ministries they give to and like to know if the money is going out to help others.

They also like to give anonymously. They do not need the recognition.

They make the best evangelists because they see the need for the salvation of souls. They will intercede faithfully for people until the mission is accomplished.

Givers usually retire with financial dignity. They usually stay on target with their lives and know how to find or create the resources they need to succeed. However, they like to manage everyone so they have to be careful not to become too controlling.

They are great at sending cards or gifts as they look for the likes and dislikes of people.

They are usually good communicators and love to show hospitality in their home. They like to entertain.

They expect others to be responsible and use their money wisely. They typically will look for the best deals, savings or discounts and may even clip coupons even though they have enough money.

They are warm and inviting people and have a way of making you feel special. They do like you to appreciate what they do as they strive to make life better for others.
