The seventh and final Destiny Identifier we will discuss today is Mercy. They are the heart of the body.
30% of the population score Mercy as their first Destiny Identifier.
Mercy – compassionate or kindly forbearance shown toward an offender, an enemy, or other person in one’s power; compassion, pity, or benevolence: an act of kindness and favor
There are more people that score Mercy as their first gift than any of the others. I guess God knew we all need a little more Mercy in our lives.
So in saying that, it is imperative that you understand people with this Destiny Identifier™.
Why, because a lot of people around you walk in this gift. Mercy people feel then act then think.
Mercy people need unrestricted love and acceptance. They show that to others so they like to receive it from you. They are the people that feel the hurts and pains of the world.
They cry with you and laugh with you. Their passion is people, unlike the Perceiver whose passion is projects.
Mercy people tend to look for the good in others and have a tremendous ability to extend love.
They are attracted to people who are hurting or in distress. If you have a child with this gift, they are probably bringing home the most troubled friends because of their desire to help them. Or, they are bringing home all the lost dogs or stray cats.
If they see someone without a friend they will try and befriend them.
They are more concerned for mental or emotional distress than physical. They are the ones who go to the hospital and sit with you for hours. They will inquire about your comfort and make sure you are well taken care of.
They also like to make sure that people have right relationships with each other. They grieve deeply over broken relationships and may even take sides.
They are good at giving preference to others. They will let you on line before them; give you the best seat etc.
They are very careful with their words and actions to avoid hurting others.
They can easily detect insincerity or wrong motives.
They are drawn to others with the same identifier. They hate conflict. They are usually late and don’t like to be rushed in a job or activity.
They are ruled by their heart and not their head and are typically very cheerful to be around.
