Reading this I realized what my "fear is". It isn't failing. It is a fear of obsessing. In the past I had an eating disorder in my teens and again in my mid 20's. I am many years past that but, I think I may run the other way in caring for myself. Whether it is exercising, eating well, doing my mental health work, all of it. Maybe I am afraid of deep diving into health and going way to far. Wow. I Learned something new about myself. Also, your relationship with Jesus is yours. I have to say that I am a 9 all day long. I have a personality type. God made me that way. Jesus loves me the way I am and I am so grateful. I love my church but, I love the person who told me about Jesus and his love and his grace and how to find it so much more than that. :) Have a wonderful day Alexa.

I definitely understand the Enneagram isn't for everyone and some question the spiritual basis of it. I am not using it as an end all be all by any means and think we should all work to rise above our personality to be more like Christ. I'm really sorry that's what you took out of this article, it was in no way the focus of it.
