Merrill continues:

The first key to knowing your makeup is to understand your identity, says Merrill. Your identity is who you really are. It’s what gives you value. You were created exclusively by God and for God. This is your true identity. You are hand-made, custom-designed, and fully loaded by God and, because of that, you have immeasurable value. The second key to knowing your makeup is to understand your gifts. As a father, why is it important to understand your identity and gifts? So you can, in turn, love and lead your children by validating their value and gifts.
