Addicted to Reasoning
I love figuring things out.
Even as a child, I absolutely loved puzzles. Putting things together piece by piece has always been exciting for me. I like figuring out step by step problems; math was always my favorite subject. Even after figuring out an equation, I would do the problem in reverse to make myself 100% sure that I got it right.

Devotions for Everyday of the Year: Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
