Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. I love to Just spread as much kindness as I can everyday. Seeing the look on someone’s face when I give them a compliment or just simply encourage them is what truly gives me fulfillment in my life!

2. Giving advice to anybody that is going through a hard/difficult time in their life and seeing them have a sense of relief after they put that advice into place.

3. Letting others know that it will be okay, and that Through God’s Work we will all be okay, sharing my testimony and instilling what God has Done for me and what he can do for others truly makes me Happy!

Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

Beaver- Organized. Beavers think that there is a right way to do everything and they want to do it exactly that way. Beaver personalities are very creative. They desire to solve everything. Desire to take their time and do it right. Beavers do not like sudden changes. They need reassurance.

Strength: High standards, order, respect
Weakness: Unrealistic expectations of self & others, too perfect.
Limitation: Seeing the optimistic side of things, expressing flexibility

Otter- Otters are very social creature. Otter personalities love people. They enjoys being popular and influencing and motivating others. Otter can sometimes be hurt when people do not like them. Otter personalities usually have lots of friends, but not deep relationships. They love to goof-off. (They are notorious for messy rooms.) Otters like to hurry and finish jobs. (Jobs are not often done well.) The otter personality is like Tigger in Winnie The Pooh.

Strength: People person, open, positive
Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline
