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

Golden Retriever- Good at making friends. Very loyal. Retriever personalities do not like big changes. They look for security. Can be very sensitive. Very caring. Has deep relationships, but usually only a couple of close friends. Wants to be loved by everyone. Looks for appreciation. Works best in a limited situation with a steady work pattern.

Strength: Accommodating, calm, affirming
Weakness: Indecisive, indifferent, unable to express emotional, too soft on other people
Limitation: Seeing the need to be more assertive, holding others accountable

Lion- This personality likes to lead. The lion is good at making decisions and is very goal-oriented. They enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Because lions are thinking of the goal, they can step on people to reach it. Lions can be very aggressive and competitive. Lions must learn not to be too bossy or to take charge in other’s affairs.

Strength: Goal-oriented, strong, direct
Weakness: Argumentative, too dictatorial
Limitation: Doesn’t understand that directness can hurt others, hard time expressing grace

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was raised in the church and had a strong childlike faith, so much to where I experienced God in my different ways. As a grew up in the bible belt and grew a way from the root of my faith through seeing Christianity as a identity label rather than a relationship and about who God is and who he calls me. I began to tag other labels to my identity, and search on how to accept the ones societies give that I love and change the ones I didn’t. Through the confusion of idenity I feel in to pleasing my flesh and being prideful in where I succeed in my persona. I became so lost in confusion and how to reach me though high school and college, to a came to a point in college where I opened my heart to Who the Lord is, what he had done and who he says I am. Learning Christ through scripture and how sinful I am but how grace and faith save. The Lord continues to mold me, now I allow him to do so, and though what I learn about him is where I find myself.
