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

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

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

[E]xperience

I think I have always had a hold on my heart from God. Always felt that doing the right thing no matter what, obedience, truthful, kind and loving. I would have prayer meetings in the office before the start of every day and I just wanted to be closer and closer with God. Became more and more conflicted with practices and things that existed within the world and around me just grew stronger where the desire to separate from that life took over and around 7-8 years ago that calling became stronger and I decided to be baptized. I have NEVER regretted that decision and only which I had made the step early. But I know God does all things according to his perfect synchronizing time.

I am currently serving in the Teens Ministry

Solid friendship. Having friends and family who support you no matter what.

I had a senior manager I reported to that due to his preconceived notions, biases, etc. Was horrible and used every opportunity to penalise me or my team. Biases were shown for other country operations. However, my father (earthly) reminded me tha I work for God not man and that whatever I do, I should do it to the best of my ability. I also decided that I was going to show the individual grace, love and respect. Decided to look beyond the bad treatment and focus on God and the lesson involved. It ended that the individual when leaving stated to me and to the rest of the region that he has never come and individual more gracious than myself, knowledgeable and talented and that they have never known someone who could always rise to a challenge and overcome so graceful.
Many lessons were learnt or reinforced from this experience. Always treat others as you would want to be treated. Put yourself in someone else’s shoes no matter how badly they may be treating you as its usually a sign of insecurity. Always try to help others and many more. Too numerous to be stated here

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

• Putting Your Spouse First
• Your Kids Second
• Everyone Else After those

3. Helping others realise their full potential and dream

4. Build a business where persons can see you can be successful and be of God. Too many persons beleive that success is only money and things driven and that you cant get anywhere in life without adopting the practices of this world. Have a business resource center, that helps others based on the Godly resource, leadership practices and principles. This would be a Global centre for persons to access and utilise.

5.
