Variety

Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, 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

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

I was born into a Christian Family and grew up in Christian Teachings and in a New testament Church of God home. Baptism was a natural progression for me, I got baptised in 1996 at my god-Parents church in Florida. But I believe that in 2016, after meeting with Pastor Dwight during a spell of depression and great heartbreak, when he told me that God loved me first and I didnt have to do anything or be perfect to have His (God’s) love, that changed everything for me. I fell in love with God at that point and that love has grown and progressed to a deep relationship with God and being filled with the Holy Spirit.

Hope New Testament Church of God in Ft. Lauderdale Florida – Dance Ministry and Step Instructor (a lot of years)

I think I can sing, a little bit but i’m afraid-ish.

Working for B3 Parenting completely changed my career path and how I viewed my accomplishments and my potential. It gave me a new trajectory in Project Management and Organisation.

Speaking with Pastor Dwight and him telling me God loved me first, and that I didnt have to be perfect and work for God’s love.

forgiving my father

being molested when I was in High school by a family friend and the subsequent handling of it by my family.

feeling abandoned by my Parents and unloved by my Father

failing in life, relationships and in University with my desired career path; and believing I am a failure

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
