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

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

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

Parents are active Christians and gave me a solid upbringing. My personal relationship took off in about 7th grade

Baptist church, Townsville PA
Youth group leader; sang on worship team. 6 yrs

Cambridge Springs, Baptist church; girls group; 2 yrs VBS 2 yrs; nursury worker

Titusville free methodist church, youth group worship leader and small group leader 3 yrs; sound board worker 1 yr

Coming to the Methodist church in Cambridge springs where i’ve been able to learn under Pastor Joe.

Being asked to be the youth worship leader, where i had to relearn/ brush up on the guitar.

I had a best friend in high school who was the most godly man i had ever met, so on fire for God. He pushed me to know God. And it was at his youth group, the year after we had graduated where i was helping out, that God spoke through the youth pastor’s wife, directly for me about something I had prayed.

Being cut from the volley ball team in high school because the rejection taught me to never reject others, but to make them feel welcomed

My husband ended up being mean, manipulative, and mental…and was unwilling to get help. Our divorce has shaped me and lent me to know how to respond/react to hurting people and people with mental disabilities.

My 2nd marriage of two weeks when he decided to apply for a divorce, just this past year, has made me continue to grow and rely on God, more than ever! And I can relate to people on almost anything they bring up.
