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

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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Became Christian when I was 13.Also was Baptized

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Taught the 2 years old in what WE CALLED WEE CARE. at North Anderson Church Of God. in Anderson Indiana

I was in charge of sending card to the sick and absent people of our church at FREE WILL BAPTIST CHURCH IN ANDERSON INDIANA

Sang in our church choir at Fellowship Baptist Church , in Monroe Tenn.

List 3 Positive experiences from the past that made a big impact on who you are today:

receiving food from a church when I had nothing.

neighbor getting me a care so I could get to work.

being blessed with 3 children

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

My Dad telling me He never thought I would amount to much and giving my twin sister everything .

Being told I could not work in church because I got a divorce from a alcoholic husband.

Being used by my supervisor in surgery to write an orientation program for the new nurses and then being told I was not good enough to be the assistant head nurse. Ask why she had me do the program, he reply was she knew I would do a good job and she did not have time to do it. I was used and it hurt.
