2. learning and growing closer to God

3. spending any time in the outdoors always brings me joy

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

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

[E]xperience

I was raised in the Seventh Adventist Church. I slowly fell away from going to church but never lost my love or faith in God. My husband and I with our girls have recently make the conscious decision that we need the lord my upfront in our life and have begun coming back to church to receive the help we need in bringing God back into the #1 spot in our heart and lives.

Last year with my girls youth group I was a chaperone on their mission trip to Portland, OR where I was able to help the needy and spread the Lords word to the less fortunate.

Having both my daughters at such a young age.

Being married to a combat veteran has taught me unconditional love and understanding and the knowledge that without God in my corner I would’ve never had the empathy and forgiveness to be the best wife and mom I can be.

Going to South Africa a couple years ago and seeing how blessed I am and bringing to the front that I want to do anything I can to help those in our community and in other countries.

To know the things that I have struggled though in my marriage that would most of the time tear a marriage apart but we were able to overcome has been able to allow me the true meaning of forgiveness and faith in the Lord.

Helping some of my family members overcome addictions has shown me new meaning to patience, loyalty and forgiveness.

Not a negative but having 2 daughters and being married by the time I was barely 21 has pushed me to mature and be true to myself and everyone I am around to the best of my ability and to not judge others.
