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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Growing up as I have had a great childhood with one sister and both parents I lived in the same house cute old tutor house for all of my life, I was so blessed to be able to have a pretty easy childhood where I didn’t really experience that much hardship. As I just went through life enjoying the trips and the excitement Of life. I always thought my story wasn’t worth being shared as this was so apparent, as I have always thought that my story needed to have an extreme low that went to an incredible high. This inflicted doubts into my mind that my story wasn’t good enough or didn’t glorify god as much as I saw in others lives. Growing up I have attended Watermark Community Church from a very early age and have been taught be some great leaders who modeled what it looked like to walk with the lord full heartedly. Psalm 139: 14 means So much- “ I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made, wonderful are your works for my soul knows it full well. To know that I am gods treasure and his by believing my testimony was unworthy i was denying the glory of god. I can to realize what god has done in my life and how it’s not my testimony but his alone. And that he’s given me a passion to share and evangelize with others.

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

Watermark Community Church: k1 team lead, years involved 4! Special needs inclusion ministry

Watermark Community Church: starting blocks 2 years as a classroom teacher 2 year olds

Young life Capernaum a leader for the past 4 years

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

Taking a gap year for 9 months called the world race

Cutting my hair

Traveling to haiti for my first mission trip

My parents divorce

Getting diagnosed with diabetes

And struggles from learning differences in school
