I feel like during this quarantine time, I´ve learned about how God has given me the gift of teaching. Every time I´m inspired and learning about the Scriptures, I am able to tell others about it knowing that it´s the Holy Spirit speaking through me. It´s like story telling. I have been told several times that I should share more often and preach.

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
When I was in middle school I was going through a lot of things in my life. My parents weren´t doing well in their marriage, my sisters were rebelling, my life just didn´t make sense, and there was a hole in my heart that just throbbed with pain. Then through a song “your love never fails” I was able to first understand that God loves me. Then I was able to receive the word of the Samaritan woman during an easter conference and recognize how broken I am. I needed a savior. Shortly after that, I was baptized. Then, I fractured my ankle during a TKD competition and during this hard time, I was reading Job and encountered God´s love for me again. I am continuously growing in my love for God and understanding my relationship with Him through Jesus Christ and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. I am broken, but through Jesus Christ, I am redeemed and the work of the Holy Spirit is being manifested in my life so that I and many others alongside of me will be able to fight this spiritual battle and live this life on earth until the coming of Jesus Christ.
Coming to live here at the Tetzlaff´s, seeing missionaries who truly care for me.
Christmas bootcamp in California. Vision camp. I had to surrender completely and obey God in going. Training like crazy.
My parents and their firmness in sharing the truth with me.
Going through trials in my life with influential Christian servants alongside of me. Fracturing my ankle, searching for colleges and future direction, and through depression, and all those trials.
Roommates were really rough to live with.
Fights with my sisters.
