[H]eart

Three things I love to do that bring joy and fulfillment in my life:

1. I love watching the ‘penny drop’ when people get revelation

2. I love seeing people grow and mature

3. I love watching God restore and mend lives and feel it’s a privilege when I can be part of the process

Who I love to work with most, and the age or type of people:

Seers, any age or type of people group, especially encouraging people to realise they can ‘hear’ as they learn to interpret the symbols they see.

Church issues, ministries, or possible needs that excite or concern me the most:

Need: husband has MS, we now have carers 5 nights a week and 2 days a week. Although I sense a shift of seasons as I am ‘ emerging’ again, I have been exhausted and have to be very wise about my time commitment to attend church because of this restriction.

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

Having to lay down Ministry and career to nurse husband

Nearly died on Ministry trip in Haiti, experienced the power of intercessors praying for me

Survivor, now thriver of childhood abuse. Able to work with deep emotional pain because I know God heals and we don’t need to have the identity of a victim.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

  • Everyone Else After those

3. Grow in Prophetic, (currently on year long mentoring course)
