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

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

[E]xperience

I grew with a strong sense of Gods presents in my life. My mom has never had to make me go to church, I have always seeked Gods presents . I think it was more fear when I was younger. Now it’s about understanding his love for us and his desire for us to love , teach, and build his people.

I have servered in the children’s ministry, Greater Mount Zion Baptize church, Austin Tx.

I have always went to church , but never really served, I have never had a preacher teach or asked us to serve. Didn’t know the importance of it. I was just trying to stay out of the way.

I was in the chore at Mount Sinai Baptize church , Austin Tx , long time.

Graduating from college after having a child at 16, I have a masters degree.

My mother, seeing how hard she worked to survive and take care of us. How she remained, loving and caring, inspite of how she was mistreated by others.

My family. Being brought up in a loving , God fearing house. Surrounded my people who carried themselves with so much dignity and pride. They pushed education and family .

My father not being in my life, I always longed for him. I know him , respect him, but I am heartbroken because of his passive rejection.

I had a child when I was 16 , I still finished college.

Being so unstable as a child, moving a lot. Watching my mom go through so much and be mistreated.
