This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I am a goal oriented person. I enjoy taking on tasks and executing them with a detail oriented spirit. I am in introverted person, but I like to help people with as much as possible. It brings me joy to see that I helped people (even when they do not realize that I did anything).

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I enjoy sharing (to a small group) what I know. When I find out something new, I immediately tell those who are close to me. I was part of a children’s ministry in a former church for many years, and now I work at the cfa daycare. I like to teach people the things I know because that is how I was impacted.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have been acquainted with many different types of people throughout my life. People from different religious beliefs and different lifestyles. As I was going through school, I always tended to be drawn to people who seem to not fit in or seemed like an outcast. That stemmed from me being the one bullied and being left out. I tend to relate to people that have had that similar circumstance. I can relate easily to those people. It is difficult for me to start the discussion, but I think God has given me the skill set and the power to share more than I currently do.

[H]eart

1. I absolutely love to design! I haven’t had much hands on experience, but I graduated from UNCC with a BFA with a concentration in graphic design. I haven’t had any luck with jobs, but it was a degree that I felt God wanted me to go for! I would like to do more with it.

2. I love to read. I read anything for fun as well as to learn new things. I take any book recommendation and run with it! I love to share what I am reading to help further people’s understanding of me and what I like and believe.

3. I love to listen to music. I feel that God speaks to me so much through music. It can sometimes change a mood at the first note.

I love to work with anyone who is truly passionate. I am always open to working with new people, but I always look for the passion for what they are doing. After work, I like to work with people who are in their 20s and older. I need that adult interaction and discussion.

I get excited for anything that is artistically oriented for the church. I love how people are using their talents for God. I have started recently going to the worship arts meetings on Wednesday nights, and I have enjoyed the atmosphere.

Your Primary was ‘The Beaver’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Retriever’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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 first went to church when I was about 12 years old. I always knew about God and the story of Jesus, but it wasn’t until I actual went to church that I fully received the real understanding of what Jesus did for me and the rest of the world. In middle school, I started having anxiety problems and some depression a, and so I started to lean on Him more to help me through all of it. While He helped me through that, I became saved. I have helped a few people, after I was saved, get through some of their anxiety and depression.

Anxiety Disorder and depression that I have battled for years, but have been able to mostly overcome through leaning on Jesus.

Being the outcast in social situations. I was bullied for a while in late elementary and middle school.

The feeling of being lonely in a crowded room.
