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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

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

Hearing/ reading the truth & word by people who walk by Faith as a strong believers.

Seeing miracles and people spiritually set free.

Being discipled by strong exciting people.

List 3 Negative Experiences from your past that have helped to Shape me, but also have given you great compassion for others going through similar circumstances:

Seeing someone with addictions that you have helped, fall back into their old pattern after being helped out of it.

Sharing the gospel when somebody twisted and uses the word against you or others.

A pastor’s teaching of the world being out of context. When my husband and myself discussed it, he rejected it and us. Seeing how easy the enemy the enemy can cause a good man to fall into description made me sensitive to the devil’s sly tricks. Made my also more wise to protect my heart and mind with the armor.
