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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I was having marital issues and was suffering from anxiety, stress and depression. My mother invited me to her church at that time. That day I went to church I felt a strong desire to give my worries and burdens to God. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.

Ministry Experience (Where I have served in the past, if applicable, including ChurchName, City/State, Position, Years Involved):

Iglesia Siloe in Orange – 1 year in the
Worship ministry

Iglesia Esperanza in Westminister- served in the
Worship ministry 2 years.

Tsunami de Dios in L.A. and Santa Ana. Worship ministry 3 years, Children’s ministry 6 months and Women’s ministry 1 year.

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

Helping women and children who came from broken homes, marriages and troubled relationships. Has made me grown to become a more compassionate and understanding person.

Working with sick patients has helped me value life and become more caring for those who are suffering from a disease.

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:

When I was a young girl I would get molested by an uncle. I lived with fear and shame. This past experience helps me relate to other who have been affected by this type of experience. I can share how God has helped me heal and has taken away the fear and shame I was living with. And to learn to forgive that person who did harm to me.

A broken marriage that was restored by God’s love. Testimony to others that there is hope for a marriage to work when Jesus is in the center of your marriage.

Dealing with infertility for over 12 years and an Ectopic pregnancy.
Sharing with other that there is Hope in Jesus. God is faithful to His promises. I believe and trust that God will bless with healthy children. All in His perfect timing.
