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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

In Sept. 2011 my favourite cousin had an aneurysm. She was in a coma for months before she passed away in Jan. 2012. After she died, her family found her journal and her last entry spoke about how happy she was to be going to heaven. She had recently committed her life to God and she seemed so happy to know that she was safe in God’s arms. It amazed me to know that she was at such peace, not knowing what awaited her around the bend and I felt like I needed some of that too. The Bible says we should covet good gifts, so that is what I did – I decided that her death was going to count for something and I gave my life to Christ shortly after.
