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

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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

invited by a relative. Was a free thinker, but was open minded to let my children be exposed to Christianity, hoping they will grow up in a better church environment. It is all God’s leading without me knowing what I will end up with.

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

As Librarian now. In Calvary Baptist Church, Singapore

Assist in children class during BSF class in Singapore.

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

Education. It levels up my life. Was able to study in Singapore ( come from Malaysia ). It gave me much opportunities in life in Singapore.

My own brother , who offered my study and tuitions fees in Singapore

Met my current wife, who is very strong , independent and able.

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:

Poor and lack of family resources in growing up in Malaysia.

Growing up in non Christian environment – pray to all different type of Gods.

A brother who became a ganster and turn to wayward
