#1 Gift, Administration (81%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
God made me that way 😉 I Am organized, thoughtful; a planner and process oriented / outcome oriented thinker.

#2 Gift, Exhortation/Encouragement (71%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
God made me that way 😉 I hurt for people, animals, bad circumstances. I tend to hold back because it hurts! I want to fix it and I get frustrated when people make decisions or do bad things that further a bad situation.

#3 Gift, Teaching (71%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I love to learn. And I am so moved by the face that our world contains so many lies. I want people, esp girls, to know God’s truth not the lies of the earth. To be safe and grounded in God’s truth – the only truth there is. And leading discussion / asking questions to gain understanding and turn others to God is satisfying.

Your Primary was ‘The Lion’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, 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

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
