This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I enjoy seeing people learn. The look on their face when you can see that ” they got it” . I also like to share what I know. Not from a ” I know more than you” stand point but from the “I want you to be informed and equiped” standpoint. I also like to figure out how people learn.

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

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

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

Workaholic, alcholic, driven and sucessful but unsatisfied to the point of depression. Selfish and proud, ruining my marriage and family looking for something that would give me peace and satisfaction. Then, one night while venting to my wife she told me to “give it to God” “pray.” She said this mainly to shut me up. She couldn’t take much more of my crying on her shoulder and blaming her and looking to her for sympathy and comfort. But, I took her anvice and I actualy felt better. Then I felt that I needed a Bible, so I got one. Then I started reading. I didn’t understand it very well, so we went to church and I read some more. Then I heard that the whole Bible was about Jesus. This changed things. I started to see that what I was looking for in work and alchohol and self was not there. I realized that what I was looking for was only found in Christ, so I started seeking Him. I shortly thereafter had a crazy dream. I didn’t understand it at the time, but Jesus was telling me to quit wrestling with Him and start following Him.
