Variety

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

I had been molested as a child, and my father was absent in my life, and I suffered from low self-esteem. I was at a point in my life where I know there had to be a better way than this, my heart was so low and I could feel God tugging at my heart, and so I accepted him into my life(heart) in 1999. And I have been growing in my Faith.

Custodian/Usher (MS)

Sunday School Teacher(MS)

Evangelist(MS)

I learned how to submit to the authority of leadership

I learned how to humble myself in serving in what ever area in the church, that needed to be attended to

I learned how to serve others, and realize it’s not about me, but about Christ.

I learned through ushering, that everybody is not as nice and welcoming as you. But, it taught me that regardless of how others treat you, you still have to keep your integrity and remember that you represent God in your actions.

I learned while teaching Sunday School, that not everybody wants to hear the truth.
So, when others spoke against me, I had to remember that many disciples were killed and thrown out of churches, because they stood for truth. I still stood for truth, while praying and loving those who spoke out against me. Because it’s not about me, it’s about Christ.

I’ve learned while evangelizing, that I came up against different people’s opinions, about women teaching the word of God. But, I learned how to not care about what people think, but knowing what God called me to do. And as a woman, make sure that I stay under proper authority.
