Your Primary was ‘The Retriever’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Otter’, 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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

Christ was introduced to me in my childhood by my grandmother. Though over my years, I have strayed from Christ, wherein I wasn’t an active Christian. However my faith and belief never wavered.

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

My most active Ministry Experience would be at Bible Baptist Church Of Palmetto. I became a member August/2020. Out of all my years of attending church, this is the absolute most that I have been an active Christian.

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

Making the choice to become a Nurse.

Being Loved and giving love.

Becoming a Godparent to 4 beautiful souls, who I love abundantly as my own.

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:

Being abused in my teen years. Going through it toughens you in one aspect. I in turn am very protective of my loved ones/friends not matter their ages.

Not having a relationship with either biological parent. Despite no loves shared/received from them, I turned out to be such a loving individual. God saw fit to give me many parents at various stages of my life’s walk
