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

Under conviction for a little less than a year, I would stay up half the night afraid to sleep (if you know me, that definitely is not a common trait). I was around the age of 16. I would sit in my bathroom floor crying with the light on because I felt like something would swallow me up at night in the dark. I was afraid to die and what would happen if I did. Finally, after spending so many nights that way, it hit me what was happening. I woke my parents up and accepted Christ around midnight. I was finally able to sleep and breathe freely again.

Lakewood Baptist Church, Harrison Tn.

Odd jobs since I was 13

-Service position for elderly group for 5+ years (serving meals, preparing events, setting up, etc.)
-Sunday School teacher aide & substitute. 1 year before leaving church.
-Wednesday night Awana gym time leader 2 years.
-Wednesday night Awana teacher’s aide 2 years

Growing up around a diverse group of people due to the karate school.

Growing up in a law enforcement and military heavy family helped with structure and decision making.

Over the last year, God has been teaching me patience after a closed door in my career path.

Having someone purposely throw a test against me has made me more passionate in fairness, especially among the female population in law enforcement. Not only for women to be treated fairly by other females on the inside, but also to have punishments for bad behavior more even and fair.

Watching my friends get bullied by others (including adults) has shaped me to have a fire for protecting others and not being afraid to fight back.

Being at my grandparent’s house many times when police were called to arrest my uncle for various reasons has helped me grow compassion, not for the criminal, but for their family. Watching my Granny having to make the decision to call the police on her own son for our safety is something that I’ll never forget.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

• Putting Your Spouse First
• Your Kids Second
• Everyone Else After those

3. My husband and I are currently working towards having our own farm one day and would love to be able to donate some of our food that we grow to shelters. Also to add to that, we have both dreamed of building a small house on our property for friends who may be going thru a hard time to live at until life evens out. Particularly his brother, David.

4. If the Lord wants me in law enforcement, one thing I’ve always admired about my father was his ability to interact with those he arrested. I would love to be a mentor and witness to those who have never heard encouragement or heard The Good News.

5. To help get my church in their own building at a location where they feel led.
