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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I attended church regularly and even read the bible from Genesis to Revelation 2 times but something in me was not satisfied. I had a very unforgiving nature always self centered and always wanting revenge whenever any one hurt me.One day I listened to a sermon on forgiveness and showing gratitude to God.I realized how self centered and ungrateful I had been to a God who was so merciful to me. I answered the Alter call and rededicated my life to Christ once again. i promised to start afresh to lead a life of obedience and Service to God.To me that was the Day I started my true Christian life. Thereafter I attended the New Believers Class and thereafter started to be a Church Worker. I have since worked hard and begged God to give me a Nature that Loves my neighbor as myself and that also strives to be Christ like.

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

Church worker in Welfare and Empowerment Department. RCCG, Christ Church

Head of Department Welfare and Empowerment Department RCCG,CHRIST CHURCH.

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

Family member who was having serous marital issues and planning Divorce changed after prayer and counselling. Family member is happily married today.

Experience of seeing those who have been healed through the word of God.

Working in Skills acquisition projects in Church and having the Joy of seeing some people able to start Business successfully after only two weeks Training.

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:

Had difficulties initially before passing a professional Examinations. Taught me patience and perseverance. I understand what people are going through when working full time jobs and also struggling to pass professional exams.

Experience working in a politically charged environment where the Boss was rather Hostile. It helped me to seek help in prayers and to be closer to God. I feel empathy when I see young people going through that today.

Coming from a humble Background my family had difficulties paying my school fees when i first got to secondary school. I was later awarded a scholarship. Today I feel sympathetic to young people who have financial challenges in their educational pursuits.
