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 just felt as if something was missing in my life my way was not working I had failed over and over again doing things on my own just wanted to find the missing piece in my life and wanted to be the best mother and wife I could be but needed guidance, so I went to my Church and felt that God was what I was missing all along.

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

The Calvary Moline IL Usher 6 months

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

My great grandparents lived like Christ more than any one I have ever met or seen in my life.

I had a mentor his name was Keton he helped lead me to Christ.

My mother and watching her struggle her whole life yet never giving up.

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:

I was addicted to meth for a few years off and on learning from that experience has shaped who I am today knowing my worth in the Lord and gives me great compassion to help others who are suffering with addiction.

My stepfather was a drunk and abused my mother it shaped me to know what not to have in my life for my husband and father of my child, gives me sympathy for those who are dealing with or have dealt with those circumstances.

Being sexually active at a young age trying to find love a sense of belonging shaped me to know now i only need God and want to help others know the same
