Your Primary was ‘The Otter’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, and here are the descriptions of your Personalities, and how they can be used for God

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

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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I really gave my life to the Lord when I was in my mid 20’s. My life was in a mess and I tried to take my life. I asked God to help me and lead me and guide me because I could not take this life anymore. Ever since I said that he has been with me every step of the way. Even when I don’t deserve it he still looks out for me.

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

I have served at Pressing Towards The Mark church doing children and singing on the choir.

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

Giving my last $20 in the offering plate and someone blessing me with $20 later on that day.

God waking me up everyday.

Telling my friend about giving back to Christ and she did and she was blessed.

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:

Having issues with my children’s father not being in their live consistently. It has made me a stronger person and being closer to God in the process.

Trying to take my life, but God had a plan for my life. Through with life experience I have a great compassion in helping others who have been in similar situations.

People talking about me and really trying tear down my spirits. Instead of feeding into it I asked God to help lead and guide me on daily basis and tune the negativity out.
