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
A friend invited me the her church and 7 years later I accepted Jesus Christ as my savior with the help of six hears of Bible Study Fellowship and Harry & Steve attending every year with me.
1) American Baptist, Portland, Ore., leading ushers. 2) Creekside Christian Church, AKA-First Baptist Church, Elk Grove, Ca.. Setup & cleaned up communion for 2 years. Greeter, Usher for 18 years and Where I can be of help also.
The people that came along side of me and stayed for 7+ years before accepting Jesus Christ and ALL are still there when needed…….amen!
Chances trusted me enough to give to me the opportunity to serve in other positions in the church.
Prayers from others in times of need. They did and they worked.
Walking my talk not just talking my talk. It was talking only at first—Hebrew 10:23
Keeping God, Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit first in the church.
Dianna’s and my divorce. We are now 21 years remarried at this time.
