Your Primary was ‘The Lion’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Beaver’, 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

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

[E]xperience

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I grew up in a very dysfunctional home. my mom used to send us to bible study on wed and Sunday’s at Turnpike Church of Christ. This is where I read my first bible and learned about Jesus. We would sing songs on the bus that would pick us up and the church gave me my first bible. On one Sunday, I just felt the Lord call me to the front of the church to be baptized. I do remember my grandmother teaching me prayers from the catholic faith at a very young age. I had an experience of the evil one trying to come after me and I remember my grandmother saying to me to cry out to Jesus and he would come and take all the bad away. At that moment, I called to Jesus and the enemy fled right away. At 5, I just new that Jesus was a powerful name. At 40, I recommitted my life to Christ at the Watch the Lamb play. I watched for the first time and I could see Jesus on the cross, he was reaching out to me that said I did this for you. You are good enough. My whole life I felt not good enough and never being able to meet the expectations of my mother. I never knew my father but here I knew I had one that would never leave me.
