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.

Weakness: Talks too much, too permissive
Limitation: Remembering past commitments, follow through with discipline
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
I came to the point that there must be more to life than what I was experiencing, I came to realize that there was something missing in my life, one day I said, “God if you are who you say you are, show me. He gave me a desire to want to know him and gave me a desire to read about him, I picked up the Bible and started to read the Book of Matthew it was there I learned who Christ was and what he came to do.
Jericho City of Praise, Landover, Maryland. I was an ordained Deacon. I was a member from 1990 to 2010.
Queen Chapel United Medothist Church
1982 to 1990. I served as Head of Family Ministry; Usher
New Haven Baptist Church, North Carolina
From childhood to age 17, children choir
Sitting under and Studying from the teaching of Apostol Betty P. Peebles changed my life forever, she is the person who taught me how to walk by faith and trust God no matter what was going on in the natural.
My mother introduced me to the Lord, not so much by words but by her walk. She taught me that tithing was what we owed to God and that I would always be blessed by giving back to God what he gave to me.
Being lied on, someone took credit for something I did, never apoligize for it.
Thrown in a legal battle that I had no part or interest in; attack my character on line, friends walked away without a word. I had to learn to forgive and walk in it.
