#1 Gift, Mercy Showing (78%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
Because God has shown great mercy towards me, i feel its only right to pass that on.

#2 Gift, Exhortation/Encouragement (75%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
once again God has given me a lot of encouragement throughout the years, I also did not get a lot of encouragement in my younger years so I want to give other people what they might not have. they could be going through the same thing that i was going through.

#3 Gift, Giving (65%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I think the giving comes from what the bible says about giving even though you might not have enough because God will give you back what you gave and so much more. I have also seen so many people give everything they can give and God richly bless them.

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

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
