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

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

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

When I was younger I always felt left out and different from others and I knew something was missing in my life. When I came to Christ I knew God called me and I didn’t question anymore why I was different.

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

St. Edward’s Catholic Church, Athens, TX. Teacher for Wednesday classes with the children. Years involved about 2 1/2 years

Los Pentecostales de Athens, Athens, TX. Sunday school helper. Years involved about 2 years

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

Moving to Texas from Illinois, it has made me go out of my comfort zone in a good way and got me closer to Christ. God is talked about more in Texas from what I noticed.

Being able to witness to my cousin and invite her to church. It showed me that trusting in God will let everything fall in place for the good.

Being able to witness to one of my coworkers by sharing how God changed my life. This allowed me to let go and let God take over on what to say.

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:

Running away from home at a young age. It showed me that looking for things of the world will get me nowhere.

Losing my grandpa to lung cancer, it’s part of how I came to Christ my whole family started seeking God after his death.

Failing at things in life would discourage me greatly but now when I fail I’m reminded that perseverance is key and God is in the picture now, amen!
