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

At my lowest time in life next to wanting to die God showed up literally saved me thru the television. I’ll never forget it. I was alone and He came.

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

New Hope Sanctuary

W. Melbourne, FL

Usher, teach bible in women’s ministry and anything they need me to do.

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

My first pastor, he taught everything he could about healing ministry and living a faithfilled life.

My store manager who saw potential in me I didn’t see and he built me into a confident and capable person .

My grandmother. She always talked to God and told me every time He answered her prayers.

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:

Being raised in catholic faith all their do’s and don’ts Made me hate religion. When I got saved I wanted everyone to know the Truth. His name is Jesus.

My marriage. I saw the baggage in my spouse that was killing our marriage. I chose to pray diligently for the marriage and my spouse. God was faithful and healed it. Now every time I hear cries about hurting marriages I want to help.

Sick and fragile elderly people as a child I was afraid of. I saw death and it scared me. When I was saved and saw Jesus heal people I knew that that was where I wanted to be used. Praying for the sick and hurting drives me.

Wrapping It Up

The Challenge: Based upon your S.H.A.P.E. Assessment above (the way God wired you), If you knew you couldn’t fail … and ‘lack of money, or time’ was not an obstacle… list your Top 3 Things you would ‘Focus’ your Life on, next to #1 Loving God & #2 Loving Your Neighbor (these would be your ‘3 God-Sized Dreams’ for your life)?

1. My Relationship with GOD

2. My Relationship with Others

  • Putting Your Spouse First
  • Your Kids Second
  • Everyone Else After those

3. To travel all over and teach the Word and pray for the sick and hurting.

4. I would want to be doing what God is doing. Have a place large enough to let everyone in to meet with Jesus and get there needs met. I want prayer rooms everywhere with worship music playing 24/7

5. I would like to travel see the world and show people Jesus every where I go. I want them to see Him not me.
