Based upon the experiences I have faced in my past, I am able to encourage others and help them to get to the other side of their struggles. It’s just in my blood to push people!

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I am getting better in this area lol… I remember how much mercy was or was not shown to me at a certain point in my life, and I remember how I felt in return. I just want people to feel hopeful after a moment of mercy instead of helpless with a moment null and void of mercy.

#3 Gift, Evangelism (90%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I can’t help but tell the world about what God has done for me and how much He truly loves me! It is truly by the word of testimonies that I became curious about what God has done and what He can do in my life. I just have this natural passion to boast about Christ!

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
