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

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

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

My brief testimony of how I became a Christian

I first gave my commitment to Christ in 2006 but rededicated my life to Christ in 2013

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

Baptist Student fellowship, Osun state university, Okuku campus, Welfare secretary, Financial secretary, Bible study teacher and Ex-officio, between 2014-2017

Nigerian christian corpers’ fellowship, Sokoto state, State Bible study secretary.

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

Serving as a Bible study Teacher in BSF uniosun, was a direction to my purpose. I never knew I had the gift of teaching until I was made to join the unit and with years I grew

Having a mentor that guided me in my walk with Christ, I got connected to my mentor the same week I got to school, who was my Fellowship president that year and that started my christian journey properly and led to my rededication.

Serving as the State Bible study secretary started another journey, because I was at a point where I lost my foot and was trying to get back. It brought me to a point that I understood to serve in that position can never be by my effort and brought me closer to having a passion to feed people rightly with the Word.

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:

Going through depression – Even after all positive experience I got to a point that I was confused and I felt worthless, I couldn’t hear God neither could I build my relationship with Him. But God brought me out in a way that he brought clarity and taught me to walk at the pace He takes me

Getting into a relationship that was toxic and was gravitating towards physical attraction, making a decision to step out of it brought me back to a point of building up my boundaries again with God’s help

Almost falling into a trap of having sex, because I got consumed with personal desires and became less focused on God. I was trying to run things as fast as I could and it brought down my walls. It brought me back to realization of what I was doing wrong

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. Organize classes, programmes round some countries where I could gather believers to teach more about our Christian journey and how to live as God would want us to

4. Write books that can help people, speak more through podcast that will be known all round and widely listened to.

5. Run a brand that create wears, fashion accessories with inscriptions about God with a purpose of making Christ famous by fashionably representing Him wherever we go. I am in the process of this
