#1 Gift, Giving (100%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I believe in tithing and giving offerings above my tithe. I save money so that I can give it away. I have sacrificial given to the point where I must look solely to God to come through. I find joy in giving. I love to encourage others to give. I do not want recognition for my giving. The Lord has favored us with the ability to make and save money. He has been very generous to us.

#2 Gift, Serving (84%)

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I love to serve, especially by feeding people. The Lord has allowed us to retire young, we have time to serve. It is difficult for me to say no, but I have to in order to be effective. I am not good at small talk, working a room, large groups. But, I somehow am able to communicate when in a serving situation.

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

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

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
