This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I find enjoyment in helping others learn. I love digging into more knowledge and being able to share it to help others know how to improve their skills, knowledge, or life. I feel God wants to use me in a way to teach, but I see him often using me in smaller settings.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
I have found myself in situations where I feel God has allowed me to go through tough times, because my path is crossed with someone who needs to know it’ll be ok in the same type of situations. I love when God uses my struggles to further His kingdom and provides me with peace during my storms. It excites me and I love being able to share that with others.

This gift’s evident in my life in the following ways:
My parents lived this out in front of me in different ways and I feel its a trait God allowed me to have/use too. From summer missions to being a young girl leading friends to Christ I feel God uses me in one on one/small setting evangelism.

Your Primary was ‘The Otter’, with your Secondary coming in as ‘The Lion’, 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

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
