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 have been attending church my whole life. I have had more revelation and breakthrough as I had gotten older. God has been gracious to me – showing up and breaking through difficult situations or mindsets. I have also found so much more breakthrough as I have lately focused more on my relationship with God and surrendering of self.

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

Worship Leader/Church Events Planning – St James, Trenton Ontario

Sunday School Teacher – St Johns, Portland

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

Word of knowledge from my mother from God related to my healing as a child. Showing me God’s great love for me and his want to help us/me.

Audible God voice speaking to me on how I needed to forgive and not dwell in the past. That’s God’s way is ultimately better than my own way and He always has my best interest in mind.

Vision of Jesus anointing my head with oil and sitting on His lap healing in his presence after I had been bitten.

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:

My father in ministry being judged and rejected by (deceived) members in his congregation. Understanding the weight of being in leadership – the importance or prayer and support/encouragement.

Battling a chronic illness. Understanding the mental highs and lows associated. Understanding certain tactics the enemy will use to try to keep us in doubt, discouragement, or skepticism.

Battling (and being healed from ) mental illness – anxiety and depression. Understanding certain lies I had believed. Understanding the sheer greatness of God.

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. Walking in complete freedom (mind, body, soul, spirit).

4. Bringing people freedom via speaking through and anointing in healing.

5. Speaking truth. Having great wisdom that will reform people, the church and society.
