Variety

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

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

I was born into a christian family but firm commitment came after i experienced the direct intervention of God in my affairs through prayers

1 Celestial Church Of Christ (CCC) – Senior Evangelist

2. St Andrew’s Anglican Church- Lay Reader

1. Family love from grandmother, uncles and family showed me love that gave me a unique self of belonging

2. Wonderful experience in Kings College Secondary School Boarding House that exposed me to the world and civic responsibilities

3.Repeated experience of God answering my prayers which gave me confidence that there was nothing I could not achieve through prayers.

1. The death of my little sister in my hands by electrocution. Since she was so vibrant and full of life one minute and was gone the next minute , it showed me how transcient life could be and taught me to do the best for others whenever I have the opportunity.

2. When my father had no money to pay school fees and had to go and borrow from all sorts of people. It made me realize that lack is not necessarily as a result of laziness but sometimes is as a result of the circumstances beyond a mans control and made me sympathetic to those who are poor.

3. On a trip once when I was very young (15) and traveling alone, I was dropped in the wrong place at night and I was lost. The people rallied round and helped me to get to my destination that night.That made me start having sympathy for strangers, the lost, the homeless and created a desire to help whenever I meet someone lost / displaced.
