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 accepted Jesus Christ in my life since I was five. It was a miracle that happened in my family, and I knew it was the hands of God that did it. From that time, I wanted to know more about my God.

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

Hasanna church, Miami Florida
I served as an usher in 1999 – 2001

Oasis church, Pembroke Pines FL
Data entry in 2017

Tabernacle of Glory, Miami FL
Shekinah, Evangelism, Follow-up call and Prayer ministry.

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

When I got married, I learned to embrace changes in my life.

When I gave birth to my children, I experienced how to put others need before myself.

For the past months, I realized it’s best to let go of past and move forward to better things God has in store for me.

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:

The time I go through financially difficulty help me to have a compassion heart on those who are going through the same situation.

Couple years ago I couldn’t walk straight because I had injured my back, and when I see people on the walker, I try to encourage them that God will heal them. I have compassion for them, and I keep them in my prayers.

I lost my home because I was going through financial hard time. Therefore, I feel compassion for those who are going through the same situation. I wish I was able to help them financially so the only way I’m able to is to pray for them.

Wrapping It Up

2. My Relationship with Others

  • Your Kids Second
  • Everyone Else After those
