What Personality and God Given Talents do I Have? Which one describes you best? First decide, are you a people person or more of a behind the scenes person? Extroverts are people persons; introverts are behind the scenes non- people persons. That will help you. Then look over the strengths and weakness. You may find that you might be a combo as well. After you know how God has created you and placed His gifting inside you. You can say this is me! Then you can be the authentic you without feeling bad about yourself anymore. If God created me like this, I guess He likes me just the way I am. Keep in mind that one’s passion God gives you can override the personality test. God has ways to stretch us and equips us to do far more than we can think or imagine. The animals that are beside each personality will help you understand how they function in the animal world. Of course the Lion roars and is the take charge type, while the otter is playful and fun, when the beaver is detailed and continually busy building his projects; the golden retriever is a loyal companion and very laid back and relaxed. After you figure out what personality you have, go to the next section and find out what gifting's God has placed in you: you may have more than one of these. Find the two or three that describe you and email me your results. I can tell you more about yourself once you decide. As you see, you have many giftings and callings in your life; your personality is how God has wired you to be, so relax you are who you are supposed to be. |
