Which Bible Character Do You Feel Is Most Like You?
 
Aside from the obvious-Jesus. Which other Bible Character can you identify with?

For me it would be Peter, as I have some of his temperment which hopefully by the Grace of God is under a bit more control.

While not going through what Job went through, I do identify with Job in that he was an ordinary guy trying to serve the Lord, and yet troubles befell him.
Even though he didn't deny nor curse the Lord, he had this question.
Why Lord?

Is there a Bible Character you can't identify with?

Who is it?

Depends on what day it is....


Some days I feel brave as Joshua, some as old as Moses. Some days I feel as full of faith as Abraham and other days like a Doubting Thomas. Some days I feel as if I have the wisdom of Solomon and other days feel like an impetuous Simon Peter. There are days I feel as David did in battle, other days I am the Disciple who feld from the Lord. Then there are the days I speak like Paul with clarity and boldness, then there are days I am Balaam's donkey. :tiphat

The bible character I identify mostly with is Peter.Some days I feel so bold and ready to preach to the masses and other days I feel like a failure who has denied the faith.

Does the bible say anything about the fleas washed out from between the toes of the disciples? If so, I can identify with those little buggers...
