People have favorite bible characters. Sounds kinda weird like choosing favorite sports athletes and cartoon characters and stuff.
I've never had one because I honestly have a poor handle on the Word. My knowledge of the bible is laughable. But I always had one favorite verse, Jeremiah 29:11 (For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.). I randomly came across this verse when I was struggling with life like 4 years ago.
During Passion Week, I randomly decided to read the book of Jeremiah - and now I know that this is the right book of the bible for me to read right now. Jeremiah struggles with being incompetent (like all bible leaders), passion for God, and spreading the word of God. I feel the same struggles infiltrate my life.
I've honestly only read 2 chapters, but I'll let you all know how it goes. So far, so good. He's the biblical Kobe to me. (JK that's blasphemous)
