Did you know, every body can relate their personality to one, or more of the Apostles? All the personalities in the world, are within these twelve.
I love the Bible. There is so much within it. I don't think in a thousand years, all the gold within its pages could be found.

Who do you think you match up with?

Well personally i do not know the qualities of the apostle near as much as some other ppl in the bible. I am very much like david, i even say things and then when i read psalms i am shocked to see david had said the very same thingO_O, this has happened on more than one occasion. I also see Job in me because i want to trust in god as he did, in all that happened to him he did not sin against god.... Such passion and devotion! I also see paul in me as well because i know i will suffer greatly for the name of the lord.

Luke 7

And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of ointment, 38And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. 39Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

Judging by the two responses so far, either the statement in the OP in too limited, or there are more than 12 apostles.

There's a serious question here. There are three options. 1. the OP is too limited, as many of us identify with someone other than the 12. 2. There are more apostles, or 3. In addition to the person you stated you identify with, you also identify with one of the 12. At the risk of hijacking the thread, which of the 3 do you think it is?

am i even worthy to liken myself to the one i did?

i consider by my response i fall in to option 1 though there may be someone who can answer this question i can not liken myself to an Apostle and shared what i had considered before this thread came to be :)

When Jesus knocks at the door of your heart (Rev. 3:20) and He comes in to have dinner, you can wash His feet. I doubt He would not mind some ointment and some kisses, either. Yes, any of us is worthy to identify with loving Jesus.
