If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why?
There’s so many people like that are historical figures that I would love to meet of course Jesus Christ, King David, King Solomon, Moses. But if I was to look outside of the Bible maybe it would be Cleopatra, William Shakespeare, Beethoven, maybe even Monet. Also, I would love to have met Elvis Presley. So out of that list who would it be and why, I think I would go king David.
King David was obviously a king that suffered and struggled with his love for God. His love for God was so deep that it was ingrained in him and he fought to be a good king, but also fell into doing bad things. But it never changed his admiration and love for God.
As a fellow Christian and fellow sinner, I find David as the most interesting and relatable person in the whole Bible. He represents something that’s bigger than what we understand and it’s something I can relate to in my own life.
I love God. God is my center. He is my foundation without him, I am nothing and though I am a flawed individual. God has given me this love in me that I just surrender everything. I am to him it’s beautiful and that is why I would choose David. Because again, even though David is flawed, he loved God so much that Jesus Christ refers to him as the one after my own heart in the New Testament. That is something that I strive for to be the one after Jesus Christ’s own heart.
