I think my favorite is the exchange between Jesus and the woman at the well - there is something so heartbreaking about that woman and Jesus is kind to her. My very close second would be the woman that touched His robe when he was on his way to heal someone else. I love that he calls her "daughter" as with her illness in that culture - she most likely hadn't been treated with any kindness or gentleness in all the years she was sick. For Old Testament - I'm all about King David - he must have been hot. . . .seriously.

thats a good one
mine is jonah or job

very good lessons to learn
but you pick a good one

Jonah's tale has a very personal meaning to me. and i love Elijah's ministry and experiences with God. Ezekiel's attempt to describe Holy Glory...poor guy, how can one put that into description?! i delight in Paul's letters to Thessalonia depicting Christ's Resurrection and return. i like how God picked David for king, even though he was out in the fields and overlooked initially.
i also love that Moses had a "crutch" and doubted his calling, but God turned his crutch into a source/symbol of His mighty power.
But, my favorite story (hard to pick one) right now is the story of Rahab(from the book of Joshua), the woman in Jericho who helped the Israelite spies. she was a prostitute living in a town contained (literally by the walls) nothing but idolatry and immorality, but she said to the spies "i have heard of your mighty God" and helped harbor the spies. BY HER FAITH, she and her children, were spared of the invasion. the same red rope that helped the spies climb out of her house, was how the invading army knew to spare her. THE BLOODLINE OF CHRIST, because the Lord didn't just save her, He gave her a prince of Judah (Salmon) to be her husband and the child they conceived (Boaz) went on to continue the geneology of Jesus (Matthew, 1)!
i just think that's so cool, image...Jesus' grandmother was a prostitute...love covers a multitude of sins, and our God is mighty to save!
i see now, by the people i've chosen, that i just love it when God uses those who no one would expect.even Jesus was not what most people were expecting. the losers, the bruised, the broken, in their weakness His strength is shown. in their humility, His power displayed. that's a good lesson for me, good question, goodnews!

The tower of Babel. It is a constant reminder to me, no matter how intelligent "man" thinks he is, God is still in control.

The Cross of Christ. It's the greatest story (and sacrifice) ever told.
