The Bible is the only place where we can find the character of God. We see man is made in His image and man has a body, soul, and spirit. Man also has parts of his personality he has to deal with; anger, joy, sorrow, grief, peace, and humor. God also has a real personality with real Character traits. He has anger, He grieves, He experiences sorrow, and He also enjoys His creation.
Jesus told a fisherman to catch a fish and the tax money would be in his mouth. Fish spit out stuff they do not eat. I am sure Peter wondered at this command. Peter did go cast his hook and did bring up a fish, but was it not a wonderful way to prove to Peter that even in fishing, his area of expertise, Jesus was King.
I smile when I think of Peter dropping his hook into the water wondering what would happen. Peter knew fish. Peter obeyed but what was he thinking when he removed his hook and pulled money out of the fishes mouth.

Aren't you internet savvy now? I am still trying to figure out how to comment on other people's blogs. Hopefully, you won't get this as many times as I have wrote it.
Congrats on the blog!
I am so glad God put Peter in the Bible. He was so human and yet God used him greatly.
It looks like it worked. Yeah, but I did forget to sign it and I meant to say have written it.
Love you.
