DIVINE FRIENDSHIP

We had a wonderful day at Church yesterday and I'm so excited about the good day with Dr. Don Sisk.  It was a blessing!  What a dear man of God.  I'm praying that God will allow us to do more for Missions because of the giving of our people.  Today, I am in I Samuel, and the thought is this:

DIVINE FRIENDSHIP- In I Samuel 18:1 it says "...that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul."  Friendships are a tremendous gift from God.  The Bible says:  Pro 18:24  "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother."  and... Pro 17:17 " A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity."  In the lowest ebb of David's young life, a dear friend came through for him.... Jonathan.  He loved David as he loved his own soul.  If you have a dear friend, then you have been blessed of the LORD.  Many people do not have a close friend.  Here we see Divine Friendship given by the LORD to David and Jonathan.  They were both there for each other.  Are you "there" for someone in your life?  Why not be the divine friend that someone else needs rather than think about the friend you don't have.  He that would have friends, must show himself friendly.  Why not be a friend to someone in need, today!

Have a great day.  Pastor Mike Mutchler
