B I I Samuel 20:32-42" J And it came to pass when he had s : made an end of speaking unto Saul! y I the son of Jonathan who knit with! ^jthc of David and Jonathan !o* ed him as his own son. I Sam. 18:1.. This friendship began the first time j they saw each other. It was what some, of us might call love at first ! sight. They were both young, both e brave soldiers and had many things ' 1 in common. David had just won b>> great victory over Goiiath and all f j the people were singing his praises. .! Jonathan was handsome ami highI mettled, the pride of the army and j- the heir apparent to the throne of his i father, King Saul. "And the soul t.f { , Jonathan was knit to the soul of David." David said of Jonathan aiv ter his death on Mount Zelhea "I am distressed for thee my brother lj Jonathan; very pleasant hast thy s I been unto me, thy love for me was . wonderful. David had given offense; . to Saul. There was no special reason j for this, hut Saul ever impatient, , fancied that David was his rival for the throne. IK drove him from hi> courts and pursued him even into the. wilderness. David gathered a hand . of men about him and showed he .! could successfully command even the , desperate outlaws who sought revenge with him. Saul pursued him constantly. Though David spared Saul's lif.I j and showed his high regard for hire. 1 as king, he v. a - hunted like some traitor or robber. Hoping however to turn the mind of Saul David capujied a city of the Phillistines. e\- . ' peeling that this action would win ] his favor before Saul. When he ; quired of God however he was told j that this would do no good and make ( | no difference to Saul w ho would par- , I sue him. And Sard did so. coming ag- , in with his arirnes to capture David.! : who was in the wilderness. David a as! 'discouraged and felt alone. Ho was! i in great: danger ? f losing his hold up- ?' ! (Jii God .and doing foolish thing-. Jon-j ] than jit ' Hiv rime visits David and < | proves himself a true friend. H< , | came seeking David at great risk to j ' himself for Saul Upiild have killed ( Jonathan as quiekiy as he would,, have? Killed David. He' met Uav.ii in . th*. wood.- and talkeei to him IIo j yielded up lus hopes of the kuigdomjj to David only asking David not ' > kill him on becoming king as wa- { the custom of the times. We are? toldi ^ that they parted never to meet but , once again. That was when Saul was' h pursuing Daviel anel Jonathan wentj. out to comfort him. fi :ding h: w in the wilderness. We are not tolel what he spoke about, hut we are told that he strengthened his faith in God, in other words be* brought David hack to his road to strength and renewed purpose. This is the crownii g glory of this exquisite story, for abo\ all, true friendships must be based on religion and must help friends near to God. '"True friend-hip must prove itself in practical ways." if our friendships are to express God's i proviuentiai purposes t'noy must to practical as well as sentimental. Jonathan seemingly did little for i >:: ^.?1 at this time but talk and show him j | I OWII 3UU1. I IHU M'nn> LI' IIUVC I . ships \vc must forget that our love l! of the ' chief value. Yet Jonathan gave gifts ;<> David and ever risked his life to I warn hint of Haul's wrath. And David ! years later protected Jonathans family and provided lor Jonathan's lame m servants and a place at the king's own table. So this friendship had its practical side Just so there are practical deeds of friendship we will need to do. Friendshipj is a long road with many up? and ' d??vv:,>. ar-i ve nm-t be willing to) or t ne: 1 v. j needs them. HERMAN* WII.COX ' ? | Offered $8,500 for Home Made of Boxes Los Angelee.
