“I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; you have
been very pleasant to me; your love for me was wonderful, surpassing the love
of women.”
2 Samuel 1:26
David lamented over Saul and
Jonathan after they died. He honored Saul in his lament, but he celebrated his
best friend Jonathan. David knew that he owed his life to Jonathan. Jonathan’s
love and companionship helped him become the man that he was. Friends play such
an important role in shaping our spiritual destinies. Choose your friends
wisely. Your friends make a difference in your life. Make sure your friends
draw you closer to the Lord, not farther away from him.
Father, we thank You for our friends’ love and
companionship. Help us to choose our friends wisely. Friends make a difference
in our lives. May we make sure that we surround ourselves with people that
encourage us to walk closely to You and to do Your will. In Jesus’ name we
pray. Amen.
