Love and Friendship

1 Samuel 18:3

“Then Jonathan and David made a covenant because he loved him as his own soul.”

All of us have friends. We go to church, we go out to eat and go shopping with our friends. We have fun with our friends through sports, games and just plain being together. How strong are our friendships? Can they withstand heartache, sorrow and setbacks? What do we give in a friendship? When we are selfless and loving to our friends, this will cultivate a warm, reliable friendship. Love is the strength that holds friendships together. The key to a strong friendship can be found in Scripture’s words concerning Jonathan’s feelings for David. “He loved him as his own soul.”
