Wallah I wish I had more relationships like David and Jonathan. They had love and loyalty for each other but more importantly those aspects was centred around God. Jonathan knowing that it was in God's sovereign plan that David would be King still actively love and support him is the type of loyalty any Christian should aspire for. How often are my relationships based upon a hedonistic past or stupid banter? Improvements have been made I reckon, but I'm still much more a lover of people than of God. This goes back to my idol of belonging. Still, I trust that God has blessed me with resources to grow in more in diligent love. I just need to persist initiative.
amen and amen!
