“After David had finished talking with Saul, he met Jonathan, the king’s son. There was an immediate bond between them, for Jonathan loved David.” 1 Samuel 18:1 NLT.
Jonathan himself was a great warrior and destined to be king, but he recognized the seed of God planted in David. Jonathan watered that seed and watched David become what God called him to be.
We are called to “Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honoring each other”. Romans 12:10 NLT. We must honor people for who they are and look for a speck of gold in everyone we meet.
O how the glory of God would be released in our midst if we looked for the good in everyone instead of constantly looking for negative traits. It would change how we feel about others and how others feel about us.
“Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters.” Hebrews 13:1 NLT.
Look for the seed of God in others and water that seed building your relationship with that person, and furthering the kingdom of God. We are the body of Christ and are to be one spirit. Let’s help develop one another to serve the Lord.
