Friends In The Night
August 17, 2011

Do you have someone you could call in the middle of the night if you needed help? Bible teacher Ray Pritchard calls these people “2 a.m. friends.” If you have an emergency, this kind of friend would ask you two questions: “Where are you?” and “What do you need?”

Friends like that are crucial during difficult times. Jonathan was that type of friend for David. Jonathan’s father, King Saul—who was filled with envy at David’s popularity and God’s blessing on him—tried to kill him (1 Sam. 19:9-10). David escaped and asked his friend for help (ch. 20). While David hid in the field, Jonathan sat at dinner with his father and quickly realized that Saul did indeed intend to kill David (vv.24-34).

Because of their deep friendship, Jonathan “was grieved for David” (v.34). He warned him of his father’s plan and told him he should leave (vv.41-42). David recognized what a good friend he had in Jonathan. The Bible says they wept together, “but David more so” (v.41). Their souls were “knit” together.

Do you have loving Christian friends you can count on in a crisis? Are you someone your friends would call a “2 a.m. friend”?

Thank God for you, good friend of mine,
Seldom is friendship such as thine;
How very much I wish to be
As helpful as you’ve been to me. —Clark

A true friend stands with us in times of trial.

Read: 1 Samuel 20:30-42

The soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. —1 Samuel 18:1

Bible in a year:
Psalms 97-99; Romans 16

I totally agree with this:

You Should Go on an Australian Cruise

You're the kind of person who is interested in everything. You have a hardcore desire to experience it all.
You fit in perfectly in the largest cities in the world, but you also cherish your time in nature.

You are an active and energetic person. You don't want to lounge around on a cruise ship... you want to go diving or kangaroo watching!
You want your vacation to be completely action packed. You'll sleep when you're back at home.

You Should Go on a Disney Cruise

You are family oriented, fun loving, and truly a kid at heart.
For you, a cruse is less about the destination and more about the total experience.

You love the idea of a cruise with a little nostalgia and lots of activities for everyone.
A Disney cruise will wow you, entertain you, and give you memories to last a lifetime.

It doesn’t offer a WESTPAC “tour”.

I did three of ‘em. Now I’m too old for one of those WESTPAC tours. :^)
